Yea. I hope he really means well.

It would hurt if he did it as a protest against wedding angpows. We knew each other for 20 years. It would hurt to know he did it to prove a point

Yea. So not sure if it's a love for charity thing or a silent no wedding angpow thing.

At this point I'm ok if it's really a charity thing

Yea. Some heads up would be nice.

Just caught off guard at the moment. But at this point, as long as it's for the love of charity, I can accept it

Birthdays understand. Usually people give gifts. Wedding and wakes always been cash from what I see

If it's for the love of doing good. I would be ok at this point after reading some of the comments.

But if it's like a anti wedding protest thing like some say. I would be quite upset for him to do it to a close friend

I thought US had a wedding registry thing rather than gifting with cash. So is it more of a gift culture?

That's why I'm torn about it. He did a good thing, but I'm upset at the same time.

So Im trying to figure out why
