hello et can i ask about the decision to divide the participants into pairs...?????
Right, it was an.. interesting choice, and not in a good way
yeahh it confused me
i saw that the op specifically says "partner" and "pairs" but the idea of doing paired secret santa is kinda just so absurd that i didn't think anything of it at the time of signing up
like not only does it remove the entire secrecy aspect of it but it can also make the gift exchange itself a little weird and awkward because if u send each other cash ur essentially just passing money back and forth?? shoutout to my partner for their very kind gift btw but i felt weird when sending my gift to them in return because it felt like i was just going "thank u for the money, take it back tho"
Yeah I don't think it was a wise decision at all for several reasons, two being as you say, it's basically just passing money back and forth and it gets kinda awkward...
