As Trappeur and Moonshine said
there's no shame in making someone's day. I'm very much like
you myself. It also brings me joy
to see someone happy. Without opening a can of worms here and suggesting maybe as women we're conditioned this way
idk ? I can only speak for myself.
My mom is this way too, always putting me & my siblings needs before hers. Don't try to change
who you are, afterall that's what
makes you , you & special.
