#gifts - #I'm terrible to buy for. What to do?


I'm guessing this is posted all the time. Unintentionally, I'm very difficult to buy for and really struggle to think of things when asked for birthdays/Christmas etc. In a lot of ways it's good to not be able to think of stuff you want, but I feel dumb not knowing what to say and it does make it more likely I'll get something that just doesn't interest me.I'm not super minimalist, but I don't generally buy loads of extra stuff, and I won't upgrade something until what I already have can't be used anymore (or breaks). My hobbies generally don't require me to buy extra things to keep doing them (i.e. I don't game) and a lot of the normal "go-to" things people suggest (Alcohol, Tea/Coffee etc.) don't appeal to me. Sometimes you can ask for money as a gift, but I don't want to always ask for that, plus it is nice to receive actual physical things. Obviously, I can't force myself to come up with stuff I want though.What can I do from here? Are there any websites that are good for browsing? I am trying to make a note of things I feel I'd like, but currently can't afford/don't feel like buying (big and small) etc., but it's slow going. Any suggestions/thoughts are appreciated. Thanks. via /r/Gifts https://www.reddit.com/r/Gifts/comments/g8zx6i/im_terrible_to_buy_for_what_to_do/?utm_source=ifttt
