Should I feel stupid about what I did?

Question

It's been very hard for me to open up to other people. I haven't had much luck making a lot of friends. At work there are a few girls who try to get me out of my shell and they really listen to me and hear me even tho I talk quietly. I wrote them a thank you note for really being there for me and I complimented a few aspects of their personality that I value. But now I'm nervous and worried that they'll think I'm weird or will make fun of me for what I wrote. When I do stuff like that I guess I really just put my heart into it so now I'm really unsure if I did the right thing. They seem like really caring people who wear their hearts on their sleeve, but I still worry.

Should I feel stupid about what I did?

Answer 1

I used to feel that way sometimes too.  But you know what, don't worry about it.  i am sure they will think what you said is nice.  if you did not do anything at all then maybe it would be like you did not appreciate the help they gave you.  Just be yourself.

Answer 2

no i think that is sooo nice

Answer 3

This is the real world, of course you should feel stupid. Now they will think you're a weirdo.

Answer 4

YES YOU SHOULD FEEL LIKE c**p.

JUST EAT SOME PARTICLES THEN YOU WILL BE HAPPY ONCE AGAIN!

Answer 5

no, what you did was sweet. if other people don't appreciate it that's there problem.

Answer 6

no. you are so sweet that you do this to them.

Answer 7

i don't think that they'll take it as weird. they'll probably be happy that you opened up a bit more to them :)

Answer 8

No way, don't feel stupid.  My situation is a little different, I had a hard time asking for help at work when I was overwhelmed and without my asking several girls stepped up and helped me get caught up.  So I bought them all little candles and wrapped them in tissue paper and tied them with a ribbon with a little card that simply said :thanks:  So after I put them all on everyone's desk I totally panicked!  I was afraid they would think i was weird!  But they actually really appreciated the gesture.  People like to know they are appreciated.

Answer 9

nah, don't feel "stupid" about what u did. no use crying over what's been spilled. it already happened. you've made a decision already, so leave it is as it is. if u get a result that u didnt want, then u know for next time to try a different approach. however if u get the result that u wanted, then, just think a little more carefully next time ur in similar situations so that u dont feel this way again. overall, time will answer your question

and yea i agree as well,, writing a letter is really sweet and sincere, i couldnt imagine people who "wear their hearts on their sleeves" and who listen to you and try to help you saying anything at all about ur letter. my friend, look at it that way, ya got nothing to worry about. plus, u even complimented them, they'll appreciate it

Answer 10
