I wonder if this is a common experience because I've had basically the exact same thing happen to me. It's like it feels inauthentic but also they're saying nice stuff that no one ever does so I don't really want to tell them to stop...

    That's what makes it so fucked up, like we were really eager to feel validated that we let it come from insincere, weaponized places, and that's kinda the point of it

    Yeah worst part is it makes you unsure later if people are just pretending or not. In college I wouldn't trust people weren't just pretending to like being around me as a joke :/ takes a while of actually being appreciated to get over it..
