Is there difference between I've been and I was? And if there's difference then what is it? For example, I've been feeling so proud and I was feeling so proud.
i was is used for storytelling/talking about a specific time in the past (past continuous), while i've been is used to talk about an action that happened in the past and is continuing until the present moment (present perfect continuous) or, it could also be that it happened in the past and continued until the present moment
