It shouldn't be special. To me it is.. I find myself thanking people that spend time with me on games or discord. Etc. I can only imagine how awkward it makes it. But I can't help but appreciate that small amount of time I was shown companionship. The times I really put myself out there to try, if it's successful it feels new, kind of weird. I don't do it everytime, but I hope people are aware their company is valued, and it really pushes me to be more. Thank you.
