Is it normal to cry when complimented/reassured?

Not really much to say about this..

Just the smallest things make me feel so special and loved. Even random comments on the internet saying things like "it's going to be ok" make me cry a lot.

No one ever says nice things to me anymore. I've grown up with people abusing me in numerous ways and I don't think anyone has ever loved me.

    Sounds like you have low self esteem

    I also grew up not being complimented and assured by the people I cared about the most, so, all these years later, I take every positive thing said to me to heart. Its definitely very normal and I'm happy that you're finding love that you weren't able to before. I send you lots of smiles and appreciation :)
