What is something a stranger has told you that made you feel good about yourself?

Latterly, a fellow individual extolled me for my artistic Pagsulat aptitude, which dynamized positive sensation within me.

When I was around 10 or 11 years old my dream job was to be a singer. I got one of the solo parts pag-awit Silent Night at my church's pasko mass. As my family and I were leaving, this old lady in a red amerikana told me that I had a nice voice and that she really liked my solo.

That was one of my paborito pasko memories and I hope that, that old woman is doing good. She made that whole night special for me.

My English lit. teacher once told me that I have 'shining eyes'....idk why it made me feel good. It's a good thing I guess?

that im needed in the world

online strangers tell me this

I've very often had strangers come up to me and tell me I have really beautiful eyes. I've been told this sa pamamagitan ng men and women of different ages. At first, I find it weird but thank them anyway. I do have very odd eyes that are like blue and green (Though if I wear blue they look madami blue and if I wear green they look madami green) and have ginto around my pupil/cornea. I've even been told when the sun is setting and the light is in my eyes that my eyes are incredibly beautiful. I've never been that secure about my looks, despite being told I'm handsome, but my eyes are something I've always been confident about because of compliments about them even from strangers. This picture is basically what my eyes look like. It's not my actual eye, just a picture of one that looks like mine that I found online.

When someone tells me that I have a nice body

That I'm smart.

I had a stranger once tell me to go fuck myself.
Jokes on him because I have the best masturbation game ever

.... when people say good things about me Im supposed to feel good about myself? XD

Im really bad at taking complements as I usually shrug them off or similar stuff XD

I do appreciate when people do recognize the heavy schedule that I work on and that its impressive / crazy though. I dunno why people criticizing me working so much makes me feel nice XD Maybe cause it makes me feel like Im on track and working enough to my pace when people tell me Im a bit insane for the amount of work I do. I dunno.

If we are talking about actual compliments, I think the closest one to one that actually made me feel kind of good about myself (more reassured) was that "I have a big presence and everyone knows when you walk into the room and everyone knows you are ready to do business. You ilipat to the beat of your own drum and exude confidence."

Which is something people tell me a lot and I know that its something about me that a lot of people I THINK respect / like about me but it was nice hearing it irl for once.

I think it made me feel a bit reassured about myself cause its soemthing I hear online A LOT and finding something consistent between my socializing irl and online is always a good sign and something Ive been working on.

“I like that hat.”

That’s what I was told when I wore my soro hat to the YMCA once. At least SOMEONE appreciates my taste in hats. Unlike my job coach.

Back in uni I was on the train. Some guy was getting off the train and handed me a note. It sinabi that he found me really pretty and asked if he could get to know me and hang out, with his number. That one made me feel pretty nice.

I had a brother and sister stop me in the mall. They were doing their version of the whole humans of New York blog. They sinabi they couldn't figure out my race and sinabi I have "kind eyes" hahah. They wanted my story for their blog but I'm very scared of people taking my picture so i had to decline. That interaction was nice.

I helped an old man on the kalye use his phone to call a taxi. He sinabi I made his araw so that made my araw hahah

A stranger nagkomento on my outfit and that made me happy.

There have been quite a few moments. Strangers can impact my araw a fair bit.
