Using that vocabulary, technically I'm an asker, but a lot of people might assume that I'm not in that I very rarely ask for things.
But that's simply because there isn't a lot of I want that I don't have. When I realize the want I simply ask though.
As for what GD says i'd say that's a third category (though probably violating the vocabulary of the self-help guru) of a "Demander." These are people who apparently feel that the very act of wanting something means they deserve it and therefore any denial of it is unreasonable. Sure, I can be bent out of shape but an unreasonable denial (as I was recently with an uexpected rejection of a very minor work expense that I feel put us in a bad light as a company) but I think I'm generally pretty honest about it with myself.
