How Well Do You Take Compliments?

Very well, I love being complimented.

 

As I very rarely get complimented, I feel that when it does happen, they're either taking the mickey, or just saying it. Simply put. I can't.

 

I get embarrassed and do a weird smile when someone compliments me, I go red :icon_redf :lol:

 

Very well, actually. If it's a cute guy or something, then I smile awkwardness, blush a little, and internally giggle like a schoolgirl

 

Pretty well. As someone with already high self-esteem, I feed off compliments Sure, they do make me blush sometimes, but I always thank the person and they always make me feel very good.

 

Depends on the person giving them. I have a hard time trusting anyone, and that's one of the main reasons I don't always accept compliments. BUT when I do, this is how my brain works:

Someone: You are (nice stuff) !
Me: You think so?
Someone: Yes, yes! You're also (more nice stuff) !
Me: Oh, stop it, you! <3
Someone: It's true!
Me: Aww.
Someone:
Me: ...
Someone: ...
Me: ...
Someone: ...
Me: ... You may continue with the compliments.

Hehe, basically I appreciate and agree with honest compliments from people I trust and I don't have a low self-esteem when it comes to complimenting myself x3
As for others, I give only honest opinions and compliments! ^0^

 

I find myself getting a little bashful and a little more shy then usual, my face usually gets red and I lower my head and just be all shy. I should be used to it cause my family compliments me all the time in different things and to an extent with family I am okay, but work colleagues and even customers, I still get nervous and shy with when they complimenting me.. I don't know what to say in return usually.

 

Not very well, I dont like compliments. I get all shy and will sometimes argue against the compliment.

 

was this thread inspired by me >_>

I just feel really good about them internally and have difficulty expressing that is all. My preferred way of repaying compliments is with more compliments.

 

I don't know it makes me uncomfortable sometimes , I'm now getting use to it , but I remember one time I felt bad for getting all the compliments and I started complimenting them too .
Even though I like it when women compliment me :icon_redf
a part of me feels uncomfortable because of the way I grew up , I'm so use to hearing negative things about myself from my mom and family that someone saying something good about me makes me feel as if I'm a rat being petted by a snake .

 

I have really low self - esteem, so I usually ignore the compliment and just talk about other stuff... Wow this sounds worse than I thought.

 

Meh, I always wonder what they want . When I was in jr high I used to get them a lot and it went to my head and I was a little shit . I got over myself . Way I see it is if I got hit with a hockey puck in the mouth , even with my guard in, I'd be f'ed up with no teeth ; Or if I had a bad wipe out Skating ( a buddy lost his top and bottom fronts ); If I stopped training and got big, or whatver , the compliments would stop. So I then wonder , hm, how deep are compliments then? I mean if you wanna fuck just say that. I'm inherently distrustful .

 

I reject it and think they're taking the piss

 

I acknowledge them, with a degree of modesty. Mostly I don't really value what I'm complimented on.

 

Generally I take them well, if they seem genuine ie not just someone trying to get something out of me. Sometimes can be a bit awkward though as I try to hold myself back from getting cocky about it.

 

It ignites a little glow inside of me, which at times when I'm in complete darkness, is satisfying to have a little light inside of me.

 

Not well... I assume they're saying it out of pity or lying :S

 

i try to gracious but quite frankly i'm usually shocked.

 

Compliments? What are those? I really don't take them that well at all. I just sort of blush and stand/sit there awkwardly until the other person leaves:lol:
