Quote: I never was very good at complimenting him - it's taken me lots of practice to get comfortable with it. Now, I can do it without feeling like it's fake on my part. I think it's important to him - WOA...so, I trained myself to do it - because it's important to him. Now, it's not so awkward for me, and it makes him happy. What better reason to do it.
Why was it so hard? I know you said you took the opposite stance as the "fans" but what about before he had "fans"? Was it just as hard for you to compliment him then?
I ask both because I think answering may help you, AND help me. My W is the same way. She almost NEVER compliments me and I really wish she would (mental note...directly tell her this some day). I am trying to gain insight from you.
