What’s a Nice (or Nicest) Thing Someone Said to You?

During my worst depression ever, a friend said to me "I like you. Even if you are sad...".
It made me feel better because he didn't try to cheer me up or make me feel like I had to be okay. He enjoyed talking to me, fuucked up mood and all.

Recently a coworker said to me "you have an answer for everything!" when I came up with an example to answer a student's question. I thought she was being sarcastic but she was actually being sincere, and said she can always count on me to come up with an answer or example to clarify a student's misconceptions at a moments notice. That was nice to hear.

I’ll be your back up singer anytime!! You’re the best singer!!

Come on, cheer yourself up and post something!!

For no reason at all my 34 year old daughter said," I love you"

A recent posting on my public profile board saying I was inspirational. These messages warm my heart.

I get praised often that no matter what setback I might come across I bounce back.

There's a newer guy I've been trying to help out at my recovery group. He said, "You really don't know how much I appreciate you being my friend." It took me a long time to think of that one; I just realized that I block out the positive & magnify the negative statements I hear.

When I got my blood work last week the phlebotomist (who I have been seeing regularly for years now) said I was strong.
In group Tuesday the counselors said I was "inspirational" because how I keep persevering through all this ********.

Now that I'm better, I've lost weight, groom better, dress better. A coworker this week said, "I gotta say, you look WONDERFUL! I'm not sure what it is, but you do."

I think the birds outside gave me a compliment—just by hanging out in my yard. I feed the birds. I saw one of the squirrels run up a chair to get a drink out of the bird bath (I put a plastic wicker chair there to make it easier for the birds to land.

That made me so happy

Someone out of nowhere texted me today and said I was awesome because I made it 30 days sober. I dont think Im awesome, but Ill take it .

My therapist once told me I was one of the 2 most courageous people he had ever known. I think about that a lot.

You wrote the best paper.

My oh so grown up, independent daughter randomly calls me up at different times of the day and night and says “I love you momma”. It feels like a hug and I smile.

Someone once told me I was just like my Mom. And that was a big compliment to me because my Mother is the best person in the world.

My teenage son said that he rates a girls attractiveness based on how I look. He said I'm a ten and thats how he rates all other girls. But they're never as beautiful as me. I thought he was joking but he wasn't. made my day.
