it’s weird like if family or friends give me praise for something I feel awkward and can be indifferent to it but if a stranger or acquaintance tells me I have a cool outfit or that I’m talented at something I’m already making wedding plans

#the less close I am to a person the more the positive attention means to me #family or friends: wow good job😃 me: aw youre just saying that #random stranger: wow good job😃 me: haha omg thankssss💖💖💖💖💖#I love attention from strangers and acquaintances☺️#I don’t know I guess it’s just easier to trust as genuine?#like loved ones might exaggerate 1) to make you feel good #2) their love for you alters their perception and they exaggerate your #abilities or appearance in their mind #but people who don’t know or love you won’t praise you unless they genuinely mean it #so it provides me with stronger affirmation
