I used to not believe them, but they don't stop now, so I do. I won't assume all those strangers were just liars

People use compliments to get things from you though

@Adelh91: Except I evidently had nothing to give

@Feature: not always materialistic wants, sometimes emotional. They don't cost a thing

@Adelh91: Wow, you're bitter. Should I assume no matter what that a compliment isn't genuine then? A stranger calling me beautiful with no response and nothing in return from me must be for their emotional benefit 🙃
Nope. I'm gonna take it. I know it's true anyway. Even if it were someone who kept talking and tried to pick me up, that's still a compliment on me.

@Feature: ok I don't know what you're talking about any more. I have had a lot of experience with people who throw compliments around in hopes to get them in return etc. Whatever though

Those people sound disgusting. I don't allow those shallow, fake types in my life
