    One of my neighbors hadn't seen me for about three months and I had been on MFP for about three months, he saw me outside cleaning up the carport area. He stopped, did a double take and said, "Wow! You look great! You have really trimmed down!" The guy is straight as an arrow and I know he wasn't hitting on me. It was a genuine compliment and really made my weekend.

    This may or may not be a good thing. I hope they weren't a Francis Bacon fan.

    :laugh: I hope not haha

    I was in bed with my friend a few years ago, haven't just woken up feeling like hell and he comes out with "Your more beautiful without makeup than more girls with it." It was very sweet and it's stuck with me to this day.

    I... think this was a compliment. It sticks with me because... I just don't... know.

    I used to play bass in a band. We were getting ready for a gig once and this older lady was in the pub. She was asking about the band and said to me, "You must be the singer. You have a bluesy face."

    Me three! LOL!

    But there are two that stand out. One was after i hadn't seen a guy for several months. (In that time I'd lost 40lbs) I stood there waiting for him to acknowledge me for a bit... and when he finally spoke he yelled, "Holy ****!!" and later his wife said he had no idea who this young woman was that was waiting for him to say something...

    And my son, about 6 months ago, said to me, "Mom you're really smart." I loved that.

    Costume contest at QxT's *dive bar/ goth club*
    Wearing a full body chicken costume,a woman who obviously had one too many absinthe pops pulls me by my plumage and says "you look strangely attractive to me right now chicken man" I ran away :-/

    In middle school a scary chick pinched my butt and told me I smelled good.. I also ran away

    Why can't I just get a compliment without all the awkwardness

    Someone told me I smile with my eyes

    Someone told me when I was bragging about my sons accomplishments that I should be more proud of myself, that my son has done all that considering Im a single mom who raised him alone.

    A complete stranger walked up to me and said your smile lights up the whole room and walked off.

    I definitely see that!!

    Mine would have to be from my son when he was about 3 years old. He said to me that when he grows up he wants to marry me because I am the most beautiful mom he ever met. Kids are amazing, and they really know how to tug at the heart strings :heart:

    "You make me feel good about myself." Not a compliment about my looks, but it is one of my favorite ones.

    OH MY GOD THE ARCHEANGELS ARE COMING

    Back story: A good friend, Gabriel and I, were walking down the 16th st mall during Cinco de Mayo 2003 when we were approached by a homeless man who was looking pretty rough.. We both gave him a few sheckles and bought him a couple of tacos from a stand. When we had finished dining the man asked our names, Gabriel kinda gave a half wave towards me and said. "He's Michael Seth, I'm Gabriel." At which point said homeless man got all boogley eyed and took off like all the forces of hell where on his heels, screaming those words down the street.. over and over and over again.

    Someone told me quite recently that I looked like a personal trainer! So far from the truth; however, kept me smiling for days!

    Your confidence shows in all you do.

    It is really nice to have that and for it to be noticed
