Opening cards in front of giver

[Deleted User] · 2015-01-16 22:01:49

What is the custom regarding birthday/Christmas cards in the presence of the giver? I did it one year at Christmas after my uncle had handed me a sealed envelope and I think he looked a little uncomfortable. Just wondering if it is a social faux pas!

I always thought you're supposed to wait until they left to open it.
