Does anyone else find the whole present thing pointless ? Why doesn't everyone keep their money and buy stuff they want for themselves ?
So much pressure to find just the right gift and to respond to what you are given positively regardless of If you actually like it or not !
I'm being pressured to provide a Christmas list of things I'd like to be 'surprised' by. I hate it. I've spent so much of my life minimising my needs (needs = weakness) that there's nothing I want. If I've really needed something, I've probably already got it.
I like giving gifts - it's a typical parent-thing enjoying your kids' delight on finding great things under the tree - but I've no real interest in anything for myself.
That's how I feel about wish lists
