Why can't lighters be given away casually?

Many people will give friends or relatives birthday gifts, which may be something they like very much or something they often use. But if you want to give someone a lighter, you need to pay attention to something, so why can't you just give it away?

1, why can't I just send the lighter? Usually lighters are given to lovers or admirers, and can't be given away casually. If girls give lighters to boys, you need to pay attention, because if you are just ordinary friends, it is ambiguous to give lighters to each other. If you don't like the other person, you may be misunderstood. Otherwise, if you like him or have a crush on him, you can't just add a lighter.

2. Couples can't give any gifts. From the perspective of geomantic omen, lovers can't send umbrellas, because from the pictographic meaning of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, umbrellas are homophonic, which is not good in moral or symbolic meaning. If one person on both sides gives the other an umbrella, it also means that the two people break up when they can't get together.

When giving gifts, we should pay attention to that some gifts can't be given casually, because our country pays more attention to homophonic, so things with bad meanings can't be given away, such as watches, umbrellas, shoes, pears and other items, because the homophonic sounds of these items are unlucky.
