ringsandcoffee1. What's one of the nicest things a friend has ever done for you?
The first Christmas I couldn't go home to California (2017), Natalie came over while I was out to dinner with another friend and put up a Christmas tree for me, with a few ornaments, and also a couple strings of lights. I walked in the door to see it and was so surprised. I still have that tree and the lights.
2. What's one of the nicest things a stranger has ever done for you?
I hope I can remember an answer to this before it's time to post.
Came back to this question, and I can vaguely remember something. Grrrr my memory sucks sometimes.
3. What is a trait in another person that you instantly admire, and that draws you to them?
If they like something that I like, and we can geek out together.
4. What is a trait in another person that instantly repels you, and prevents you from forming a close relationship with them?
Pretty much anything negative. Rudeness, complaining, bad attitude.
5. Time to vent: tell us about something rotten someone has done to you.
Intentionally vague here, but 7th grade.

Date: 2025-11-15 03:43 pm (UTC)Here are mine:
1) My friends back in university helped me study and prep for finals, and they brought snacks too.
2) Held doors open for me when my knee was injured, and I had to walk with a cane, along with an obvious brace.
3) Willingness to reach out and show compassion for others.
4) Backhanded compliments, gossiping, passive-aggressive comments, and all that rot.
5) Went behind my back and threw me under the bus to save their own hide.
