[quote=Anonymous]I feel like "I appreciate you" is a lazy way of saying " I really appreciate what you have done for me" ... Else an incredibly condescending way of saying the equivalent of "I deem you worthy" either way, it sounds so pretentious. I don't need my existence validated for simple holding a door open... But if you appreciate something I did or gave you, a simple"Thank you" or "It's greatly appreciated" works. I just don't feel that a simple gesture or act needs my entire being to be appreciated. If I were being recognized for some lifetime achievement, maybe that might warrant me being appreciated as a person ... But the casual way this phrase gets used kinda cheapens the meaning.[/quote]
