Choosing a gift is not an easy task. On the one hand, I want to make a pleasant surprise to the person to whom it is intended, but on the other hand, there are some superstitions and rules about which gifts should not be given. One of these is a watch.
Instructions
Step 1
Superstition that you can't give a watch? came to us from China. Residents of this country believe that the watch received as a gift is an invitation to a funeral, but no one knows whose. This belief sounds rather strange, but, nevertheless, many people readily believe in it.
Step 2
According to our beliefs, it is believed that it is impossible to give a watch, as it is a symbol of parting. That is why it is not recommended to give them to people who are very dear to you. It is believed that the clock counts down to parting. And, if you present a watch for a wedding as a gift, then the marriage union of the newlyweds will not be long and they will soon divorce.
Step 3
Another sign that came to us from the West says that with such a gift you shorten the life of its owner. That is, this person will live exactly as long as the clock goes away.
Step 4
Another sign that prohibits giving a watch is a ban on giving spicy things. Oddly enough, but watches with sharp hands belong to this category. According to the omen, by giving sharp objects, you cut a relationship with this person.
Step 5
From a psychological point of view, by giving a watch, the person who accepted this present may decide that you are hinting at his lack of punctuality and may be very offended. Therefore, if you want to donate a watch, then present it as a beautiful attribute, not a useful thing, otherwise be prepared for a quarrel and protest.
Step 6
If you really want to give a watch, then you can do it, if you yourself do not believe in omens and the person to whom you want to present this gift, too. In addition, you can bypass the signs, for example, by selling a gift to the recipient, and in exchange for a watch, take the smallest coin. Thus, the gift will remain a gift, and from the point of view of psychology and will accept, you will sell it.
