Also, you called me attractive for the third time yesterday

I don't know why I notice or care. It's not that I want you to be attracted to me.
You've said I'm intelligent way more times than that, including yesterday. But I guess I'm used to being told I'm intelligent? Not that I necessarily believe it, but I at least believe that most other people believe it. The same goes for you saying I'm empathetic or kind or any of those other things.
How low are your standards on this? Do you tell all your patients they're attractive? Do you just mean not completely hideous?

Maybe it's reassuring because I worry you'll see me as disgusting and repulsive. Idk
