What's a compliment you'll never forget?

A friend’s husband (they were much older than me) had lost his son to suicide. One night her hubs and I were outside having a beer and he told me he wished his son had met me. He said if his son had known me, he would have seen hope and not taken his life.
@Pinkstarburst Wow. That’s very poignant.

I had a stranger tell me i looked 23 while I'm really late 30s ha. They made me feel good, they had a good energy around them that made me feel calm.

A compliment I'll never forget is when I went into town and didn't check my appearance first. I was wearing a white shirt with no bra. I had to go inside the store to pick up some food. I'm standing in line and man next me tells me what a beautiful shirt it is I'm wearing. I smiled and looked down realizing then that it was a plain white shirt but all the shape, outline, and shadow was very apparent. It was harmless enough of a typical wondering eye male compliment, but since I'd recently been physically attacked by a guy who had some serious intentions, I ended up having to bolt out of the store from a surprise panic attack. This probably isn't the answer that was expected, but I really won't ever forget that compliment.

I have always had some issues with how I perceive myself and wondering how others see me so because of this some compliments stick to my mind as if I had found some important clue to understand myself. here are a few that I will always remember:
" you should be given an honorary PHD in customer service"
" the funny thing about you is that you are so charismatic and you're completely unaware of it"
(about me) " there is no limit to how much I trust this guy, you can trust him with anything"

A few weeks ago, a young lady told me that something I said a few years ago caused her to change her life from the downward spiral she was experiencing. I don't know what I said, but I'm glad it helped her.

I was walking into a store and a lady was walking out and she said you are beautiful! It caught me by surprise, it made my day i replied thank you so are you!

One day when I particularly wasn’t feeling my prettiest I was walking through the grocery store and this man stopped me and told me I was gorgeous 🥹 I’ll never forget that

In high school, my football coach said he wished his sons would grow up to be like me. He was more of a father figure than my own father, so those words really meant a lot

When I was 12 or 13 a friend of mine told me her 16 year old brother thought I was pretty. I walked on air the rest of the day. When you're 13 a 16 year old boy thinking you're pretty is huge!
I don't get compliments. People tell me I'm interesting and I look young.
when i was at a bar in my mid 40s and a couple of young ones in their 20s approached me. (a male and a female) the guy says to me that they are playing truth or dare so he dared his female friend that she has to pick out one guy in the bar she would most like to sleep with and that was me. then she scurried away all embarrassed.....then he tells me unfortunately thats not gonna happen as she's engaged. i was still tickled pink though 😊
Idk but when someone said "because i really value your opinion. I really do" i felt like i could die happy that night.
People always tell me i have nice hair.. even total strangers in the store

Also when i was a teenager Caleb told me i was nice.. the nicest person in the world.. i was pushing him on the swings.. i adored him.. but that was before i suddenly turned crazy mean and disappointed everyone 😒

A boss told me I looked like a "benign Charles Manson." I said I didn't appreciate the "benign" part of that.

Compliments on my eye color, since that's the only thing I've ever truly liked about myself.

One time i had a guy tell me that i was "insanely beautiful".
From my homecoming date when I was 17: “I can count the number of dates I’ve had on one hand, and this one is definitely the middle finger.”

I can't remember.
When the art critic at the local newspaper liked the painting I was working on during a workshop following a multi-site art exhibition tour during an annual arts festival in my city
There have been so many! Too many to remember them all!

Someone told me there's a fire inside me, dying to rage out of control.

Care is better than compliment

Probably when I was about eleven years old and walking down the street. The car full of teenage girls went driving by and one of them yelled out “Hey, nice ass!”
