What's the nicest/ strongest thing someone have said to you?

[mboo]

I love you. And you are gorgeous. Somehow like it from girlfriends too.
Also.. you are exciting.
You are strong.

I'm afraid a lot of times that people say nice things to me all the time, but that I just am not really listening because of my depression and apathy.

Once I was calling the suicide hotline and I was talking about how I feel like mentioning suicidal thoughts to my friends would overburden them, but then realized that they ultimately value me more being alive so I should just go ahead and do it. And the volunteer said to me, "Absolutely they value you. Don't think you aren't valuable because you are: you're literally priceless." And it just caught me off-guard that a stranger would say something like that to me. I'll probably remember that as long as I live and I just think to myself sometimes why am I not letting other people know this too?

"You smell like lasagna. Yum." Makes we wanna self-cannibalize. But without Ricotta, why even try?

a friend credited me in the special thanks for something they made... it really made me feel like i had some worth and a positive impact on someone's life. i can't think of any better reasons to live than that

A garbage collector man once told me i am beautiful while he was in the back of his garbage truck. Didn't ask for my number and didn't say it implying anything sexual. Just said that and smiled while his truck drove away. Will never forget it.

 

[andweallfloatonok]

that i look like a real life renaissance angel

My math teacher saying I am going to become a great scientist and do so many wonderful things when I told him I wanted to be a astronaut. As a kid back then, it felt inspiring to hear a adult be confident in me.

"you are the best thing that's ever happened to me" "where were you my whole life" "your first love being your last is rare but i can see myself marrying you".

 

[NoLightRemains]

"You are like a beacon of light to this friend group, you bring us all together" at a meetup with online friends years ago. I've heard similar sentiments since then, but that version of me doesn't feel true anymore, hence my screenname: no light remains. This beacon feels burnt out and like it will never shine again.

On One night last year when i was at the top of building, about to attempt ctb, i texted my dad for last time, and i ask him, "Dad, what will happen if you lose me one day?"
And he replied " A part of me goes with you"
I cried, mixed emotion, walk away from the balcony and cuddle with my cat after.
I replied him " I love you" and sleep abit happier ^^

When I was in the army, a sergeant caught my eyes during a training exercise and said, "Giiiirl, your eyes look like crack rocks! I just wanna smoke 'em up!"

"If a woman like you gives up on love, men like me will start believing that there's no hope to meet someone truly special" a friend of mine

 

[Seaghost]

Well a good friend told me not so long ago: Xxx, I would entrust you my life but not my soft ice :].

 

[nohopeleftanymoreno]

"I understand and acknowledge your pain. I would also be suicidal if I went through the things you did". It was so nice to not feel judged, or be told to stop. Rather they accepted my decision and validated my feelings. Even though they said they'd prefer it if I were alive - they acknowledged that is selfish.

 

[self.destractive]

my friend and i were on her bedroom floor, stoned as fuck. she held my head up to look into her eyes and was playing with my hair, and tucking it behind my ears and whatnot. she smiled and kept telling me how beautiful she thought i was, and how much she adored me. there was a couple other people in the room, and this guy reached down to also play with my hair. my friend knew how i was iffy about people touching me, especially if i didnt know them well, so she swatted him away and told him off. then she just sorta went back to playing with my hair and smiling at me.

before that, i never really had someone tell me i was beautiful in a way that i believed them? i guess
i guess we werent sober but its kinda a really comforting memory to me-

This girl I was friends with in graduate school said some things about me I'll never forget. On my 29th birthday, she gave me a card and in it she had written some rather touching thoughts about me, in addition to wishing me a happy birthday. Can't remember the exact wording, but something about me being a strong, sensitive person and that I had been through total and complete hell but inspire others. I don't know how she picked up on the "been through hell" part considering I never opened up to her about my past, but her people reading skills really struck me. She probably picked up on a hidden kind of sadness in me. I'm sure she is doing quite well for herself now although we haven't spoken for years.

When I was at the gym once, a guy walked past me and complimented me for even being at the gym at all. It's crazy how you can spend 20 years on this planet and still be able to count all the real compliments you've received in your life on only one hand.

 

[Blondie]

That I had skin like a porcelain doll

 

[PaperGodzilla]

that I'm a good person xd

 

[nosurpries]

one time when i was working my old waitressing job a man told me that i really looked just like natalie portman.

I wished my memory served me enough to answer this question... i am sure somebody did tell me something nice in the past, but now it is all gone

Some weeks ago, my mum was in a clear state of mind, almost like before (she's severe sick now). And she said to me; I'm sorry I never really saw who you are, Sus. I tried to fit you in with all "normal" things, sports and education. I was wrong, I should let you flourish on your own terms. I'm so sorry I failed you.

I held my tears and thanked her. I cry inside when I think abouth these words. Of course I wish she'd told me when I was young, but parents are not perfect. No one is. There are so many words not being said. So much love in people, but we forget to share it.

What's the most important thing someone told you? And are you guys good at giving compliments or say nice things to others?

Awww... Such a precious gift to see & accept you & apoligize to heal you.

I have a short memory, can't think of kindness... But today, even though I fully revealed the total shit I am, someone here accepted my affection. He didn't demand me to be positive, didn't say my pain is all in my head... He shared with me. I felt love and he gently welcomed it instead to crush it into oblivion. I was near a human & didn't regret it. So glad I felt it after so many years. I hope I won't suffocate him with codependency. I look forward to seeing him again. Even though I gave up all my joys to surrender to doom... He almost makes me want to live... Almost gives me hope... almost is the max I can do so he's amazing

Fluffy bunny! So happy to see you!

I was being harassed mercilessly at work for a facial deformity. One day a regular customer came to the counter with as much softness in her voice as possible and told her daughter to hand the "beautiful" cashier the items to buy. It was such a touching moment of humanity. I don't remember the insults and scoffs and rudeness because I black it out, but I remember that moment vividly.

Aww, you didn't felt pain because of your face... But because the true ugly was in people's hearts. I'm glad that the mother was kind.

"kill yourself slug"
"do it"
"shoot yourself."
"why won't u die?"
"please kill yourself"
"I'd be happy"
"Your mother did wish to abort u"
"Kill yourself, you'd make people happy."
"U ugly, slug."

My SI telling me while I was bullied & wished to die "murder is always an option".

I'm not helplessly at the mercy of bullies. They are at mine!

I misread beacon as bacon. It's popular without the light. You can be too.

 

[Dead Ghost]

One person called me "nature's beauty" and I was shocked and I really believed it for a few moments.
I know it was just a flattery, but it made me feel very good, its warmth made me heal many small wounds at once.
And I guess I'll always remember that.

Una persona em va dir "preciositat de la natura" i em va sorprendre i m'ho vaig creure de debó per uns instants.
Ja sé que només era un afaleg, pero em va fer sentir molt bé, el seu caliu em va fer guarir moltes petites ferides de cop.
I suposo que ho recordaré sempre.
