Because I'm the kind of person that will gladly and without hesitation drop an unholy amount of cash on making someone else happy, but having to look at things that I want and have to ask another person to buy for me? So uncomfortable. And "Nothing" is never an acceptable answer.
It's practically an anxiety trigger to me, weighing all the factors of "I don't want the person to spend TOO much on me, but I don't want them to spend so little that THEY feel guilty when they get my gift. Is this going to be something convenient for them to get? Will they have to jump through hoops to get to to me? What's shipping going to be like for them if they have to mail it? Do they think I'm stupid for even wanting this to begin with? AHHHH."
So much this. To the point that I'd rather -not- get anything from anyone.
Thankfully my goto is always funky socks. I NEVER know what to tell people to get me either, but I DO enjoy crazy colorful socks... and those are typically inexpensive.
But... I understand that socks are normally considered to be a lame gift, so...
I guess I don't grump on Holidays now that I don't work retail. I... actually kind of like them again.
