15 of My Favorite Feelings

[@SmallMediumLarge41]

"Don't sniff each other's eye balls, unless it's consensual." ~ Hank Green, 2015.

[@bbyfcetm]

😂

[@isabellewalker3017]

Petition for this quote to be the next DFTBA t-shirt release

[@bbyfcetm]

Yes 1,000 times yes

[@krobara]

Isabelle Walker agreed!

[@elianna838]

SmallMediumLarge41 I think this is going to be my senior quote

[@chloebaumstark7992]

I really like that feeling when you've finished having a big cry over something and everything feels new and it's like the world is completely okay for a moment crying is so cathartic tbh

[@RomeoCo]

I like that moment when you're done working out (long distance cycling for me specifically) and everything hurts and it's hard to move, but you feel like a fucking super hero.

[@The_Skrongler]

I love that feeling.

[@tiffanym1862]

+Romeo Cote Sorry I just realized this was from 8 months ago. But now you're getting two notifications so congrats

[@RomeoCo]

Tiffany Makovic Ha! No worries mate.

[@samuelsmith7866]

1. Reading a book that has one of those quotes that you relate to so much and you think to yourself "Someone put that feeling into words!" and wanting that quote everywhere 2. Unironic sappiness 3. The feeling you get seeing someone who's company you enjoy smiling at you. 4. Finding a song by your favorite artist you hadn't heard 5. Chasing waves at the beach and the water brushing your legs That's just five but there's so much more in life that I like the feeling of

[@joshuaholtgreive3323]

Sam Smith Regarding number 1, I've always liked John's quote from Paper Towns: "We were still in the business of mutual amusement."

[@lenatour]

That last one

[@Regenschirmtier]

1. When you start reading a book again after a long time and you suddenly remember the strong love you felt for some characters and their relationship. 2. When you gave a present a lot of thought and you can see the person opening it being overwhelmed. 3. Finally feel like what you do for a living is the perfect thing for you to do. 4. When I'm talking about Supernatural and the actors and the person I talk to just lets me be passionate about it and smiles and asks questions. 5. When people remember something you once said and turn it into a gift. 6. Just being all like WHOA THIS EARTH AND OUR BODIES AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS SO AWESOME! I mean we create music and babies and other stuff and it's just mind-blowing!

[@Inucat]

Regenschirmtier Nr 2 definitely. I love buying thoughtful presents for friends and family members. Also Nr 3 especially when you are doing it and you are on a roll and time flies and then you stop and realize: yeah this is awesome. I never want to stop doing this.

[@GypsyInFenra]

I love all of these!

[@samhenderson3404]

+Regenschirmtier, hi I'm sam from aus. your line "when people remember something you once said and turn it into a gift" was super moving

[@Regenschirmtier]

+Emilise284 Same here... Haven't read anything of Diana Wynne Jones, but I'm gonna look her up. Thanks! (:

[@Regenschirmtier]

+Sam Henderson Hi Sam from aus (: Always happy to move a heart. ;) Hope you have a great day!

[@fossilfighters101]

I've always really loved at some small parties, when my friends and I would just sit in a circle and talk very openly and discuss intimate things about ourselves. One of my favorite things in life at the moment.

[@fossilfighters101]

Also, the fact that I can just call up my friend and, crying, go, "I need to stay at your place tonight because my brother's downstairs with his friends getting drunk and annoying and I won't be able to sleep with that," and her being like, "Sure." Or like talking to people you're sorta friends with and realizing that they're really nowhere near as monotone as you've made them out to be and enjoying their imperfections. And then getting teary as I read this comments section. Also, stupid girly high school flirting and having him flirt back and then giggling about it with your friends.

[@VibronxGirl]

fossilfighters101 That's awesome

[@nataliefraser5718]

My friends and I are just like this, and it's so wonderful. I'm glad you get the feeling too.

[@fossilfighters101]

Natalie Fraser It really is. Makes me glad that you too have friends like that~

[@madiegraham1924]

Same! It's such a beautiful thing.

[@LiftMyEyes121]

That feeling when someone agrees to listen to a song/artist you suggested and they make a point to come back and tell you why they loved it.

[@tryingtoescapemyissuesinlife]

[@seopark7467]

im so addicted to this feeling that my friends are very annoyed at me.

[@fakered_head]

Oh my goddddddd I do this all the time and I’m always afraid the other person doesn’t care or is annoyed so I’m so glad this makes people happy!!!

[@h3corptempbutevadinganass]

Why does no one do that...... big +

[@adampartridge1903]

Someone remembering something you said to them, and just spontaneously bringing it up, clearly showing that they were listening and they remembered.

[@yellowskittle73]

Proof that the internet CAN be nice and supportive to each other. Isn't it more fun than trolling? 😁

[@nickwebster87]

capitalistraven ironic trolling is one of the things i enjoy

[@Falcondances]

K.C. That's the point

[@capitalistraven]

KT Dubya You're welcome

[@KTGetc]

Best feeling? Making someone who is hilariously funny laugh. Riffing back and forth with funny people. Finding someone who shares your sense of humor. Humor is so important, guys. Humor is how we carry on.

[@funhippocampus7827]

So true, my sense of humor is so weird and sarcastic that if I find someone who gets it, and can build upon something I said and use it against me, I will be overwhelmed with joy, I'll probably end up marrying them, a witty conversation is the ultimate foreplay.

[@TapirUnge]

Fun Hippocampus This.. So much this! - So hi there :D

[@AllTheGoldfish]

Yes! This is exactly what I was gong to write!

[@funhippocampus7827]

TapirUnge :) Hi !

[@braileyvine9629]

+KTGetc So true

[@harjashow]

my favourite feeling is when something works out and you finally understand why everything else didn't

[@MonniqueSaoPaio]

JANA VLOGS That feels soo good! It's like when you stop and realize you are exactly where you wanted to be but never thought you would be!

[@phantomstrider]

Don't know if this happens to everyone but I sometimes get this weird wave of gratefulness for a brief moment of all the good things in my life. For a couple of seconds I feel kinda contented and excited. I like that.

[@ender4344]

YES! It's the best feeling ever!

[@eugenieenglish]

that moment when you create something you're so proud of you can honestly just look at it and say yes, this is incredible.

[@AliRaza-qc9tz]

Like a baby.

[@Annabelsong108]

a novel

[@jourdainpita7233]

When you make a reference, and a random stranger gets it. And talking about something that you are afraid no one will appreciate it understand, and the outcome is the opposite.

[@jourdainpita7233]

*or understand

[@llamaslemonade9133]

Oops, accidentally disliked this (promptly removed it) meant to like it.

[@elizabethbrand134]

one of my absolute favorite feelings is when I meet someone and they begin to talk about something theyre passionate about and they go to this different place and their eyes light up and the ramble on about details upon details about the thing theyre passionate of. I love hearing it even if its nothing some I'm particularly interested in because I learn more about it and see how happy it makes them as they bubble up using their hands to describe what theyre talking about.

[@mirandabonifield890]

YES. This is one of my favorite things. This is why I go and read other people's favorite books, because I love seeing them like that.

[@LiluKlettert]

THIS. YES.

[@wiesoauchimmer1879]

OMG I've been waiting for this comment to show up!!! YESSSS!!! I love this!!!!!!!!

[@jamesmontavon850]

One of my favorite feelings is when I start talking about what I'm super passionate about and then remember that that can be annoying and I check in with the person (verbally or non-verbally) and they're genuinely interested, kinda the reverse side of that emotion

[@fefalim13]

When you shuffle your playlist on Spotify and it starts playing your favourite song, or when you're somewhere random and a band or singer you really like is playing.

[@erinmcallister1016]

-dancing in the rain -reading a line or a poem that just rolls off of your tongue -someone openly expressing that they care about you -listening to a song or smelling a scent that reminds you of something lovely -being proud of something -laughing with someone you love -getting over a fear -hot showers + loud music -shaved legs + bed sheets -the smell of old books -finishing a task that you've been dreading -when someone plays with your hair -screaming -that feeling after a good long cry -telling a secret -when a new episode of Sherlock comes out ...oh wait, that last one never happens

[@erinmcallister1016]

also being hugged by someone warm

[@catherinelariviere8562]

I completely agree with every single item on this list. Especially the sherlock one. very true.

[@bonniehowell6604]

It makes me feel great when my grandkids call me for no reason just to say ' I love you'.

[@cole3053]

Good to know grandma's appreciate that!

[@matthewmalbrough2632]

One of my favorite feelings is when you make something and people genuinely enjoy it. Like writing or art or just a joke. Making people happy is amazing

[@dg-we7fj]

+Matthew Malbrough yes!!

[@julielafranzo5468]

+

[@Animenite97]

SO GOOD!!!!!

[@ender4344]

It makes me so happy when people genuinely laugh at my jokes and enjoy spending time with me. Makes ne feel like the best person on this planet!

[@UdyKumra]

"Don't sniff each other's eyeballs...unless it's consensual." Hank Green 2015

[@Chouetterargentee]

Many of these are also my favorite feelings. Another one: when you get to make someone you like a lot laugh. I love that. Also: when you and other people have been working towards something you all care about and you finally succeed and you're all like "YES" and get to be victorious together. That is also the best. Oh, and of course: coming home after a long day and seeing a new Vlogbrothers video has been uploaded. Hard to beat that feeling. :)

[@Chouetterargentee]

I thought of a couple more. Hank mentioned figuring things out. Similar but slightly different/more specific: the moment when you finally understand something that has never quite made sense before. Like, the heart-racing OH MY GOD I GET IT moment? That happens in math class maybe? If you are exhausted by being social, the feeling of utter relief at being alone again. That feeling when music, er, swoops? ??? Being accepted, especially if it's something you've not been accepted for before.

[@camouflagefluff3215]

Fourteen Lines yes!!!!! These are all great!!!! I really love the one about making someone you love laugh. Especially when the laughter is kind of sudden and loud. It's kind of lightening strikes you when the person laughs like that. And music swoops are yay.

[@RedBar3D]

Yesssssss, spot on.

[@RoaaMegahed]

God, yasss!! New Vlogbrothers videos are an important reason this world doesn't reaaaaly suck. It sucks, but there's a bit that doesn't -- Vlogbrothers videos are a part of it.

[@DanThePropMan]

Fourteen Lines Amen to making someone you like a lot laugh. Especially if you've known them for a long time. It combines the feeling of accomplishment with the feeling of making people happy.

[@brwneyedgirlx19]

That feeling when two characters in your favorite TV show or book series FINALLY get together after flirting and denying it to themselves endlessly for books/episodes. Just the release of YAAAASSSS.

[@bulman07]

YAAAASSSS! Scott Mills made me say it.

[@stomyn]

Tessa Even better is when it is done in such a way that just feels right. The writers didn't just say "Ok, let's just slap them together already and be done with it", but instead take their time to do it in such a way that is natural and beautiful and satisfying and just...right. Such a great feeling

[@Crystalvampire66]

Tessa That is such a good feeling. Especially when your ships usually don't work out

[@Animenite97]

2 words The Robin

[@brwneyedgirlx19]

stomyn Yes! I think part of what makes it so great is the feeling that it was earned.

[@anneliesegelberg1780]

Some of my favorite feelings: -When someone casually refers to you as their friend -When younger kids look up to you and you get to teach them stuff and mentor them -When you see another nerdfighter in public! -When you're so excited about something in the morning that you're not even tired -Just relaxing and thinking, "it's okay. I can be myself now"

[@beccaviljoen]

Having moments with your best friend where you're completely happy talking and you're enjoying yourself and feel like you're part of a friendship that will last forever.

[@battousai9795]

One of my favorite feelings is having a deep meaningful talk with someone you like being with, just telling them those thoughts that had been stuck in your head for the last few days and you thought no one would ever know, plus the feeling of knowing that they understand you, or at least that they really listen to you, and they open up as well. I just came back from having one of those and it feels great. I wish I could have this more often, I don't wanna forget how it feels, but i guess the fact that this talks are so uncommon, is what makes them this great.

[@castielwinchester5577]

Yeah I feel ya, its good to let your thoughts and feelings out, once in a while :')

[@jayb555-r9k]

That moment when you find the sweet spot on the mattress after a long day of work. Waking up in the morning on a sunny day. The stillness of the room, the light sneaking it's way in and bouncing off of small specks of dust in the air is just amazing.

[@Neha71580]

***** My room is on the opposite side so the sun rays usually come in my room at evening. It's still amazing though, especially when I come from school and my room's all lit up like heaven like Ta-daa!

[@IthinkIneedAhug]

***** I work overnights, I how I miss those moments...

[@MattPalka]

***** My window in my room is directly in line with the sunrise. So good.

[@elephantschild]

IthinkIneedAhug *hug*

[@jayb555-r9k]

This comments thread is like the Nessie of the internet for me. You hear about nice and productive conversations happening on the internet, but you never really see it. Congratulations everyone!!

[@mayas3422]

-learning stuff? like that moment when you something you've been trying to understand finally clicks in your mind and the clouds part and the angels sing and you just go "yes, yes everything makes sense!" -teaching someone something and them understanding it, it's so beautiful like I've chipped away at your towering mountain of ignorance! -laughing so hard with someone you love at something so funny it makes your abs hurt and you've stopped making noise and now you're laughing at each other. -feeling like you're apart of something important to you (* cough cough * fandoms) -doing really well on something you were afraid of messing up like an exam or a competition -winning an argument but leaving on good terms -relating perfectly to a character and my favorite: -someone complimenting you on something you have worked hard on and are proud of. It's the best.

[@mayas3422]

and also this. this beautiful community of people who recognize that rants are fun but not uplifting and proceed to produce the most beautiful and inspiring collection of comments.

[@kf10147]

When someone says (* cough cough* fandoms)

[@veronicab32]

YESSS!!! Also, the glory of realizing you actually understand what you're doing in math class and it's surprisingly easy and you feel like you can rule the world

[@sammyangel98]

The feeling when you open a book, and read just a few paragraphs and find out it's going to be amazing. Also that feeling when someone genuinely complimenting something about you, especially a quality you spend time working on. It feels so appreciated :D

[@IXPrometheusXI]

I love the feeling when you're arguing with someone on the Internet, and it looks like they're going to start swearing at you and leave, but then you come to an agreement and end the conversation on good terms. So good. Similarly, when you spend like 20 minutes on a long post and someone compliments you on it. I also just generally like it when someone tells me I sound smart.

[@mermaidismyname]

Taylor Bennett I agree with all of this. Except maybe the smart thing, people call me smart so often it gets on my nerves a bit. But then again if someone called me stupid I would be very upset. Also when a comment gets thumbs up I know it is dorky but I am always like "OMG VALIDATION SOMEONE AGREES WITH ME"

[@elliottmcdowell5568]

Taylor Bennett You sound smart

[@IXPrometheusXI]

Elliott McDowell​ Aw!

[@bn7613]

You sound smart 😊

[@mallorystrom7511]

I actually appreciate this post so much right now.

[@sarkasticchik9133]

Reading or watching something beautiful, sort of like this video.

[@KylaNiva]

Agreed! I love to feel like I have connected to something after I have read/watched it. It's so completing, in a way. And I feel like I have connected to someone when that happens, like the person who created it. It's awesome :-)

[@kibrika]

Sarkastic Chik Ha, you made me remember, how I got all tery eyed and how touching I found the first "a lot of people enjoy this" vlogbrothers videos. I don't remember speciffically which ones, but I think they were some of the first birthday videos, and nerdfighters falling in nerdfighterlove videos. They were really nice.

[@eelsemaj99]

I actually found this quite relatable

[@akeleti8]

James Lee When you find something that you can relate to completely. :) Because I think often people say things that, as much as you try to relate, you can't because you haven't had that exact experience.

[@Pining_for_the_fjords]

***** You're on 8 at the moment and I don't have the heart to bump it up to 9.

[@MaraK_dialmformara]

Singing a song you love at the top of your lungs and not caring who hears you. Also in general knowing you don't have to be self-conscious about what (or who) you love.

[@hannaho9471]

Mara K Yes! Singing at the top of your lungs is amazing!

[@keetrandling4530]

when you need help, and you finally ask for help, and then you actually GET said help. that's very nice.

[@caitlindemara2308]

Some of my favorite feelings: -realizing how happy you are in a perfect moment and smiling and tearing up -stepping back and looking at a finished something when you bitched about it the entire process -watching an amazing vlogbrothers video ( see what I did there? :P)

[@RoosStokkel]

Caitlin DeMara I smiled and teared up right there :)

[@mermaidismyname]

Caitlin DeMara number two is like legit my life

[@4dianasaur]

Caitlin DeMara You put into words what I was thinking. GO YOU.

[@MsPersianSwag]

Caitlin DeMara Number two is so important

[@EliteHero17]

The feeling you have when you're with your closest friend(s) and in that moment you're not depressed or awkward or confused, you're happy and at peace, just in that very moment.

[@CiarradeBritto]

Skyler Strider It's like your heart can finally relax :)

[@EliteHero17]

***** Or mind to be scientific. Or soul to be poetic. :P

[@CiarradeBritto]

Skyler Strider Haha exactly. :) Have a great day, friend. Stay smiling.

[@EliteHero17]

***** :) thanks. Pretty rare you find kindness like this on the internet, especially in the KZbin comments. Nerdfighters ftw!!

[@CiarradeBritto]

Skyler Strider Just trying to spread around more positive vibes :D

[@pianofluteflute]

Writing a song, and you finally get it right and finish it, and then you play it, and it's just so ugh yes. Singing your heart out when no one's home. When something goes right in a book and just feel so happy for the character. After you move, going back home to visit friends, it's so wonderful. When boating, being at the very front with the wind in your face, where you can barely hear anything, but it feels like you're on top of the world. Dancing to your jam. Getting 100% on the state test and it's like heck yeah. Getting cozy in your bed for some great movies. Being part of swim thing so big and awesome and fun and you feel like nothing else matters. (I'm looking at you LeakyCon.) Feeling confident and strutting your stuff.

[@pianofluteflute]

*something Whoops.

[@candidlyclaudine1070]

I literally relate to every single thing on that list let's be best friends.

[@ABigHatProduction]

Nicole Tomaszewski Oh god, the boat one! YAS! That is one of the best things. Or when it's sunny outside and your favorite song comes on the radio and you roll down the windows in you car and sing your heart out with the wind beating you in time to the melody!

[@pianofluteflute]

+India Azalea Yes!! +ABigHatProduction I always like to pretend I'm riding a water horse or a hippogriff or something. Maybe a little childish, but oh so fun.

[@duhmez]

Nicole Tomaszewski My favorite is when the no talent hack that is room mates with me finally stops their annoying singing!

[@charlimarieTV]

it's lovely reading the comments on this video and seeing things that other people enjoy :) warm fuzzies!

[@PurpleLover523]

Although it may be weird to say this, and although I don't know how creepy you think this may sound, I love you, Hank. Thank you for being a bright light in my sometimes dark life.

[@ARP2wefightforyou]

It's not creepy.

[@blazing.bunny444]

It's not creepy at all!! C: I think most of us feel the same way :3

[@johnchekal6874]

JuliaTheBookMonster thats not creepy at all. Infact, it made my day :). you miss are truly made of awsome

[@autismgrows8990]

JuliaTheBookMonster Admitting that someone you've never met plays such a huge role in you life and happiness, even though you think it may sound creepy, that's an awesome feeling. Finding out that countless others feel the exact same way and that it's not creepy at all, is an even better one. ;)

[@camelopardalis84]

to Jeseka: Hope Hank reads your comment.

[@creativityjune3591]

1. Lying in bed after having a great, very happy day 2. Getting an unexpected burst of creativity and just making and thinking of ideas 3. Revisiting a favourite book/TV episode/movie and getting the same great feeling you had when you first read/watched it 4. When you finish a book and it was so good you just want to lay their and hug it and not leave that book world 5.Getting out of the house and having a great time doing something new 6. Reading all of these wonderful comments

[@creativityjune3591]

My favourites of Hank's ideas are -Figuring out a complicated thing like a real life problem or something in a book (or even a hard physics question that i've been trying to solve) -That moment when you realize that you can now do something very easily that a year ago would have been unthinkably difficult -When you read a book and all the plot threads come together magically -Taking a hot shower in the winter -Doing something scary and having it go really well -Being with friends who accept you and you get along great -Learning cool things to better understand the world

[@TheRedPrometheus]

The best feeling is when you meet someone you feel like you've known before and have been looking for them. Their eyes are like windows to their souls and you can see their vibe in them.

[@glennmcnamara4697]

And then your friend gets with her and you feel like shit.

[@louisewalsh9673]

music channel you okay friend?

[@louisetimm7575]

Hi other Louise on the internet

[@louisewalsh9673]

Louise Timm it's nice to meet you

[@CleverPsuedonym1]

I love the feeling of succeeding at things that I'm not necessarily awesome at! It's like "hey, I did it!"

[@HouseMDaddict]

Finding people that accept you for exactly who you are. I am always myself and people sometimes hate that I refuse to takes sides or that I am so confident in being exactly who I am, but when people actually come out and say "You're just an awesome person" not just validating in their actions, but actually their words that they think you're great for just embracing who you are. I also appreciate and say to other people who are comfortable in their skin how inspiring they are for me to keep being me.

[@malakkhaledhosny2525]

HouseMDaddict You indeed are a wonderful person :) I find this really relatable and I know how hard it can be at the beginning but it is awesome when you get used to it ..

[@nataliefraser5718]

You are awesome, and it's so great you have the confidence to be yourself. You go!

[@laurenwalker6875]

I think just having someone comment on something that you strive to be like, for example I always strive to be laid back and not let little things get to me and the other day I heard one of my friends say that I am definitely the most laid back person in our friend group and that feeling, it was kinda like I acomplished something but something so much more important was just amazing.

[@laurenwalker6875]

I also love your username

[@HouseMDaddict]

thank you everyone! You're awesome too =)

[@Fl0ep]

I think one of the best feelings is when someone says they appreciate you and/or your work. I feel that we, as a society, don't let others know we appreciate them enough.

[@Tigermond1]

Fl0ep I appreciate this comment. ;)

[@Fl0ep]

Tigermond1 I appreciate you appreciation. DFTBA

[@Tigermond1]

Fl0ep I appreciate your appreciation of my appreciation. ... Oh no, we're stuck in an infinite loop, there's no way out, NOOOOOOO... (Sorry. ;P)

[@the-thane]

My favourite feeling is the feeling I get when I make someone else feel good.

[@CiecieNewson]

אבהו דלשר Good one!

[@alanmesri2808]

[@HouseMDaddict]

[@Rachel-zm9up]

When you’re in an orchestra and you’ve just finished a piece and the violins still have their bows in the air and everyone’s watching the conductor who hasn’t put his arms down yet and there’s just this faint ringing from the last note between the music before and the applause after. That’s my favorite.

[@trace_tomorrow]

Oh god, that imagery was so resonant! Thank you! That makes me happy just thinking about it. I’ve never been in an orchestra, but know that it’s amazing for everyone in the audience too!

[@jessicahawkins1464]

I used to be in orchestra and I love this feeling too!

[@kristianmaiorca5138]

One of my favorite feelings is watching people open up a gift that I made specifically for them. I love giving gifts and seeing people open them. And on the flipside of that, getting a present that someone made or put a lot of work into just for me, since then its kind of like, you must really like me to put that much work into it, and it just makes me want to give back to them and spend more time with them. reconnecting with old friends. Laying in a hammock with nothing to do but read a book and maybe have a beer.

[@Witchy_bab]

My 15 Favourite feelings: ~opening a new book ~standing outside after a thunder storm ~ seeing a new video of a youtuber i enjoy ~drawing exactly what you pictured in your mind ~seeing the waiter bring your favourite food ~ teaching someone something new ~ when your useless knoledge comes into conversation and you sound like the smartest person in the room ~Someone you care about brings up something you said a while ago, to show that they care and listen to you too ~ Cat let's you rub his belly without it being a trap ~When a really big dog cuddles with you like a smol pup ~ Cuddling while watching/listening something with the person you love and they randomely kiss your forehead/cheek ~ Talking to a good friend you haven't seen in a while ~Meeting new people in a familiar setting ~Rewatching a movie/tv series or rereading a book you haven't seen in a long time and enjoy it even more the second time ~ Having my favourite cup of tea on a cold autumn day

[@marianhenderson1759]

That feeling where you wake up on a bright, sunny, Saturday morning and you realize that you have no priorities for that day so you can just do whatever. Also, the feeling of when you first put the needle down on a vinyl record!

[@mathmusicminecraft]

When you honestly, really help someone. When you see they're broken and you fix them and you enjoy it. When you push the right buttons because somehow you know what to do. And it works. And you feel like you can fly. When someone tries to hurt you and for once you have strength to be kind. When you don't do it to spite them, or to circumvent their assault by doing something unexpected. When you do it because you a strong right now and you are OK right now and you have the time. And you do it because you can.

[@maggiemagpie5560]

[@shelly1339]

this was so adorable. :) my favourite feeling is like, randomly remembering something really cool that happened to you, or something really funny you did a few months ago and just laughing out of nowhere because remembering that thing makes you happy. that's awesome.

[@alleras46]

You're right, that is awesome.

[@jacobt754]

Shelcy Titus Same, except I sometimes do it in public and people look at me weird.

Best feeling I've ever experienced: being accurately diagnosed with my mental illnesses after years of being told it was all in my head. The guilt and blame I carried around for not being able to function like everyone else was lifted from my shoulders. It was this moment of deep relief when someone said "it's pretty impressive that you have a 3.7 gpa while also having 5-6 diagnostically individual mental disorders."

[@jacobmaclane4495]

Emma Love Amen to that... Although, seeing as though they are disorders, they are kind of all in our heads... Although I know exactly what you mean, or at least I hope I do. I have never met you, nor have I ever heard your voice, but nonetheless I feel as though I have a connection with you through none other than my mental abnormalities. Anyway, I will simply not go on a rant any longer, so... Adieu.

When a friend unexpectedly does something thoughtful for you (like, when I broke up with my last boyfriend, my friends surprised me at work with flowers, chocolate, and Mountain Dew) 5. When you find the perfect present for someone and you get to see the look on their face when they open it

[@LizTiddington]

And even if you just read through them, they are full of insightful things. This is an amazing feat, looking at any other youtube comment section would show that.

[@natalieelessar]

In all honesty, the first thing that comes to mind when I think about a favorite feeling has gotta be: - Falling in love with someone in a book... I may be a hopeless romantic in the fictional world, but the feeling when a really good part of a novel when you just start to really fall in love with that character and can't stop thinking about them is just... mm :) and also sometimes depressing... - When you have a friend that understands your references to the fandom you're in (marvel films and books etc) These are what comes to mind uncontrollably first thing, but when I think about it the most that makes me happy i guess, is: - When I really make my Mother proud

[@nicolestewart2843]

I AGREE! I love finding a fictional character to fall in love with. It may sound a bit unhealthy to some but no shame coming from this game. It is why I prefer TV shows to movies. If you love a character there is a lot more to watch! :) I am 31 and the way it makes me feel takes me back to my teenage years. It's definitely a very bittersweet feeling but I enjoy it.

[@magniamhicentbooks9368]

Yeah I agree:) eg. William Herondale

[@samanthatroi85]

Natalie Herondale I've fallen in love with so many fictional characters.... Harry Dresden from The Dresden Files

[@CreativeNightingale]

I've fallen in love with multiple fictional characters! And I've felt like a family/sibling kinda love for some fictional characters too!

[@MegaKaitouKID1412]

Natalie Herondale This. Falling in love with fictional characters is one of the best things. A related one: I also really love that moment when I realize I love my own fictional characters. Like, I'm about to spend about a hundred thousand words with these people, and that first moment I fall in love with them is just a great moment of realizing that actually I am going to be able to write their entire story without giving up halfway through.

[@swati05590]

The feeling when someone runs up to u to hug u becoz they havent seen u for a long time.

[@NotTotallyHopeless]

the bad people thing is so very true. There was a girl who bullied and harassed me and one of my best friends to the point of almost ruining both of our lives. I hate her in a way I don't think I have ever hated someone before. But now that we're adults her life is falling apart and she's becoming more crazy and vicious and that small nasty part of me thinks she got what was coming to her, but mostly I just feel bad. Like, it's sad to see someone else have a terrible life, even if in some ways they deserve it. That's my message to younger nerdfighters who have bullies and wish bad things on those bullies. Those people might get what's coming to them and be miserable, but it won't make you feel better and it won't make what happened to you go away.

[@vlogbrothers]

NotTotallyHopeless I know...I've watched people go really high and get lots of recognition and money knowing the whole time that they're awful but not knowing what to do about it, and then when they come crashing down I'm like "OH LOOK! THE THING I WANTED IS HAPPENING" but all I feel is, like, "Oh, you're a messed up person, you've always been messed up, that's why you suck so much, and it's why you're self-destructing now."

[@RagnarokLoki2012]

***** I feel like it's a sign you're growing up - retribution is less important. What becomes important is how messed up things are or aren't around you.

[@sighcantthinkofaname]

NotTotallyHopeless I think part the reason it feels awful is it's not like the person has learned anything. If the person who hurt you realized their mistakes and tried to be a better person that might feel ok. You might feel better about your past and hate her a little less. Nothing could undo what happened, but when a person admits their mistakes it can help heal the people they've hurt. It gives closure, if nothing else. As it is she made you feel bad and now she feels bad. No one is better off. Suffering is never a good thing.

[@NotTotallyHopeless]

***** Yea, I think watching someone implode is never as pleasurable of an experience as it is made out to be. Every time I hear news about this girl now I just hope someone stops her and gets her some professional help.

[@NHyt32]

NotTotallyHopeless Holy crap, your story sounds remarkably similar to mine. Only she and I are not really adults as of yet. Still, her relationships are falling apart and the only people who really like her are kind of toxic people. I don't like her in any way, but I still kind of want to get her help because she's going to need it. I see her going down a dark hole that I'm not sure she'll come out of.

[@Liquessen]

Sittig in the dappled shade of a canopy on a warm day, just listening to birds and the wind. The smell of freshly cut grass makes me think of summers with my family. The wonderful spark of creativity that takes hold of your brain and says "you must write/make this now, NOW! Go go!" Seeing craftsmen at their work, to see expertise used and appreciated. A cup of warm tea when you're feeling blue. Being on a larp/vacation and removing your watch and your phone and just realising how calm it is to just take each day as they come. Listening to the blackbird sing at 3-4am as I'm going to bed.

So, in the spirit of that... opiates feel pretty good, unfortunately. That's not the main feeling I'm referring to though. I've been in recovery for two years, and that's a good feeling. Probably the best feeling I've ever had. The feeling that I can accomplish something that, at one time, seemed impossible to me. Also, the fact that I've overcome that and have been able to move on with my life - finishing my biology degree - feels pretty good.

Like, I don't know if it's sexist or I don't know but like big strong guys with tiny baby girls like just being adorable at parks. Just, all the >.

[@SincerityMoon]

LittleLionFlower Rain/water doesn't smell - it just increases your ability to smell the things around you (which means no farts in a shower - trust me). Also I love the smell of school supplies, new books, whiteboard markers, and crayons are really good. Some psychologist say that the reason seeing a man with a baby/child is so sexy has something to do with looking for a perfect partner/someone who will help protect/look after a family. Because you shared I will share that I love finally being brave enough to conquer a fear or at least confront it. I also love when you find a good part of a book that completely defines a character and just makes them better to you. Happy Monday

[@LittleLionFlower]

Well, I meant petrichor. The smell of the rain knocking up oils and fragrances. There was a sci show on it!

[@sydneynegron]

LittleLionFlower yo man totally not sexist to enjoy seeing big strong guys being adorable with tiny baby girls!! i think that's a great thing to enjoy because it's definitely going against what is expected of big strong men and stuff and enjoying it is being accepting of people going against the standards set for men (like of "oh we gotta be so tough and not be sappy or love anything and break stuff" (a bit exaggerated there, but you get it)(yes i just double parenthesized)) and i think it's beautiful too (also little children playing with people always extremely adorable pshh)

One of my favourite feelings is that brief moment after you've finished creating something, whether for yourself or someone else, and whether or not you put it out into the world or keep it for yourself, and also maybe more importantly whether it works or falls apart horribly right after you've made it nothing can take away that brief moment of ecstasy that I feel when either my hands or my mind have utilized all of the skills I've spent days or weeks or years honing all culminating in something new. It's perfect and i love it, and once you have it you always want it which is even better. =)

To me, there is no greater feeling than sitting at a table full of people you like, whilst everyone is fully engaged enjoying a meal you just made for them. There is something very basic about making people you like happy through food.

[@Snazzydragon]

Now i think about it, maybe its hard to tell people what makes you happy because it makes it easy for them to hurt you. My feelings would be hurt far more by someone saying i cooked something poorly than them calling me fat or bald or whatever

[@kirstenpaulson4112]

I get this, all of it. Right now we are working to teach our children to not make rude comments about a meal, even if they don't like it. I cook for them because I love them, and one of the biggest ways I show love is by feeding people. I think this is true of anyone who enjoys cooking. And to say to that person "I hate this thing you made for me" is like saying "I don't care about you or your efforts", and that is incredibly hurtful.

[@Enor404]

[@semicolon.advocate]

When you have a friend that you're ridiculously close to, and can *be* ridiculously close to without having to be romantic. You'd feel comfortable telling them anything, and you know that they like and appreciate you, and it feels so great to be around them because you always have so much fun and always feel so happy. Also when your dog comes up to you wanting nothing more than love, and you hug them and pet them, and their face is like "YES THANK YOU HUMAN I LOVE YOU" and the world is happy.

[@semicolon.advocate]

Ooh, and when you wake up in the morning but you can just lay there, and it's really easy to daydream because you're half-asleep, so you stay there for half an hour just fantasizing.

[@megang712]

Fresh towels out of the dryer. Decluttering a space. Removing toxic people/things (obviously not like, radioactive, but like drama and all that) from your life and the weight that lifts from your shoulders with it. Getting a *really* good hug when you really need it. When my son is struggling with something and then gets it. That moment that you can see the connection made in his little mind and he solves the problem is just so good. Basically most things involving him are the best feelings for me, though.

[@xan1455]

that refrnce you didn't get in some conversation and it sticks in some corner of the mind until you learn that thing and understand refrnce after months or years later that oooo moment is so great

[@AdamYJ]

I love the feeling of taking a fresh baked loaf of bread out of the oven. Yeah, it's because I worked on that loaf. However, there's just something about baking that feels like magic (technically, it's chemistry). Anyway, when you cook something what you start with and what you end with can look pretty similar. When you bake, you take a bunch of powders, crystals, liquids and semi-solids and end up transforming them into bread. There's nothing like it.

It's basically a braingasm! * Learning things? Delicious. Other feelings I love (all of which are pretty rare, at least for me): * Seeing a formerly bad person show concretely that he's become a better person * Great hugs that I know are sincere and heartfelt (but random hugs? meh.) * Finishing a major project (writing, drawing, whatever) and knowing I did a good job * Laughing a lot, especially with someone else * Being able to help someone with something that's really a problem for them * When physical things that weren't specifically designed to fit together (or in a space together, or whatever) fit just right * Probably lots more if I think hard enough, but that's enough for now. :-)

Finishing a research paper and being able to close all 15 tabs you had open for it. Knowing you've done something that made someone's day even just a little better. Dogs Fall Out Boy

I'm a musician, and having a performance go really well is such a great feeling. Like so great. I step off the stage feeling like I'm walking on golden clouds or something. It's so amazing, and so addictive.
