As long as you don't expect any back and don't get offended when you don't get any, it's all good!
A thoughtful, heartfelt gift given out of genuine appreciation for someone is a beautiful thing. When it turns into a transactional expectation where the quality of gift is going to be judged by the receiver, then fuck that. Not everyone is like that, though. >

When I first started hanging out with my friends, I told them not to get me any gifts, and to not expect any from me. It's worked out great, and continues to work great as adults.
Unless its a meaningful gift, it's just a useless exchange of wealth. >

People that know me get what I want but won’t get for myself. Cuz I’m rich and buy everything I want… except for some things. And that’s where gifts come in
