Please don't respond with vague terms like "good" and "kind" and "considerate" and "generous". What specifically do you do or give them that they should value?

For integrity, loyalty, and a kind heart. If I earn someone's friendship that in itself is a gift that I treasure and want to hold on to. I still have very dear friends from both elementary and high school because they value these traits in me. They know that my integrity speaks for itself, that my loyalty is undying (I am there for them anytime - day or night), and that I am kind and loving ... always.
I have been told by my friends that they value these things in me and that is worth more to me than anything else. We are nothing without the people in our lives who love and cherish us and I hope that those people in MY life will value these specific things about me without hesitation.
Christmas peace to you ...

How I will jump to the defense of my family and friends with a vengeance to protect their well being. Examples: When someone is attacking them verbally, whether here or in real life; seeking to "use" them for some sick game of theirs; or intentionally attempting to cause them mental distress and emotional hurt...
I come out like an enraged lion, most of the time without thinking first or even regard to any repercussions of how it will affect me. But that was how I was raised by my parents and what was ingrained into my psyche during my military career.
You always protect the ones you love, your family, friends and your brothers (and sisters) in arms beside you while on deployment or even in a combat situation and that is one of the core principles I live my life by.
Even if that means sacrificing yourself or your own morals.
You do what has to be done to protect those that you love, those that you care about, and those you serve with!
Thanks for the question and the opportunity to answer!

Good Question.
I'm a superb single mother and caregiver. I do everything I can for my daughter to keep her happy and healthy. I give up alot for myself to do that.
But, I wasn't always single. Her father left us 2 years ago for someone else. Cancelled our bank account. I had nothing. But, I picked myself up and started over. And now her and I are the happiest people ever.
I value my daughter for being the best toddler and caring about me.
Value goes both ways.
Happy Holidays:)

Well, I would think that you would choose those things that you value in others also (if I'm understanding your question correctly) **Lots of holiday parties going on around here...........as in those things you would like to receive from others, or appreciate about others.....
So I would go with:
The ability to be honest, even brutal honesty, the kind you sometimes don't necessarily like hearing, but need to hear. (IE) Constructive criticism.
Intelligence, and the ability to articulate and share intelligence without being pompous.
Creativity.
Loyalty, true loyalty, not just to individuals, but to issues you believe in, and your ability to demonstrate that, and follow through with it.
OPEN MINDEDNESS! Willingness to learn new things, hear new ideas, and really contemplate them. **Tough one at times.
and my #1 The effort made to love others without conditions or expectations. The striving to love UNCONDITIONALLY!
Those are things I strive to do,
but I DON"T necessarily think I should be valued for them, although it's a nice idea........it would kind of knock my #1. out of the ball park!
Peace,
Belle
MMmmm I forgot to throw in goofball humor!

I think people 'should' (and many do) value me because I am a 'natural teacher'. I don't mean to be, but I find myself explaining what I'm doing and why I'm doing it this way. Not only am I always open to questions, but I am also open to suggestions. I use tact, examples of my own mistakes, and never say, "You should...". I simply do, and find people following my influence or asking for my help.

Value me for going out of my way to make others' lives easier. I babysit my friend's 2 yr old for free, I work for my mom's cleaning business for free, and I am currently taking care of a friend's house/cat/job while she is in jail.
I am the gift that keeps on giving!!

My husband should value me because without me there would be no food in cupboards, no clean ironed clothes in the wardrobes, the house would be a mess the kids would be dirty and the car would be a skip with wheels

LOYALTY! I will take it to the wall for my friends! And, I have done.
Addtionally, I give them me. I am one of a kind. There is no one else, has never been anyone else, nor will there ever be anyone else like me! As is true for each of us.... }:>

They should value me for me. My personality and the way I act. They should take pride in themselves if I open up to them, because its hard for me to do so. This guy says Im shy, but I just have nothing to say, and he doest start the conversation. He should value me for talking to him when i do, because its not easy to let him inside. I valure that he hangs out with me, and wants to be friends,
(even if i want more). Hes pretty nice and honest about me. I value that hes not afraid to tell me when Im acting weird.
