Nail Euphoria
Hey Everyone, I'm a straight-ish male that has recently started painting my nails over the last year. First with my toes in the upmost private setting and now expanded to my fingernails in all places public and at work.
I don't know if it extends from a life time of a desire to express myself in ways the general population would consider feminine/only for women and not bring able to, but I've been feeling an almost overwhelming sense of euphoria and joy from being able to paint my nails now that I've started. I feel like like I'm almost constantly being drawn to shiny new polishes to a point where it's borderline obsessive. I kind of want to try them all. Getting compliments on my nails has also been a life changing experience in itself, coming from a world where no one compliments anyone about anything.
I've lurked in this community for awhile so I know I'm not the only person who has had these feelings but wanted to reach out to hear other's experiences. Partially so I can convince myself I'm not crazy but also because I genuinely want to hear other people's stories!
Thanks!
