Registering for gifts

⚪Hula👶👶👶 • left glow for a break. I may come back as some point but for now its taking too much of my time

I'm curious what everyone's take is on this. I will not register for gifts because I want people to give me stuff that they want to give. Not just that they want to check off one of the things on a gift registry. I also find it way more entertaining to get gifts if I don't already know what it is.

That being said I don't find it offensive to register. Most people do nowadays. I always buy a couple things off the registry and some original gifts that fit the personality of the person getting the gifts.

How do you feel about yourself/others registering for gifts?
