"They are welcome when they are genuine and motivated by kindness x" So this is about the "Giver" of compliments that matters - I understand. What about the type of compliment e.g. looks, ability to listen... whatever? | |||

The flippant answer is "I'll take whatever i can get sweetheart" The considered on is that I whilst physicsl compliments are lovely, the ones that make me feel warm and fuzzy are the personal ones x" Awww, that is really sweet x | |||

I think if someone compliments you on a physical or personality trait where you lack confidence this has more impact, but you may also be more likely to doubt the sincerity. Messed up, no ?! | |||

"If they are sincere and with no hidden agenda I guess they’re always welcome, whatever they’re about ? " I agree with you. I guess I was thinking about the sort of thing we are aware of ourselves, for example if I think I have beautiful hair or teeth, and somebody compliments me than that is a reinforcement of my confidence whereas if I dislike my hair because it is naturally curly and somebody says "what lovely curls" that provokes a different response ? | |||

"Been thinking about this on and off today. We give compliments for a myriad of reasons. Do we do it because we hope to get them back in return? And do we focus on giving looks based ones to females and ones od strength to makes? And if so is that a bit lazy are they really genuine. Sorry that's more questions than your OP. It's just been on my mind today " Some of us are just full of shit. I wouldn't waste too much time thinking about it | |||

Somebody was complimentary about something I personally thought nothing of, so it was kind of a moment of "Oh, I did nt realise that I am XYZ and it was nice, especially as it came out of the blue and seemed sincere. | |||

"If I get complimented on my eyes, hair and tits then I take it because those are my favourite things about me I rarely pay heed otherwise in the Fab world Outside of it compliments from those I care about are important as they are the ones who's opinions matter I love it when my youngest son compliments me; he rarely has much to say but he will notice if I've had my hair done or dress up for an evening out, and always comments on my dress. He hates it but I always take him clothes shopping with me because he is honest, not afraid to tell me if something looks bad. " Awww, that is so cute re your son. I remember as children mine were complimentary in such a unique, innocent and genuine way for example, they d "Mum, your eyes are like stars and they really sparkle" Thinking back... I think they were the best compliments | |||

"I much prefer indirect compliments.. like if someone males me feel like they are interested in me. That's probably how I give a compliment too...with my time and interest. The rest is just fluff " It’s not fluff if it makes people feel good. | |||
