Looking for both logical and emotional reinforcements, from casual acquaintances to intimate partners, and any orientation if not especially, everyone matters.
Frame it as a “friend” if you’d like, but I would like to know what made an impactful impression on you personally, above and beyond any hypothetical.


Ohh yeah good points. There was a lot of context in my story missing but I didn’t know how recount it without being mega cringe.

Home girl’s compliment got to me because she was commenting on things she liked that I did, not ways that I just inherently was.
