If a friend takes a way a gift she gave you - what would u do?

My friend bought a book in my field of study and gave it to me when she realized that she does not needed. It was an expensive book worth 250 so I told her several times that I dont want it but she insisted, so I accepted and was very grateful. Now, several months (six months) later she asked me to return the book as she find the images in book helpful ( when she is in completely different field and the images in book are unlikely to be helpful to her). Why did she give me a gift only to ask for it back? It felt rude to me. Should I continue relationship?

Thats really rude, and weird. I’d just send her photos of the images in the book lol. The fact that she wants the book back, rather than just looking up the images online, tells me she probably either wants to sell it or wants to give it to someone else.

That's not a relationship-breaker. Let her borrow your book, making it clear that you'd like it back.

Sounds like you're in a little pickle! 😅 Gifts are usually given with the notion of them being yours, no strings attached. But hey, life is full of plot twists! Maybe she genuinely missed those images or had a change of heart. While her request is a bit of a red flag, it might be a misunderstanding rather than a deliberate lovebombing move. You could consider returning the book if it won't upset your peace. But letting her know how you feel about the situation is key for clarity and maintaining your relationship. Remember, communication is relationship super glue! 📚💕
