Hey Pandas, What Is The Nicest Thing Anyone Has Ever Said To You? (Ended)

An English teacher (in a Russian university) told me at the final exam "It's been a pleasure to teach you". In front of all the class! It was both embarrassing and nice.

Once I complained to my husband that I had gained some weight. He said, “I would love you if you were the fattest woman in the world.” ❤️

Once I got an anonymous letter that said "Trust in yourself as much as I trust in you, and then everything will be alright." It resonated with me because I have self-confidence issues, and trusting myself was always a big problem.

Difficult to pick one nicest to top them all, but I'll choose one that I remember because I found it funny in an adorable way.

So, it was back when I was in university. My hair is long and naturally straight, but also easily electrified and it can, to my eyes, look like a total mess if I don't brush occasionally, or if I didn't wash it in the morning. So, I was having a bad hair day, and I didn't feel very pretty that day. At the end of classes, as I was walking on campus towards the exit, I overheard some young women commenting on my hair and they were positive comments, they literally called it "the hair of a goddess" (여신의 머리). I must admit, it made my day.

You deserve to live.......Don't ask.

We picked this nursing home because of you. Not because of how it looked, or how it was run, but because of you and your demeanour. (I showed them around when their mother was needing nursing care).

You're tolerable. From the grumpiest person alive

My dad told me he loved me. He told me that all the time, but the reason it was the nicest thing I ever heard is because it was the last thing he said before he passed away while holding my hand.

After being up all night, I was lying exhausted in bed with our finally-sleeping newborn on my chest, bedraggled hair, face, bathrobe. My husband leaned over to kiss me goodbye as he left for work and said: "I've never seen you look so beautiful."

From a grumpy old man 30 years my senior: "If is was queer, you'd be my guy."

"You are one of the most giving and kind person I know".

When I said I was nervous for middle school on bored panda and everyone gave me supportive comments. It made my day. :)

As a single parent, being told the kids you raised were just really good people. Hands down the best one ever .

- You have the right to be treated well and stand up for it, no matter what. (my flatmate)

- With you I had the healthiest relationship in my life so far. (a good friend with whom I had a love relationship for several years in the past)

- Maybe you didn't know, but you create a safe space for the queers of this university. (a student in one of my seminars)

“I think that we are still going to be soulmates in the after life.”

"We are glad to have adopted you"

“I met you 10 minutes ago but you are my new best friend.”

"You can do it."

You fought so hard, I'm so proud of you. Now it's time that I care for you, time for you to enjoy your well-deserved dinner. (nurse allowed me to eat a small pizza on ICU)

When I was young and tended to give myself worth based on my looks, a boyfriend told me what he liked about me was that I was "insightful". I knew I had a brain, but acted dumb to 'get guys'. He helped me reconfigure that worth away from my physical looks and centered on my mind.
Insightful.
