Q: Waiting For a Christmas Card
asked by: C S on December 21st, 2004

:( I sent a christmas card out dec. 11 to someone I had been swapping e-mails with for a few months, and even had a pleasant lunch with. But, after ten days, I have yet to hear a reply on my christmas card and I feel devastated, like the person really doesn't like me.
And, no, I haven't completed all my christmas cards yet. Is this an unreasonable expectation. Does no reply realy mean I am not liked?

Don't Take It Personally
8) I know that's easy for me to say, but really don't take it personally. The person may not have had a chance to send out their cards yet, especially if they have a lot on their plate. I know I am really bad during the holidays, I wind up trying to do so many things at the same time and end up forgetting alot of important things and people. People can be really scatter brained during the holidays. Either they are waiting until after the holidays to do something special or they waited until the last minute to send out a card to you which of course means that you will not get it until after the holidays anyway. Please don't let it get you down. I know it hard, but concentrate on something else and think about enjoying your holiday. What is they say " when you let a problem alone, it resolves itself" let it alone.

Some people just dont send christmas cards out or maybe theyve just been busy, I sent out like 30 and I got about 5 back lol so dont take it to heart, I wouldnt judge if a person likes you or not by them sending u a christmas card.
