Anyone one of you guys have ever had that one friends that simply buys a lot of thing that he/she wants because the person has a lot of money, or his work pays him greatly and he/she still has a lot that left over so he/she simply say, I don't know, buy a few games or see a buy one, get one free sale or buy one, get one on 50% sale and that person out of nowhere just had to buy you the copy of the game so you can join him/her?

Or maybe you see that person you know suddenly buying a few Animal Crossing Amiibo Cards and opens them while finding a few cards he/she already has and gives you the one he/she already has for free without having to charge you a single penny to him?

I must say, I sometimes see this occurring for others and I cannot help but feel a little bit envious even though unhealthy because not only is it rare to find a good friend like that, but a lot of people easily can lose them with any simply mistake or rude thing you do to them. And this week it was no different when I see someone I know getting super excited because a friend of my friend came and gave out a K.K. card while I sometimes am a little envious of the people my friend knows.

And while I feel happy that my friend has a K.K. card, strangely, there are times I ask myself, "Does my friend knows how lucky it is to have someone that gifts you stuff like that for free?" And I cannot help thinking it. Because I wonder if my friend is grateful or not. I would be, but as they say. "Beggars can't be choosers." I just wish my little unhealthy envy didn't bother me so much.

But yeah, any of you guys ever had that one friend that gifts you a lot of Animal Crossing related stuff that he/she doesn't need and you just get it for free? I would like to know how grateful you are when a friend gives you an AC amiibo or so. Or even know I'm not the only one struggling seeing friends of friends getting a few Animal Crossing stuff with such ease or giving them to others.

I get given quite a lot by my friends, they are Japanese and I'm not sure if it's a cultural thing or they are just very generous but it's to the point they'll go out of their way to get me exclusive DLC or fun glitched items. They even give me extra things sometimes for my other friends its amazing. I do give them items as well like European exclusives and DLC I happen to have that they don't but nowhere near as much, I am very grateful to have met such lovely friendly people.

I pay my luck forward and help my other friends out with items, it's nothing to me to pass on doubles of amiibo cards either when I get them.
 
That is super nice of you, FancyThat. Again, I am still envious when I see those moments. But I cannot express how happy I am to see others gift such things like that out of the blue to their friends. It really is super nice and friendly of those people after all. And I do hope you'll keep sharing such luck like that with others.
 
I play AC for my own happiness and nostalgia. The only ones who know I play are my sister who used to play GC with me and my 13 year old cousin who plays lol
 
None of my irl friends really play ACNL. But when my family plays it together, we share stuff. And my friends and other people on here sometimes give me stuff for free too!
 
None of my other friends (with the exception of one, who uses her boyfriend's 3ds to play Pokemon and nothing else,) even have the system.
 
Dang... seeing all these post, I didn't think other people would be in the same situation as I am. But I can understand then. I really hope we can find a friend like that or someone we can help out very much like that. Although, it makes me kind of happy to know I am not the only ones envious of lucky people with friends like that.
