I have a friend who continues saying things like, “I didn’t realize people thought I was cool/attractive/interesting.” I wonder she’s finding out now because she’s a trans girl and/or terminally online (homebound disability) - people who have been I her life for years now feel more comfortable sharing how they feel about her.
For me, it’s definitely a case of my own shyness and difficulty telling people how I feel about them, so being able to say things through text conversations makes it much easier to communicate what I really feel.
What do you guys think?
I’m glad you found a way to express your affection. It’s funny - for me, physical affection is fairly easy, but telling people things I like about them is harder.
