This is more of a teasing and playful message with a glint in one's eye - 'I am not inconsiderate am I' when giving something away, and then the gesture is being explained. Now we want it or not (it may sound too cliché), but love is blind, or can feel like

on them attributed to VW, a gift from someone...!</div>

<p><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; color:black">As far as I can determine, the phrase, which shows up on Etsy and Goodreads and so forth, was invented anonymously and

<i>Vita and Virginia </i>(or from one of the novels on Woolf). In a search on Google Books and Google Scholar and the Kindle version of
<i>Virginia Woolf: The Complete Works </i>not one instance of the phrase appeared. (In the Kindle version, "Foolishly" shows up in Woolf's writing only 18 times--and not one instance is part of that phrase.)</span></p>
