To buy him a present or not

Hi! My first response would have been to get him a resume writing guide! haha The first poster is right, you should set aside your animosity. Your aunt will have to see for herself what he's about before she'll do anything about it. Buy him a little inexpensive token gift, like a box of candy or some mixed nuts, and that will make you and your aunt feel better! Best to you!

If it were me I would get him a present it doesn't matter rather you like him or not if your aunt is happy that should make you happy families seem to think that just because someone in the family finds someone to make them happy and everybody else dislikes him/her they should not reconize them.I say also if you feel that this is what is going on then bring it up gradualy in a conversation when your aunt is there to here what he says for example you could say I have this friend who is dating my uncle because he has money and they don't really care for him what do you think I shoud do make sure to direct it to him and see what his response is if that is what he is doing then he will be put on the spot I hope this helps.

I had the same thought as the person who said you should get a resume guide for the shiftless boyfriend! There is probably some great tongue in cheek gift that looks like a great thing but really is a private little "raspberry" for him! However, this is the season when we are theoretically supposed to be more charitable and nice. Maybe you should try to see it all from a different perspective? After all, she is a grown up and she might be very well aware of what you guys think about the boyfriend but not worried about it. She might be having a ball. It might be an entirely different experience from her perspective, and maybe he really loves her, etc etc etc Or, maybe he's just like Kevin Federline and she really should dump him, but it's Christmas-time. You know your family dynamic better than anyone else. If you don't want to get the guy a gift and it wouldn't present any family issues for you to not get him one, then just don't do it. If you feel like you must, there is sure to be some token gift you can offer him, maybe like a gift certificate for movie rentals that (theoretically) they can enjoy together?? Anyway, best of luck to you on this and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Ok tough one but I would not get him something as he is only the Boyfriend and if he was nice Person then it would be different The only thing I can suggest is that is you buy a Present for them together then that way your Auntie won't get hurt

i dont think it's realy required of you to give him a present. i also dont think your aunt will be offended. best thing you can do is to be civil to him. as for the gift, just greet him, it should be enough

Christmas is a day of joy and you should forget about hating him for only this day. Just buy something nice but not expensive.

Are they living together? If so, buy a joint gift for them to share. If they don't live together, buy him something along the lines of a bottle of aftershave, cheap aftershave. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy him much. Sorry to hear that your aunt is wearing rose colored glasses when it comes to this loser. Merry Christmas.

That depends. Do you buy gifts for your other aunt/uncle's significant others? If so, she will feel her man was left out. Even if you don't like him, you shouldn't treat him poorly infront of her. She needs to learn that lesson on her own. You don't want her hating you for it.

if he makes your aunt happy you need to be happy for her if he is useing her she will find out soon enough maybe getting him a cheap little gift won't hurt just so it makes you aunt happy.

yeh ... you should buy him a present ... it's CHRISTMAS ..

That problem can be easily solved. I would go simple and get him a christmas card. That way you can still be nice and your aunt wont be hurt. PLus he will know that he is not liked that much.

maybe buy something for your aunt and then a gift for them together. That way he's not completely left out and you're not actually buying for just him. Like maybe a food basket or one of those gift sets you can get from walmart with hot chocolate, cups etc... christmas is the time for giving and family, do it for your aunt not him.

i dont no about that

I agree with what a lot of people have said. Buy him a token gift or gift card. My family used to buy those big tins of popcorn(that had the 3 different flavors) and gave those as gifts. Simple yet satisfying.

Buy him a present my family is in the same situation just now but i will be buying each of them a present as it will make them feel guilty. So you should buy him a present it might bring use closer together.

i think it is a good idea

hei i think you just buy him something ..not anything costly..just for the sake..beause u really care for your aunty....

Surely get him a gift because your aunty is liking him.And if you are not giving any gift your aunty will feel a lot.

a thought always is appreciate. Good NATO them to all!: -)

if you dont want to buy him something you could always make him something. sometimes homemade gifts make people feel more appreciated.
