An Offer I Should Refuse?
He likes you right?

Posted by dolluxeLol @ suspicious and paranoid, how come?
Kinda weird since its your bf's brother but.. well it's Christmas..
[If it was me though I'd be suspicious/paranoid lmao. Scorpio dominant so...]
😄
Posted by AfternoonDelights22Lol, I drove around a bit in the parking lot, and the brakes do work. He's a libra and I'm an Aries. We have had our moments, and I'm sure there will be more of those moments, but I see him as family because of how I feel about his brother.

That's a big gift for your brothers girlfriend
Posted by Prince_PiscesSo you wouldn't feel odd receiving an expensive present when you didn't give one of nearly the same monetary value?
No gift is too big to accept LOL!
Posted by TheLibraMudraAs I went to drive it around, my boyfriend went with me. I asked him, "Did you know about this??" He said he did. I asked, "And you just allowed him to give me a car without telling me?" "I thought it would be better for you to actually be surprised instead of pretending to be surprised." He agreed with me that the gift is very generous of his brother.
I'm sure it was a conversation between your man and his brother. It's not that weird. It would be a little strange if it was not a conversation they had.
Just let it be.
Enjoy your new ride.
For the car key, His stepfather made me a keychain with a glass, jade bead he made himself. It obvious the family is giving me the car with their blessing. Maybe I should keep my doubts to myself until it sinks in and I have some perspective.
The minute you said he was a libra it made total sense 😄 just enjoy!
Posted by LillyPetalSounds like a beautiful gift right down to the key chain. These people clearly care about you. Enjoy your car.

Am I the only one not taking crazy pills here?
Should you accept a car from your bfs older brother? NO!
I don't mean to be a Debbie downer but unless you're upper middle class and have the money to actually afford your own car you should not be accepting expensive gifts off no one. This is his trump card over you, Librans are notorious for being catalysts and creating leverage believe me you won't hear the end of it..
I've watched too many judge Judy episodes.

The family gave you the car, not the brother in law. The previous owner was the brother ... but, the gift came from the family.
Above, you admitted that it was a family gift.
So, why mislead people by telling them it was a gift from the brother?
there's a big difference between a personal gift from the brother, and a family gift.
Are you trying to invoke drama, and get people to talk about how the brother must secretly like you, or something?
Additionally, if you aren't in it all the way with your boyfriend, and you let them give you such an expensive gift ... then this will likely come back to kick you in the ass.
You're asking if you should take such a big gift .... and the answer can only be determined by how seriously you are valuing your boyfriend.
Because be real here ... you wouldn't have gotten this gift if it weren't for the boyfriend. this isn't about you to his family ..... it's about him.
So, you need to acknowledge the reality of a gift of this magnitude.
Posted by LillyPetalYes, you keep it.
I got a car for Christmas.
My boyfriend's older brother gave it to me.
It was his car before he got his new one.
The key was wrapped and stuffed in my Christmas stocking.
I cried when I saw the key and he said "it [the car] is yours." I was shaking and I gave him the biggest hug.
I really need a car, and I was on the market for one.
But now I am wondering if keeping it is the right thing to do. He could have sold his car and got very good money for it. I don't want to offend him by refusing, but I'm wondering if this gift is too big to accept.
I'm still in shock that I got it. I actually feel a bit nauseous.
What are your thoughts? Any advice?
They obviously consider you family.
If you're okay with that, then take the damned
car.
I loathe (and this isn't directed at you-- just
speaking generally) this kind of 'humility'
because its rarely humility, at all, once it makes
it out into the open.
I'm fairly certain that a good deal of thought
went into this decision-- it *is* a big deal.
But that end of it is none if your business.
You're fortunate indeed, not because you
acquired a car, but because you've acquired a
second family that cares about you.
🤗 yay.

Thread Title: An Offer I Should Refuse?
I'd like to know what the offer is/was ... is there a contingency with the car?
You didn't say "gift" .. you said "offer"
So, there must be more to this that you aren't saying ... why would you say "offer"
So, you didn't actually get the car, rather, it was offered to you? What are the conditions in which it is being offered to you?

While that all may be somewhat true, that's not the concern she was expressing. You don't know what kind of thought went into it or whether it was thorough. I'd feel feel weird about it too unless it was entirely negligible to them. She's not a Leo where it's a just a reward for your awesome presence lolclick to expand
Capricorn: looking gift horses in the mouth, since the dawn of time.
Thanks, Dad. 😐
But I addressed that-- it's not her business, unless she is not ready
to a part of that family.
And from her posts, I think she is ready, and has been for some time.
As part of that family, she will have *ample* opportunity to give back.
Trying to control their generosity, by deciding what is best for them,
is just arrogant.
Just think, Chase.. if you'd been born a little earlier, you too
would have a Pisces moon.
Pity.
What kind of car? Regardless that's a big gift but if you do feel bad about it you should've told him that you would like to pay atleast half of the blue book value of the car but be respectful and if he stlll refuses then take it and say thank you atleast you won't feel like you owe him anything.
If i was offered that type of gift I'd refuse just cause I don't want people telling me You owe me.
Welp looks like you're in for good now. Only way out is getting wacked.
Posted by cheekyfaerie
.... in the spirit it was meant. Whatever that happens to be.
this is the part I have a problem with here, since she neglected to tell us.
She did say, "offer" ... so the intent might not just be a gift of generosity, there might be an ulterior motive.
From what I have read in her history .... this is an arranged marriage she is getting into, so there's likely to be way more to it than she is leading on.
Merry Christmas Lily... 🙂
Posted by Nightcap2It was a gift, not an offer.
It's not a gift horse unless you know the circumstances which none of us do. "Unless she's ready to be a part of the family." Now that's arrogant if anything lol..that's a value judgment made by you which is mostly conjecture. No one's questioning the intent of the generosity ( you usually miss the point) but rather how comfortable and appropriate the offer is due to it likely being outsized.
And outsized... what does that mean, exactly-- overly generous?
lol
Yer funny.
Posted by cheekyfaerieI'm pretty sure she meant gift. ^^Posted by P-AngelHmm. See what you n Chance are on about now. Was giving her use of the word "offer" the benefit of the doubt as maybe just a poor choice of wording, but I wasn't aware of that bit of the backstory.Posted by cheekyfaerie

Agree with P and Monty.
This isn't just a car, this is the gift of acceptance. If you accept them back, it's yours. It all comes down to whether or not this is just a boyfriend or if he's your person.
Soo... is he your person, Lilypetal?

It was a powerful moment because it was the first time we showed each other that we like each other as people and as family.
My boyfriend told me this morning (when I brought up my feelings about receiving such an expensive present) that his mom was emotional when she saw us hugging because she wants nothing more than for all of us to be a happy family. She's an Aries and was a single parent for a long while, so she's very close to her sons, and she's been a powerful supporter of my relationship with her Capricorn and her libra's relationship with his cancer.
It never crossed my mind that he might "like" me. My dilemma was that this present is the biggest gift I have ever gotten from someone else, it is much needed, but that I couldn't never return the favor. It was an emotional day, and I was (and still am) overwhelmed by his generosity.
The car was the Libra's. It was his car. Months ago, he spoke about selling it as he was in search of a new car. The stepfather made wood presents for everyone else, and he also does glass work, so he made me the keychain. It definitely adds the feeling of the family giving me their blessing. The libra could have sold it and got some kind of money for it, so I'm humbled that he chose to just give it to me.
The libra discussed his plans with the family, and apparently they thought it was a great idea (not unlike how I discussed getting a camera for the libra's girlfriend and they all supported my idea.)
So, it was from him.

We have an odd relationship in that we bicker "like siblings" (as my boyfriend says), but we don't express our feelings to each other - he's the brother I know likes me but he never says he does, and I'm the sister he knows likes him but I never say I do. The only way we both know that we don't hate each other is that the Aries mom tells us in secret. "He (the Libra) really does like you. He says that you're super smart and are a really great person. Even if he doesn't show it." And I'm sure she's told him similar things about me.
No second thoughts please. It's yours 🙂

If he couldn't afford it, he wouldn't have done it. Maybe the trade in value was low and he figured better to keep it and give it to someone who needs it than a dealership who will buy it low, and then sale it at a jacked up price.
Now...get to DMV today and get that title transferred into your name pronto! I mean he did sign the title over right?

Accept it , it's kinda a gift from your man too since that's his brother. Enjoy!
Posted by P-AngelI definitely appreciate the magnitude of this present. I don't know if you are aware, but back in June, the family wanted me to go on a trip with them to Seattle and then Portland. That invitation was a major big deal to me. During the Seattle trip, we went to the mother's sister's wedding. At one point, the photographer asked everyone to proceed to the reception area and said that the family should stay. I got up to leave, and as I was heading away, my boyfriend ran up behind me and said: "You know when he says family, that also means you, right?"
Additionally, if you aren't in it all the way with your boyfriend, and you let them give you such an expensive gift ... then this will likely come back to kick you in the ass.
You're asking if you should take such a big gift .... and the answer can only be determined by how seriously you are valuing your boyfriend.
Because be real here ... you wouldn't have gotten this gift if it weren't for the boyfriend. this isn't about you to his family ..... it's about him.
So, you need to acknowledge the reality of a gift of this magnitude.
Besides by Dark Lily Phase, I don't play around. I'm serious about my Capricorn, and the moment we started being together (the second day after we met), I knew he was The One, he is My Guy. The mother gave me a charm bracelet with my first charm - a heart with a photo of the Capricorn and myself. During our first year anniversary she smiled and told me: "Are you tired of him yet? He is still madly in love with you."
I realize that the family loves me because they love him. I don't overestimate my importance.
Posted by P-AngelIt was a play on the God Father's "offer you can't refuse." I try to have creative thread titles, but this was rushed and not so successful, I admit. It was a gift.

He could have sold his car, but he chose not to. That is the part that I was having difficulty wrapping my mind around. For his birthday, I got him a hardback, special addition of the book, Hamilton. He LOVES the musical. For Christmas, I bought him an (what I thought was expensive) hat. He loves concerts, and I thought it would be useful for the summer concerts. I also got him stocking stuffers.
It's funny, because he passed me a bag and it had Burt's Bees toiletries in it. Since he handed it to me, I thought it was from him, and I thanked him because I love personal care items. He said it wasn't from me but that his present was in my stocking. As I went thought my stocking stuffers, I took out a book called 'Freakanomics.' I knew right away it was from him because we discussed that book in a conversation about the correlation between names and success, and I hadn't read it. I was thrilled with it. But I didn't know there was more.
He kept saying how this Christmas has been the best Christmas. I am not sure how to pay him back, so to speak, but when the moment presents itself, I will seize it.

For the car key, His stepfather made me a keychain with a glass, jade bead he made himself. It obvious the family is giving me the car with their blessing.
The family gave you the car, not the brother in law. The previous owner was the brother ... but, the gift came from the family.
Above, you admitted that it was a family gift.
So, why mislead people by telling them it was a gift from the brother?
there's a big difference between a personal gift from the brother, and a family gift.
Are you trying to invoke drama, and get people to talk about how the brother must secretly like you, or something?
It was a powerful moment because it was the first time we showed each other that we like each other as people and as family.
My boyfriend told me this morning (when I brought up my feelings about receiving such an expensive present) that his mom was emotional when she saw us hugging because she wants nothing more than for all of us to be a happy family. She's an Aries and was a single parent for a long while, so she's very close to her sons, and she's been a powerful supporter of my relationship with her Capricorn and her libra's relationship with his cancer.
It never crossed my mind that he might "like" me. My dilemma was that this present is the biggest gift I have ever gotten from someone else, it is much needed, but that I couldn't never return the favor. It was an emotional day, and I was (and still am) overwhelmed by his generosity.
The car was the Libra's. It was his car. Months ago, he spoke about selling it as he was in search of a new car. The stepfather made wood presents for everyone else, and he also does glass work, so he made me the keychain. It definitely adds the feeling of the family giving me their blessing. The libra could have sold it and got some kind of money for it, so I'm humbled that he chose to just give it to me.
The libra discussed his plans with the family, and apparently they thought it was a great idea (not unlike how I discussed getting a camera for the libra's girlfriend and they all supported my idea.)
So, it was from him.
Are they going to have to make up for your deficits for life?
He could have sold his car, but he chose not to. That is the part that I was having difficulty wrapping my mind around. For his birthday, I got him a hardback, special addition of the book, Hamilton. He LOVES the musical. For Christmas, I bought him an (what I thought was expensive) hat. He loves concerts, and I thought it would be useful for the summer concerts. I also got him stocking stuffers.
It's funny, because he passed me a bag and it had Burt's Bees toiletries in it. Since he handed it to me, I thought it was from him, and I thanked him because I love personal care items. He said it wasn't from me but that his present was in my stocking. As I went thought my stocking stuffers, I took out a book called 'Freakanomics.' I knew right away it was from him because we discussed that book in a conversation about the correlation between names and success, and I hadn't read it. I was thrilled with it. But I didn't know there was more.
He kept saying how this Christmas has been the best Christmas. I am not sure how to pay him back, so to speak, but when the moment presents itself, I will seize it.
It also looks like you pay attention to people which is awesome.
I've never read that book but I think I watched the movie.
Thanks added it.

Until he signs the title over to you, it's his car.
In the meantime, I would regard the car as a loan.

Posted by 2MoonCome on, why would you say that? He has a girlfriend. In fact, I haven't seen him since Christmas because he's been with her. People can do nice things without creepy, akterior motives, no?
He wants to fuck.

My boyfriend's older brother gave it to me.
It was his car before he got his new one.
The key was wrapped and stuffed in my Christmas stocking.
I cried when I saw the key and he said "it [the car] is yours." I was shaking and I gave him the biggest hug.
I really need a car, and I was on the market for one.
But now I am wondering if keeping it is the right thing to do. He could have sold his car and got very good money for it. I don't want to offend him by refusing, but I'm wondering if this gift is too big to accept.
I'm still in shock that I got it. I actually feel a bit nauseous.
What are your thoughts? Any advice?
