I want to talk about people who seek validation. Yes, the ones that sometimes make things uncomfortable because they always need to be validated. Well, I'll share some tips for dealing with them!

What are Validation Seekers?

If you've ever heard of people who always need to be validated, they're usually referred to as validation seekers. They often ask for opinions or praise from others to boost their confidence.

How to spot it? 

Sometimes, you can see the signs from their constant need to be appreciated or recognized. For example, they always ask, What do you think about this? or post frequently on social media to get attention.

So, how do you deal with them?

If you're dealing with validation seekers, the important thing is to stay true to yourself, friends! We don't have to always agree or praise them if it doesn't match our opinion. The important thing is that we are honest with ourselves and don't become enablers of their bad habits.

Stay True to Yourself!

Stay true to yourself and don't be influenced by the pressure to always praise or agree with others. We have to believe in our own opinions and values!

So, for those of you who have faced validation seekers, don't ever feel like it's your fault. The important thing is to stay true to yourself and not fall victim to other people's need for validation.
