I like my teasing insults back and forth banter that I have with most my friends. We don't cross lines. I like sarcasm and being allowed to metaphorically bite. I am confident, I don't have many insecurities.
But still, reassurance is good. I like hearing that my friends think I'm clever or kind or funny. And sometimes I don't really know how to ask for that.

I love a person who knows who they are and what they like and what they are good at, but also respects other people and is kind. I also have a dry sense of humor so people who can match that always get me. But this doesn't necessarily mean loud or outgoing, I have liked people who are and who are not.
I just feel like secure and confident is the hottest thing a person can be. Thoughtful and competent is a close second. People who can share the responsibility and help make a plan or make decisions. I don't know if it's just me but I feel like that's a rare quality, and it's nice to have someone be able and willing to put on the work to see you and have a good time.

The best compliments for me are always really specific. in those moment I feel really seen, and it’s the being seen I think rather than the necessarily the compliment that hits! Three examples:
- my producer when working on my EP said “you have a great ear, Nancy”
- a guy in my writers group when I’d not long joined told me “the comments you make on others’ work is always a joy to listen to and I always find myself agreeing. you can tell it comes from compassion not judgement”
- my boyfriend when we’d just started seeing each other said “i like the texture of your brain” and then made a meme of his shitposting page saying “your brain texture pleases me”. that was the height of romance.

Sure, maybe I come off as a bit silly to everyone else, but it’s so fun and feels like the best way for me to communicate why I’m recommending what I am

There's nothing like seeing the city from a plane windows. Sparkling like stars down there. The little people in their little cars and twinkling homes. Feels so bittersweet and human somehow.

More specifically, watching your favorite rom com and then your crush's favorite rom com (is there an adult word for crush), back to back at the same time as they are watching them. But instead of the social exhaustion of video calling you just text while you watch them. Even better you guys like each other mutually, so it should be exhilerating, but they cannot and will not be with you so instead it's just a lesson in your terrible self restraint. Exhilerating anyway. Good movies, good conversation. Unbeatable.
