yeah, usually. i don’t know if it ever gets any easier to feel on the inside like other people earnestly like you, but what i’ve learned is that a lot of different people of all kinds like to give compliments and reassurance once they’re familiar with you. so it’s okay to need that in relationships

Thanks. Question is what do I do about it?

i used to have a hard time believing that people meant it when they said nice things about me, or i thought they’d were acting out of a reluctant sense of obligation or something. i think what helps with that anxiety is setting a good example for yourself by acting on your own impulses to praise and comfort other people, if that makes sense

Sort of. But many whom I give compliments to act like they didn’t want them or just brush them of as if they were uninterested.
