Say you met a man or woman and they thought YOU were too good to be true. The words that extracted forth from your mouth were perfect to them, and let's not forget about how beautiful they thought you were. If they tell you that you're too good to be true, are you going to deny it and see it as this horrible put down, or agree and say "Hell yeah, I sure am?"
I ask this because a new guy in my life seems to always know the perfect thing to say in order to put a smile on my face. We met almost two months ago while I was enjoying a girl’s night out. We talk often and he's absolutely great, and of course handsome. But he falls under the too good to be true category.
Why? well because apparently he thinks I'm the most beautiful girl in California, and he has no problems telling me all the time. He's the type of guy that girls dream about. I wake up and find the sweetest messages on my cell that he sends while I'm sleeping. He wants to make me smile and feel great; his words not mine. Now don't get me wrong, all this is great but I guess since I'm not used to a guy being so caring (sad I know) I'm not sure how to react.
It's ridiculous when you have bad luck with men, or women, because when a great one comes along you expect them to be another asshole like the last one. But don't we want better for ourselves?
So when I get messages such as: "Just in case nobody has complimented you today, you are the hottest girl on Earth.."
Do I sleep with one eye open because who knows how many other girls he's telling this too (although he claims none) or take it for what it is...a guy who wants to make me happy unlike the past jerks in my life?
What do you think?

Here's what I think:
There is a far greater reward in placing value in how YOU feel about YOURself, versus setting the bar of your self-worth via the opinion of a man, or anyone in that case. If you live your life anticipating for someone to tell you how amazing you are, then you are not doing your job of being a unique individual. You have limited your ability to self-discover what it is that makes you especially incredible.
Love, Bry
