Not everyone is good at giving gifts. Obviously, for some people out there, it's their bread and butter. Their love language, if you will. If that's you, congratulations. However, the rest of us (myself included) were not born with the "good gift-giver" gene. As someone who was once gifted a dictionary and a pencil case holder for my 15th birthday, not to mention a DVD of Inside Out for my 21st birthday, I was not raised to be good at this. That's why when this time of year rolls around, I get immediately tense. As I've gotten older, the good gift-givers go even more "all out" while folks like me never know what to get people. I'm sure one day, I will end up in someone's anonymous Reddit post about a gift I gave that totally missed the mark.
These folks shared their worst gift stories via this r/AskReddit thread. Keep scrolling below for the full stories. When you're done, check out this list of the top Karens of the week.
