[quote=Anonymous]What do you say when you don't want gifts, and don't want to reciprocate giving gifts, but feel the giver will be offended or unwanting to accept the boundary. The gifts are usually stuff I don't like, want or need, so I end up tossing or donating but feel bad they don't see me using the gifts or see the gifts they've given me in my home. I like buying gifts sometimes and choosing things that are thoughtful or consumable, or replaceables for things I know they use, in brands I know they like. Are gifts something I have to deal with for the sake of relationships? Is it rude to ask to be left out of gift giving or exchanges? Often it's a same gift for each aunt/cousin/sister over 25 or so, about $15-20, for any occasion (Christmas, Mothers Day, Valentines day, etc)[/quote]
