Depends on the level of acquaintance maybe
I would say it would depend on who specifically is asking me what I want as a present. If it was my future girlfriend or my closest friend I would tell them my present is just being alive and being happy that they have been a part of my life for however long. If it is my family I just tell them directly what I want even though I know I won't get everything but that's life. If it was someone I hardly knew or didn't know at all such as my friends mom or my best friends wife's cousins brother than I would just simply say I don't want anything and I mean it but thanks for offering.
I wouldn't put pressure on them to give me anything, but I'd say what I'd love to get, so hint it without forcing it.
I don't normally ask for a present from friends, just family and even then, I just want a specific homemade cake I like and if it's a Saturday, Pizza Hut, lol.
I don't think I'd need anything else, at least not anything that'd justify a somewhat big price tag.
Well I learned last Christmas never share your Amazon wish list. I use the thing like pintrest. Not as a list of serious ideas of what I want. Resulted in me getting something I'd added 10 years ago and bought 5-6 years ago, then donated to a charity shop a couple of years later.
I've since put the things I want on a private list so anyone asking gets to see my preferred oven cleaner, food for my fish and other useless shit I'd not expect as a gift.
Completely shut down and tell them not to get me anything 🤷♀️ My best friend showed up with takis, a card, a rose in a glass ball and Mike slides for Mother’s Day 😂 luckily
She’s Good at guessing cause I told her for daaaaays not to get me anything

I am very specific about certain things so to make it easier, I show a few items with pictures... he can pick one to surprise me.
I don’t like wasting time/money on things I don’t want or care for.
I am at that point in life where I do not need any material things. I have enough clothes to last me the rest of my life if I dont get fat. I do not need anymore tools either. I have been dropping hints about going white water rafting or a helicopter ride or something like that. So far nobody has figured it out.
There's nothing you can buy me from the store that I want. I want a woman to hang and chill and ya know sexual favors. Beyond that there's not much that makes me happy, weed and booze lol.
It depends on who is asking me. If it's my husband, I'll naughtily tell him what I want.
If its my crush, i jokingly say “you”. Otherwise, i tell em Im fine. But if they keep insisting, i tell em, money is always a great gift
Pull out a premade list from my backpocket with respective prices attached and whats already been crossed off and names of who got them for me.
I always buy whatever I want myself, so I usually say nothing.
If i ask for something then it's usually food they can make.
Eh pretty much everyone from my circle knows I like either gadgets or books or sweets.
If they ask me, I will just tell them I don't want anything.
I rather give than receive anything. Just say thank you. I call that even. I met a lot me friends that buy me thing or they say you are a sweetheart. I turn so red make laugh at me.
Hate gifts because I might enjoy the thought but I also feel indebted to them even if they are family or good friends.
Usually give hints of tell what I want I'm pretty simple.
I say nothing because more often than not, I want nothing. That, or something on my reading list.
I hope this isn't too kinky but I love buying gifts for a woman who has a boyfriend and whom I have no chance of having sex with... lol
I know about a year ago I wanted a TV since my 42 inch Insignia HDTV was breaking down since I had it since 2007. My mom surprised me with a 50 inch 4K Roku TV and it was awesome. Funny thing is the old TV eventually broke this year.
I'll just tell them that I appreciate them asking, but I don't need anything.
I would say what I want if I don’t feel too shy
I don't like getting presents.
hand them a list of things from $1- $500
Tell them.
Give them money
