It was like the perfect ego boost at the perfect time . Sometimes it's just nice to get a totally random affirmation that you've still got it!

I can relate to this completely. I have the same problems when it comes to confidence and self esteem. But I always feel a little better when I go into my local HMV. There's a (slightly) older guy who works behind the counter who everybody I know believes has a crush on me. He always smiles when I come to his register and he brings out things from the store room for me to have first look at when they're not even supposed to be on the shelf yet. He's just generally a really sweet man I've noticed he's a bit arsey with other customers so it makes me feel special.
