Depends on the context and what they're complimenting. If I'm at the gym and throw up a nice snatch and random gym stranger says, "hey...nice one"...that's all good. If I'm just walking down the street and some rando says, "hey...nice shirt" or something like that, I probably would think..."ok, thanks random weirdo."0

It doesn't happen very often but, when it does, I just say Thank You.0

First reaction is to blush. Doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman giving the compliment.
Then I say Thank You.0 -
i look behind me to see who they are talking to0

If it isn't creepy, I smile and say "Thank you, have a wonderful day."
If it's something creepy, I ignore it and move on with my life.0 -
By asking what his ulterior motive is, and running away... hoping he doesn't follow me.0

Still waiting on that luxury.0

I love a compliment, and I would try to find something nice to say back. Unless it was a creepy compliment...then I would run away0

This on the inside, and maybe the outside, and say 'thank you'.0 -
I like it. I'm one of those who randomly do it.0

I have only got "Excuse me for staring, you're beautiful" I was so shocked/scared/perplexed, that all I said was "ok" and turned down a different isle. I didn't really take that as a compliment.0

I get them from both sexes and it surprises every time. So when a stranger comes up to me and compliments me I just smile and say thank you.0

Individually from someone I have no problem, but if someone mentions in a group setting, then I'm a little embarrassed. My boss decided to mention my weight loss to everyone in a meeting. Everyone was clapping, but I didn't like the attention because I'm not at my goal weight. When I hit my goal then I will accept all the applaud0

I like it and I say "thank you."0

I get shy but say thank you and quickly leave LOL0

I smile and say, "Thank you." If there's something about them I find appealing (appearance, nails, clothes, hair, etc) I return the compliment. If not, then I just thank them and move on...0
