We have a very good friend living with us while he gets back on his feet. He's new to the area and staying with us while he earns enough money to get a place of his own. (note we are NOT in a hurry to get him out of the house, we enjoy having him with us).
This Christmas we all exchanged gifts, and we felt bad because he had spent a lot more money on gifts for us than we had for him. We could have spent more, but were being conservative in order to avoid embarrassment. Apparently this backfired.
In the future I guess we could set up a guideline to avoid this sort of thing.
He was very gracious about it, but I really sort of feel like I need to make it up to him.
Any good advice out there?
