It's pretty much a thankless job 80% of the time - which is why I have to take my joy from the act of creating something and NOT from the approval and appreciation of my players. It's sad that it has to be like this, but it's always been this way - at least in my experience.
After some of my sessions, a couple of players will say "thanks! That was fun!" It's always the same ones.
I'm not sure if they're being polite or if they're legit enjoying it. I try to believe the latter.
I mean, they do keep coming back.
Though in my case, I run a game for a few family members. They have to come back!
