Hell no!😨

I assume that either it's some kind of code for [i]"you have a smear of something unmentionable on your face,"[/i] or that they're seriously unhinged!😖 Or maybe they've just lost their glasses ...😉😂😓

so should we rather just say bad things and what we can see is wrong with you ....would it make you feel better

Nettle · F

Um, no ...😒

Can't you just talk to people normally? Does a conversation about the right type of primer for gloss paint, or the weather, or which is the quickest route to Rome, [i]really[/i] need to involve any kind of compliment??🤔

@elspeth: precisely. I am kind of distrustful of people who use compliments a lot

@Adelh91: Thanks for best answer😊

It's a shame so many of us feel so distrustful of compliments... SOME are genuine, but unfortunately, we didn't get this cynical without good reason😓
