    I got one spontaneous compliment from a stranger some years ago and I’m still savouring it. Gotta make it last, never know if/when there’ll be a next one.

      The compliment I got about 8 years ago (a cashier told me I smell really good) is starting to run out of steam. I desperately need a stranger to tell me something nice about myself unprompted, once that smell comment runs dry things are gonna get gloomy.

      I was walking alone in an empty street during NYE when a random girl, who happened to come by, spread her arms and blocked my way in a playful manner.

      She only let me pass once I cracked a smile.
      It’s been well over a decade, but I still remember her face.

      It was the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.

      Tell me you are male presenting, without telling me you are male presenting.
