I feel bad when people I dont really remember or even talk to anymore get me gifts and I dont get them anything. I tells ya, Christmas is like an interpersonal relationship mine field.

What I really hate is when some random relative who I literally cant remember meeting sends me a gift. Because they dont know me at all the gift is never something I want. But my mother sends them and their kids a present so they feel obliged. I feel really bad but really cant think of a way to stop it though.

Wow I guess everyone feels the same way. On my 15th birthday I didn’t want anything but my dad still got me a Â£400 camcorder. For christmas I got an xbox 360. I use them though and they’re fun but also because I feel bad for my parents.

I didn’t emphasis that I don’t want any gift. I am to point in my life that I don’t need any gifts. I often don’t know what I want when my parents asked me and often ideas pop after christmas.

That’s awesome Ty, I guess if you stick it out you win in the end.
Question though: do you still get other people presents, how do you feel about that?

I said “I don’t feel like there’s anything I want or need in life any more”, and then asked for some kitchen stuff. It’s nice to have it.

HOWEVER, Mum bought me, my brothers, and my Dad, a remote control micro helicopter each and they rock!

Nice, I did something similar this year, except I asked family and friends spend whatever money they normally would on me towards toys for teens and other charitable causes.
