Killing Compliments

So the exGF wrote something really nice about me in her end of the year newsletter. Actually, it might  be considered "gushing" as it is complementary. to the point of embarrassing:

"The most amazing, selfless wise soul. One day,
we will. One day. I really believe it. Thank you for believing in me.
Despite all the passive aggressive nay-sayers who have sailed through
my life, my confidence in myself remains strong because you are there
to support me. And thank you for making me feel like the most beautiful
woman in the world even when I’m sick as a dog and have no makeup on. I
look forward to our growing pains. Our story is not over."

Someone please explain to me why receiving such accolades feels like being stabbed with a very large rusty nail — perhaps a pike even.

I don’t think I am a romantic, but love is not supposed to work that way right? I mean you would think someone like the mouse described above would not be in my situation, right? Sometimes compliments hurt, especially when they make you question logic and the human heart. What am I supposed to do with this? Feel good? I am a confused mouse.

For the record, I hope this is the last exGF post for a good long while.
