Send to a Friend

Do you feel insulted if you have given someone a present that had a lot of thought put into it (and money but that's beside the point) and this was not reciprocated?

This happened to me this Christmas – I put a lot of thought and quite a bit of money into a gift for a friend and she gave me something quite ordinary and inexpensive. I know that it does not take a lot of money to give someone a nice present, it is really the thought that counts (i have received great gifts that the giver bought at thrift shops or gifts that were handmade – like crafts or food) but I am feeling insulted that the thought i gave was not given back and wondering if this is something others have experienced.
