People spend money on me. I don't know why! I've always been that way though...and I also don't spend money on myself. It's not that I'm cheap or anything, because I buy stuff for other people all the time with no problem. There are no negative emotions that come with people spending money on me or anything...it's just the way I am. I'm kind of like, "If I can't afford to buy it, I don't want it and I definitely don't want you to buy it for me."
For example...my mom wants to buy me a pair of sandals. They're ten bucks. I won't let her buy them for me, because it's something I can afford to buy myself. Why should she pay for them?
Blah. Is anyone else like this? Is it a pride thing, a social problem, or just a "i don't wanna be the obligation" of someone else type of thing?

I am this way, especially if I know I have more money than the person wanting to buy me something. However, I love spoiling myself with gifts0

Take the sandals, and say "Thank you." Let people do nice things for you, it makes them feel good.0

People chat BS behind my back.0

I hate it when I am rebuilding something (typically on a car) and I have "leftover" parts.0
