Was he rude to ask for gift back?
About 5 years ago I met an 90 year old man living in assisted living .
I started taking him out for lunch and errands a couple of times a month when I would go to town ( I live about 25 miles out ) .
Several other people also have provided him transportation and assistance .
About 2 months ago he decided to give 4 different people $500 gift cards to a computer store
( my self included ) then yesterday he called & asked for the gift card back .
He said he wanted to do something else with it .
( Everyone else had already picked up an iPad with their cards ) .
Altho I didn't really need it , I felt it was a gift and rude to ask for it back .
As it was specific to the computer store , it can only be used there .
I did return the card , then he promptly asked me to drive him to several places .
I just do NOT feel like Ever being his taxi again !
Was he out of line or am I being too sensitive ?
