why do i always have to bring gifts?
2006-12-09 21:07:46 · update #1
Not greeting your hosts
Not wiping your shoes before you enter their home
Sitting down before you are invited to
Depending on the reason for the visit, a small gift would be welcome....for instance, if you are invited for a meal, a bottle of wine (if they drink it) or a small box of chocolates or a small bouquet of flowers would be a nice "thank you"
Anything that would be considered as bad manners anywhere else!

No saying PO, not blessing, not saying Kumusta when u enter, not eating the food the serve you, not bringing a gift, not kissing or accepting a kiss when you leave, and you have to bring gifts because it RESPECTFUL and A SIGN OF POLITENESS.

Be friendly, smile, and converse when possible. Presents aren't always required,.. but the occasional gift never hurt either.

Not removing your shoes when you enter the home, farting at the table, picking your nose, not greeting the elders with mano, cursing, eating with utensils, haha

not greeting them good evening or morning, not saying po and opo, that's very disrespectful.

Being boastful and "nagmamagaling".
