Not to get anything started, but I am curious about your statement. If Wonderyears is friends with the people, why do you describe acknowledging the anniversaries as 'a need'?

Outside of the vibe I get that says perhaps the anniversary should not be important to a non-member, I agree with you. Non-members should never buy gifts for greeks in an effort to rally 'favor'. The gifts will never, ever be appreciated fully, as they were given with invisible 'like me please' strings attached.

But if Wonderyears is truly friends with these people and choses to give a gift to acknowledge an important milestone, I think its cool. Not that I gave my husband anything for his anniversary....
