Why do we as sisters like gifts especially from brothers we don't " like that way" !!!! These brothers make it so difficult for us....... Forgive here I am trying to blame it on their generous nature....mercy!!they buy us nice things boots, christian Dior perfume wow! we accept knowing full well that there is no chance of belovedosing at all!!! Help me out here people. Is it good or bad practice, with reasons I beg! Please .

If the guy is chasing you, then accepting the gift comes across as an endorsement.

Remember this guy would have searched out the gift and chosen it with care and probably spent a lot of both time and money on this gift. It is important therefore to know whether this guy:

1) is looking to go out with you
it may be impolite to refuse the first gift, but definitely do not position yourself with your mouth wide open to suck this brother dry if you will go out with him. It makes you very cheap, a vampire and if you eventually do go out with him your price in his eyes will not be too high as he would have been able to 'buy' you.

2) just wants to be good friends
Legitimate to accept provided you will also reciprocate. Make sure you are matching your receiving to your giving, rather than being sly and declaring that you have not asked him to give you anything.

3) only wants to 'slay' you.
Tell him to stuff it or you are a prostitute!!

ACTS 20:35 SAYS "....REMEMBER THE WORDS OF THE LORD JESUS, HOW HE SAID, IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE"

mmmmmmmmmmh its a message. sisters dont easily accept gifts. DONT BE SIMPLE MINDED!!!!!!!!

hahahaha!!!! brothers as well should understand that we are looking at them and if they continue giving gifts their money will finish, and sometimes thats why some of them become bitter, sister also we should refuse the gifts when we see that they will bring some small small

It's a very deep message. Pastor has said all that needs to be said about the matter. And as Pippa said we should not be simple minded.
