Why is it that when I ask a girl (even one I'm not in love with) what she wants for Christmas or her birthday, she says she doesn't want anything.... and then drops hints everywhere about things she wants. Why not just say "It would be nice if you could get me ______"? I don't care about subtlety. If you want it, and I asked if you want something, then I should try to get it for you, and you shouldn't beat around the bush about it.
