What's something that makes you feel proud of yourself?

For me it's when nieces asks me for help bc they trust me enough to ask, and have faith I can help.

Like yesterday when oldest niece (14) told me "I need uncle advice!" then asked how to deal with a boy who seems to wanna be more than friends, but she doesn't like him that way.

She also asked which school subjects I was good in so I could help. I told her maths and english.
Her response: "Oh, good. I need help with english. I already have 3 people able to help me with maths tho, but I'd rather you help me than them tbh"

She really boosted my confidence without knowing how much that ment to me 🥰

My girlfriend's coworkers and bosses, who I barely know and don't even really talk to, all treat me warmly. One of them even hugged me the other day. I'm pretty sure she's saying good things about me at work. She even told me how when others complain about their partners, she can't relate to them at all.

I spent a lot of my life alone, so getting that kind of props on my relationship skills is incredibly reassuring

@TinyViolins what people say behind your back is usually the truth. The fact she's talked about you in such a way that strangers hug you is a good sign 💜
