    Saying "thank you" when complimented is a skill every adult should learn. Nobody needs you to showcase your neuroses or self-esteem issues. Just say thank you and move on. It's easier. It has nothing to do with humility, and everything to do with accepting kindness gracefully.

    I do accept kindness gracefully. It has nothing to do with being neurotic. Compliments do, however, make me blush and feel awkward for a moment. I still say thank you.

    Not picking on you specifically. More of a PSA. The more you know... * * swish *

    I know. I just wanted to clarify.

    Thanks all, good to know I am not the only one who has a hard time with compliments. I will try to take the advice offered and smile and say "thank you" and not offer my negative comments in response. :-)
