I don’t understand why someone would try to act as if my compliments and statements about them [which are positive] are not true. It’s my opinion, and there is obviously a reason for me saying it. Instead of telling me not to say that stuff anymore, why not just take the compliment and let it be? Appreciate the fact that someone out there values you and is telling you just how much they do instead of shooting them down and making them…me…feel like crap.
The modest ‘Noo I’m not’ I understand, but the flat out ‘Please stop saying that’ I really don’t. I’ve realized myself that when I answer modestly towards people when they give me a compliment, they can easily get annoyed so I’ve been trying to just thank them. It’s their opinion and it’s a positive thing about myself so why not?
Anyway I just wanted to say that I gave someone a very nice and praising compliment because they are totally worth it to me, they helped my improve myself, my thoughts, my actions, my words, as well as my relationships in my life, be it with a lover, friend, family, or acquaintance. And I was told to stop…
Great, now I get to keep more stuff to myself and watch out for other people’s reactions.
