What's the nicest compliment you guys have ever received from a complete stranger?

Or someone who you don't know very well.

Something that floored you, struck you.

Made you sit back and think on it.

Not just brush it off.

Personally, I had all kinds of guys messaging me, or trying to their best to talk to me while I was working, I ignored them, I wasn't mean, but still, they wanted something I wasn't willing to give.

Literally only 1 comment stood out and floored me.

"You have the most raw, natural beauty I've ever seen"

This took me completely by surprise because:

A. His extremely refined wording.

B. Someone took the time to notice that I am anti makeup, instead of seeing a pretty face and moving on to oogle the body.

No, I didn't give in to it. We didn't start anything romantic.

But the compliment still struck me.

Your turn ?

Once a guy went up to my bf (this was when we were in a weird ass position and we weren't technically together yet) and asked "is that your girl?" My bf looked at me then him and said "uhh why?" And the guy said "she's beautiful. Take care of her man." And my bf said thanks and started talking to him about something. I couldn't hear. I just thought it was funny that he went to him instead of me ? I was flattered

"Sexy nostrils"

"You smell very nice...like fried potatoes"

"I like your hair, it looks like....like....like cotton!"

I was like, "what?what? Whaaaaaat?" — I'll be back if I think of some more.
Heeeeey. Don't feel like that!

My sister once told me I "smell like.. Ooooh yeaaaah".

My first assumption?

I smell like koolaid or the damn koolaid man.

But how would she know how he smelled? —?

At least he wasn't afraid to tell your bf —

Several months ago before me and Jed got intimate for the first time, a middle-aged woman kept staring at us and smiling as we were goofing around (aka me entertaining him and him laughing his ass off). When we got closer to her, she said "you're a really beautiful couple". Jed laughed good-naturedly but I blushed & mildly sulked and had to correct her, that we're not a couple at all.

She said that she was newly into the acceptance phase, her kid had recently come out to her. She was still trying to wrap her head around it but the idea didn't repulse her.

One time I went with my grandparents to Kay Jewelers and the lady that was helping us asked my grandparents if I was their daughter when I went off to the bathroom, and they said no our granddaughter. And then she told my grandma "Oh she seems like a good girl I can tell. She seems sweet." Something like that, I cant remember the exact words. But my grandparents told me she said that. I really take that as a compliment, especially because I dont get compliments from strangers often. People say that about me often and Im kinda suprised because I feel like I am too shy at times and I dont seem very expressive so I feel like I come off mean or stuck up but I guess I dont which suprises me. I sometimes feel a bit pressured because you know, Im not perfect and I definitely get upset, angry, and have bad sides to me, but if I come off as genuinely kind I take that as a really good thing. Just sometimes people overreact when I do get upset or angry because for some reason they dont expect that of me—? Trust me I get into many arguments online I can't stay kind to everyone if theyre mean ya know. But yeah that's pretty much all.

Oh also I was told once by some lady and also my dentist have told me that my eyes are pretty (: it's the makeup and falsies cause my eyes are just brown so Im kinda cheating lol but whatever I'll still take it

You are sweet ?

A few years back at the fast food job I had there was a customer who told me to "keep that smile on your face and being friendly and you'll get far".

It made me feel so good to hear it because although I know I'm usually a friendly, happy person...it sometimes feels like people think I'm just really annoying and that I don't take things seriously. Not the case. I just get awkward and distant when shit gets too heavy.

It was just a nice pat on the back and it's something that even 5 yrs (or so, can't quite rememeber the exact momth/year) later I still think back on and smile about 🙂

The one that stands out most came from a guy (don't even know his name).. He was kind of banging my friend and I was hanging out with her one night and he came over, they were drinking and I was chauffeuring them around, he kept telling me all night what a respectable person I was.. telling me how much he appreciated my sense of style (classy but not slutty / more reserved) and my personality / morals. I had to keep confiscating drugs from him as he had never tried them before and was asking my opinion on if he should take them and I told him it wasn't a good idea since he was already drunk and it was his first time.. My friend had to hide them but he kept finding them and I had to keep taking them away from him. But he kept thanking me for looking out for him and having a good head on my shoulders. I have never received so many compliments about my character, especially not from a complete stranger. He was an Aries.. Like how I remembered his sign but not his name.. LOL
The fact that you repeatedly looked out for someone you barely knew says a lot about your character ❤

When I first started my new job a guy who barely knew me who intimidated everyone else said to me

'Elly, I'm 100% certain that there is nothing out of your reach, nothing you're afraid of or can't do.'

I don't remember why he said that but it was on a day where I felt so small and been having a rough go of it. I felt insecure and pathetic. And he said it with a sense of awe, not sympathy. It made me realize that even though I feel small inside a lot I keep working. It was really encouraging.

Another one is when I told my father about my plans to move, in the midst of a lot of personal failures and struggles in my life. I was hesitant to tell him because I was expecting him to tell me it was a bad idea and lecture me about having not thought anything through. My father is rarely optimistic. Instead he said

'I'm proud. If I were in your position in life, I know I wouldn't be able to accomplish half of what you have let alone be working so hard to accomplish more. What I'm saying is, you're stronger than me.'

I quietly thanked him and rushed away to happy cry to myself lmao. One of two times my dad said he was proud of me.
Usually, the strongest people are not the ones who realize they are strong.

Easy...went to grocery store. This guy tells me, "I like your hair"

Went to club last month. This guy comes up to me, "I know I'm short, but you're a good dancer, will you dance with me?" "You bet!" I said. Chaplain at work (I work for the Army) stops by my office, "I am married, with all the sexual harassment classes we attend, I don't want you to get this the wrong way, but you dress very professionally, your shoes always match your outfit."

See the "pattern?" (guys!) 😆

🤗 cyber hugs!

Love,

Eva

Recently i had : " You are a Queen of Saba " ( It's Sheba in english right ? I'm not sure ) i still don't know what he meant by that

" You are unaware of how beautiful you are "


Wow

That's beautiful
Indeed, it's always flattering to hear this kind of things but the best thing that i've heard was a couple of months ago and that was " you have a passionate heart " this one means a lot to me

But anyways i wanted to ask you, why are you anti makeup ?

That is a nice one.

And because I prefer to be completely natural.

Actually! The most flattered I've *ever* felt was when I was out salsa dancing with my gay friends and this one woman was staring at me and ran up to me and was all like "I've been watching you all night! you're so sexy!!!" she was hot and looked like j lo and I looked like literal trash because I thought we were going to a college bar. I was so shocked, but it just made my month lol.

I'm not such a bad guy. I'm really nice once you get to know me. I honestly hate to hurt people as I try my best to be very careful not to say anything to offend no one. I like to keep conversations light and breezy. so in conclusion, I'm just a gentle kindhearted big man with a big monstrous appetite that'll have me eating under your feet as an end result 😛.

the only nice compliment I can think of people giving me is I'm a sweetheart. sometimes I wish I wasn't such a sweet guy.

You have strong Taurus or Pisces don't you?

Maybe Libra, but I'm iffy on Libra.

A woman told me I had beautiful eyes. My eyes are regular brown so I didn't see it, but she said my eyes were very kind and caring and she loved it and thought it was beautiful.
Even brown eyes can hold much depth. ❤

Mine are brown too.

And my eyes are very often the first thing people notice.


So true brown eyes can hold beauty, I was just so surprised to hear that and it caught me off guard. The girl that told me that wasn't America though, she was a girl I met in Japan and they seemed more genuine there and less superficial. Over here, I get compliments about my arms, shoulders, or butt -_-

I believe you made a post on my thread on the ascendant forum once. I can't remember the title. I knew right from the jump you were a Scorpio rising. are you Scorpio risings loners too? And by loners I mean like there are times you'd much rather not socialize or not in the mood to talk to nobody or even see a human face and be to yourself sometimes.

click to expand

I don't remember it either. ??

And yes. Very much so. Especially with my Pisces moon. I just want music. Or a book.

Edit:

Found it. Page 5 I believe.
