Someone gives you a gift (family or friend)

You think wow they chose this for me because they think I would love it that’s so nice
Or that somehow it relates to me, in their eyes
So nice
Then 2 years later they give you THE SAME DAMN GIFT so obviously it was never about me then?

They just have some room of gifts somewhere that they stock up on ready to give out for birthdays

I’d rather just not get a gift at all
Why do they do it

Also I should’ve known because these people don’t even talk to me the rest of the year

I just want to know who I am
