Sometimes you get complimented by people and you think, "wow, that was completely fake." Tonight, I went on a date with a man who I felt was actually genuine. It made me feel really good about myself. I am very adamant about not seeking the approval of others for your own self worth but it was a nice feeling to feel appreciated and complimented genuinely.
You could argue that he was just saying that I looked nice because he wanted to get in my pants, but it felt genuine. And you know what? It doesn't matter if it had ill motives or not, I still felt a bit better about myself. So I think we should all give more genuine compliments to people. Not the fake kind that you say out of pity or necessity, but the kind that aren't needed. Who knows what kind of life you can effect? What a miracle!
