one of the hardest things for me to do is accept support from other people, and one of the things that makes it easier for me is remembering that it feels nice to help someone i care about, even when i'm going out of my way… so why wouldn't other people feel that way about me, too?
Yeah 💖 Similarly, I love it so much when people feel comfortable coming to me with something they're struggling with and even more when they ask directly for specific assistance... so why, when I know what I want or need, is it so difficult to ask for it? :/
this is literally a conversation corinne and i have to have occasionally for both of our sakes.
“oh right, i love being helpful. i go out of my way to be helpful and it makes me happy when someone says, ‘yes, please.’ right right.”
