It is Christmas season and I want gifts from the people I am dating. None of them gave me anything for the holidays so I will next them. Is it wrong to expect gifts or money from my dates? I am dating 5 right now. Two of them for 3 weeks and three of them for 4 weeks. A girl needs to feel special this holiday season. Is that wrong?

Yes. Its wrong.

 

But if they are too cheap to get me anything now, how can I have a future with these people?

But what about my feelings? If they don't give me gifts, they must not care about me.

Unless you're dating exclusively, you can't expect very much.

 

A card would be nice, but the gift is optional.

 

Do they know you're dating other people?

 

Did you give the guys you're dating anything?

 

 

Take care.

If you're dating 5 guys, you can't care very much about them...

Why would I get them a gift if they didn't care about me enough to give me gifts? Duh!

If you want to feel special . . . you need to be special -- not demanding, entitled or expectant of people you barely know.

 

Is it wrong to expect gifts or money from my dates? -- Gifts and money from "dates" isn't what dating is about . . . that's called something else.

But my girlfriends got gifts and it is the holiday season. Everyone give gifts to people they care about? So they must not care about me?

Has anyone ever told you that you're selfish?

 

In case no one has, I'll tell you:

 

 

You're selfish.

 

 

Take care.

It sounds to me as though you know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

 

You are dating several people for weeks at a time, can't you make a decision on which one you like the best and stick to one of them?

 

You cant even date one of them exclusively and yet you want presents from all of them?!

 

Your behaviour is rude and selfish and no wonder they wont give you presents or money... MONEY?! Why would someone you date give you money?

 

It works both ways you know. What have you done for them? Precisely nothing I would bet.

You wont be having future with these people. You are dating 5 dudes. Date a one. Then think about future. Date that dude for months. Then expect gifts if they have money.

So you didn't get them gifts but expect them to get you gifts? You don't like them enough to get them gifts but expect them to like you enough?

 

You are dating multiple men. Dating isn't to get free meals and gifts. If I were any of them, I'd next you.

So you are saying they have money to give presents to everyone but they ran out of money when it is time to get me a present? So that means I am the last, right? Means I must be like the last person they care about? Why would I continue dating them if they don't care about me?
