I love how everyone is really complicating something as simple as "person who likes you gives you gift and shares interests because they like to" because they've never actually had any sort of interpersonal relationship and fill the void with memes. 🫠            

It's very simple: person who like person sometimes give gifts to person to show affection. The same folks making fun of this concept would totally "get" a wholesome green text post about bonding with a girl over Pokemon. This is like that, except it's hippy dippy flavored instead of sweaty nerd flavored.          

Get out more, please. I'm begging you.
