When we were young girls my grandma used to tell us when we got peppered with compliments on our looks and felt shy about it, "A pretty rose doesn't wilt when the sun shines on it ... so take those compliments on how pretty you look with a smile and enjoy the sunshine!" 🙆
Cute?? At MY age?? Nah, I don’t think THAT term applies to anyone after they’ve surpassed the midpoint of their lives. I just saw a story on the net about Cindy Crawford modeling in a bikini. She wasn’t “cute”, but STILL smoking hot. Me? Cute? Nah. Just average. But definitely wouldn’t fall in the “cute” category.
