Or a multitude of other reasons- am I starting to over explain? It’s not even that I care if I sound stupid, I just try to not say things that make me uncomfortable- this is definitely not something I always succeed at doing.
And moments of realization. Or panic. Probably both.
This moment actually happened, about 3 years ago, and the look on the lady’s face when I responded really made me realize that I should really start trying to learn how to accept compliments. Still not the best at it- sometimes I still end up rambling in an attempt to deflect praise… but I am getting better at Keeping my Damn. Mouth. Shut- sometimes.
