A nice festive thread. No need for Marsh coming in all "I like to bottom lol"

Now I'm earning more money I actually love buying people things. I spent a load on my brother and I hope he loves all of it x

I like to give. But if I don't receive anything in return I actually resent them.

I really like both, probably giving though. I enjoy buying things for people and seeing their reactions when they open them.

I love both but i've got to say I love getting excited to see what people got me because I love surprises (unless they're jumpscares they can die)

It is a love based on giving and receiving, and the love that they give and have and share and receive, and through this giving and receiving and having and sharing we too can share and have and give and receive.

Receiving because i've not got the money to buy people gifts atm, i do enjoy helping to wrap presents so that will come in handy when i do start giving presents.

Receiving haha I love opening presents on Christmas Day. However this year I am more excited for the reactions of my family when they open the presents I'll be giving them.

I'm awkward to buy for because I expect super personal and meaningful presents and then I'm invariably just like "oh...you got me a lynx set... thanks... ..." on the morning.

But I know I'm damn good at buying presents (when I can afford to) so yeah I find it easier buying them than asking/hinting for them.

To the people who (if you) genuinely think people are lying when they say giving then not at all

I like receiving presents when it's something I really want (or if it's money) but opening random gifts from family that you're like 'meh' isn't really that exciting. I'm always grateful and I generally like what my parents buy but I'd rather the satisfaction of having others be happy with your gifts.
