Anyone absolutely hate buying gifts?

Fak, not only do you have to figure out what to get you have to go get it.

I absolutely hate buying gifts. Buying for women is even worse.

My wife isnt picky but I still have to buy crap for her or I know shes destroyed inside. Christmas and birthday close together so i get to be extra stressed buying "gifts"

Just about go to a dollar store like a cuck to buy "stocking stuffers", cringe.



Dont get me wrong, I love Christmas. Just absolutely hate the gift part.




Tldr;
I hate buying gifts

Anyone else know these feels?

The woman i buy stuff for has an amazon wishlist. So it makes things easier.
I always try to buy the most expensive item on the list, because a lot of other guys from twitch also buy her stuff. But while they get her a $10 item, i watch her unpack her brand new $300 boots that she really wanted that i just bought her. You should see her smile light up. And when she thanks me by my username, all the other guys are foaming from jealousy. Feels good.

It’s all about the money and stuff nowadays, sad.

Gift cards, especially visa gift cards, are the GOAT.

One time I bought a girl a dvd player because i knew she was getting a tv. She seemed destroyed inside I wasnt more "thoughtful" and bought "interesting" or "unique" gifts.

Maybe Ive been ruined since then, worried someone isnt happy with what I got them.

I ****in hate gift giving srs

The gift part is the best.

Make sure to do your shopping way ahead of time. Most wait until last minute and it's never high quality that way

Lmao a dvd player? I bet she immediately took pictures of it and bragged about it on her social media. Not even a bluray player lol!
I once got a sloot in school a brand new watch (cheap kind probably 30-70 dollar range) that i found at work for free.
You should've seen the look on her face. it was like she just got handed a dead animal carcass.
I thought she'd appreciate it but i still cringe at the thought of it.

Women are shallow af. Unless you give a macbook pro, a gift card, money, or overpriced brand jewelry like tiffanys, forgetaboutit.

I know shopping ahead of time is better, its figuring out what to get that sucks. The worst is buying stocking stuffers.

Brb 90% dollar store garbage, like whats the point? If I dont do it though, wife cries on the inside. Sucks mane

it was my first gf in years after going mgtow, buying gifts was a forgotten art that year, im a person of efficiency and logic, which is rarely an attractive feature to females

Imo it really matter what you get. Most people go through the same thing. Just make sure you wrap it up nicely with a bowtie.

My bro likes to go to Starbucks alot so I'll just get him a gift card from there nicilyy wrapped.
