Question by a friend...

Had been asked a question by a friend... find it really interesting and would like to share with all...

I'd always enjoy chatting with ppl, understand other and understand myself...

He was pretty upset that night, and wanted to get things off his chest and there I was...
I understand that he was upset about how his past gfs treated him...
He explained how his ex-s would always be buying the next bf expensive gifts... in fact when he was saving every penny to spend on his gf, they were spending all their $$ on the other guys...

LOSER~!

Of cuz I didn't say that, well I'm also every much guilty as charged LOL :)

I told him to clam down and see the way I see it...

Perceived Value & True Value

The meaning of these two terms are subjective to many...
If looked at the true value of the gifts, without saying, he is much inferior...
but the the value of gifts do not lies in the true value but its perceived value (unlike valuation or many other cases)

If they were to buy him those expensive stuffs would you be happier???
Simple answer is no...
So the gifts they gave him had more heart and soul... :)

Sound sweet?
I'd stop there with him... but let me continue here...

If you measure the anger involved when his ex-s spend on other guys' gifts... and add to the equation...
Simple answer is yes...
So the gifts they gave him were meaningless...

But this is the cruelty of life...
