why do some people bother asking you what present you want and later decide not to get it for you?? the excuse given is, 'no lah, no more surprise.'
then for goodness sake, don't ask in the first place.
i admit getting a present for someone is quite a tedious task. you will worry if the present you get will suit the person or whether the person will like it.
therefore, i won't hesitate asking unless i am very sure the present i buy is something that someone will definitely like or find useful. do you feel 'pai seh/ bad' telling others what you want in case others might think you are greedy for their gift? i dun think that it is impolite when you are asked, at least the giver will know he or she is giving you something you want and not something that will be stored for years until it is time to get rid of them.
