But I'm mostly thinking about kids parties. Showers, weddings etc it really depends on who it is. If it's my cousin having a shower for her 4th kids in five years, no, my best friend in another state having her first, definitely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-when-you-dont-attend#post-2606769 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 19:46:13 +0000 cat620 2606769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on the person and how close we are. This happens a lot with kid birthday parties. We get invited to a lot, but we can't attend all of them. If it's a good friend of mine, I'll give them a present even if we can't make the party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-when-you-dont-attend#post-2601323 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 18:00:00 +0000 Boogs 2601323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you're invited to an event or party, do you usually still give a gift even if you don't attend? </p> <p>I find the gift giving is more situational for me. If it's someone who usually doesn't give a gift when they don't attend, I don't bother myself. But, when it's something like a shower we usually give a gift regardless. </p>
