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.

I saw an ex pupil in the supermarket. He came and said hello. We spoke for a few minutes then asked after another of his old teachers. His gf came around the corner and he introduced us and told her Mrs R and Mrs D were always very kind to me in school and always helped me.
That was lovely he remembered us that way.

1969 in Denver. I was in the USAF. I was in uniform. An elderly gentleman wearing a beret stopped me. He spoke in English with a French accent, asked to shake my hand. I obliged . Then he said how grateful he was to the Americans in the military because the Americans liberated his home country of France from the Nazis. I’ve always held that close. My dad served in France, (Metz) Patton’s 3rd Army, 5th infantry division aka the Red Diamond.
The meeting meant and still does much to me.

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.

Back in school, we had this poll where we had to write down the names of the person we liked most and the person we disliked most. And the reasons for it. And submit the anonymous slips. One girl - happened to be the most gorgeous and sought after - complained that she couldnt name any for dislike most.

When the poll results came, one of the slips that had me as liked most - with quite flattering compliments - was blank on the hate most name.

Made my day and my year 😀😀. My best compliment ever. 😚🥰

My supervisor at Bed Bath and Beyond Corporate was an extremely funny person, usually. But one day, I walked in, smiling as I always did, and she told me that my smile brightened up the whole place, and that she looked forward to seeing me walk in every day, like some sort of angel spreading my light. And then she said, "I'm not even JOKING!" 😊😊😊

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 at my 50th high school reunion last June. A classmate came up to me and said that i was always nice to her and never bullied her like others had. that meant the world to me and that is how i want to be remembered

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

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!

A friend here has said that I have restored her hope that decent men do exist, that means a lot to me.

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 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.

I don't get compliments. People tell me I'm interesting and I look young.

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.

When I gaze into your eyes, they're so calm and remind me of the ocean, with colors that shift and change, reflecting the warmth of the sun and the gentle drift of clouds.
She was always so poetic about everything 😊

"You haven't changed a bit!" – I was really upset when someone said that.

I got asked for I.D. buying alcohol at age 33 😄

When my kid tells me , you´re the best mom 🤗

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

One girl said she wants to be like me and I was laughing 🤣 I said no you don't

One time i had a guy tell me that i was "insanely beautiful".

Someone told me he thought I was a teenager, and I was in my 30s.

Someone once told me that I taste delicious. 🥰

Before my boyfriend to be asked me out for our first date he told me I had the best legs on the planet.I was at work with my bare feet up on my desk.

"where were u all my life?"

I don't like compliments... 🤣

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 don't know, I must have forgotten it.

I can't remember.

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

Care is better than compliment

There have been so many! Too many to remember them all!

"When you opened your eyes, it looked like when you turn on the gas stove in a dark room."

Former football coach: Meanest man pound for pound I ever coached

"I never knew I could have more than one orgasm at a time."

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!”

Someone once told me I looked like will smith 😂 boy were they wrong
