This is a general question, more of a personality, not each individual situation or person.

What makes you feel better, loving, satisfied, and any other positive adjective, to give or receive?

I'm a problem solver so am usually "giving" but it doesnt make me feel good. Neither does receiving. Not understand where feelings come into this.

Giving and receiving what?

I prefer to give a physical gift. I'm not great at accepting them.

But... When I get help, I really appreciate it. Like being taken care of.

I'm more comfortable giving. I get embarrassed when receiving. Then I get resentful. Not a good dynamic.

I love giving and receiving. Although I'm not great at accepting, I do feel appreciative that someone had me in mind.

Depends on who it is that I'm giving to or getting from.

Typically I prefer giving.
But, if it is chocolate, receiving.
Mine all mine, don't expect me to share!
(Just kidding, I am actually a social sweets eater, it's just more fun!)

I hear that. Giving makes me feel good, but I feel weird receiving compliments/things, almost like I don't deserve it. What

Does that make sense?

I am a good gift giver. I hate receiving things that aren't something I would buy. It's a waste of money and time.

To op, how do you create a poll?
I tried but don't see an option to create one

I'm not OP, but you can only create a poll from a computer. When you start a new thread, the option to add a poll will be right under the submit button.
