Positive Traits You Have (But Won’t Admit)
Remember the Toxic Traits You Have But Won’t Admit one?
Writing that one was easy, right? This one, however, is hard.* And I think that’s tragic. It’s a huge problem, actually. But y tho 😟. Why the struggle?
Not to sound creepy, but, I watched you grow up. I followed along, then kinda lost track. What I remember is you cherishing what you perceived as your strong qualities, and not feeling cringe about them. FOR FUCCS SAKE, you used to wear labels like emotional or creative almost like a badge of honor.
You don’t do that anymore it seems. What happened, bruh? Are you that embarrassed? Is it that you forgot you had them in the first place? Or did you get flooded by all the bad stuff the older you got? You’ve barely lived, what made you so jaded?
I don’t know what it is (and quite frankly, I don’t have time to figure it out rn), I’m just here to try and remind you of the good in you, I guess. How am I gonna do that? GLAD YOU ASKED. Well, I came up with four positive traits you have, but won’t ever admit to. You know I’m not one to give (excessive amounts of) compliments, they make me gag, but hey, I did my best, k? 🥴
1. Feelings (lol)
You’re emotional. Wait a second. Did you just.. flinch? Why do you hate the word so much?! It’s a good thing, ffs. For example, you’re a bit aloof and helpless when someone’s crying next to you, but, this doesn’t mean you’re an ice block, okay. You feel, deeply. Not in an ”I’m gonna cry** and give advice” kind of way, but you feel, man. So much. You are emotional, deal with it. You’re compassionate, kind, and (somewhat) empathetic. There, I said it. And now, you’re just gonna have to take my word for it.
2. Loyalty
You’re loyal. Yes. Don’t flinch again. It may not look like it, but you are loyal as fuuucc, gurl. You don’t keep grudges. Or well, maybe tiny ones? The size of a cotton ball! No, they’re more like, the size of a q-tip. And then you brush things off and try to see the good. Just so you know: Sometimes it’s okay to be loyal from afar, too! Doesn’t make you any less loyal.
3. Creativity
You’re creative (stop flinching already). I mean honestly. Your brain works in mysterious ways. Even when you don’t see it; ESPECIALLY when you don’t see it. You’re very critical and ✨extra✨ annoying about this one, I know I know, but it’s true. I don’t mean your art or your writing, btw. That shiiiet’s some low-quality, low-level peasant stuff. (No offense.) You’re creative in the way you think, not necessarily the way you display it (if that makes any sense). This is the moment where you should pat yourself on the back. Keep up the good work. Keep the juices flowing. The mess unfolding. Keep that brain a workaholic one.
4. Resistance
You’re resistant. Self-assertive, level-headed. You act like a pussaay sometimes, but I deadass don’t know why you do that. Stop downplaying, stop minimizing. You’re a bad beeetch and everyone (especially you) should know it 💅🏻. Self-irony*** is so passé, God complex is where it’s at. Just embrace it already, don’t act coy.
If I were you, I would have cracked under the pressure you’ve been under so far. Seriously, I’d be calling the looney bin my home for years now. But not you. I don’t know what keeps you going (you’re gonna have to tell me eventually), but keep on going.
I don’t know how to say this without sounding cheesy but I admire you. Omg yikes, this was so corny. I think I just vomited in my mouth a little as I typed this.
TL;DR: You got a fabulous set of skills and positive traits, and you should flaunt them. At all times. No exceptions.

**Well yeah, you DO cry but at the most random things sometimes, so I don’t factor that in.
***Let’s be honest. Your self-deprecating humor has gone a bit too far.
