Answer 1

Just this A.M. when I dropped my son off at school, I told him how proud of him I am. God bless*

Answer 2

I always do.
The last one I paid to someone was two days ago. I was in town and this lady had the most beautiful hair, so I told her. She was in her mid fifties, and I could tell she was having a bad day- she had lots of bags and looked tired. However, her hair was gorgeous and I just had to tell her.
I think it's nice to hear something like that, it really lifts you. For example, I bought a poppy from an elderly war veteran. He told me I had the most dazzling smile and I was walking on air all day. I think more people should spread some goodness, and make a difference to someone else's day. You may not be able to change someone's life for the better, but a smile or a compliment can work wonders.

Answer 3

The last time I can remember was about a week ago (maybe more) when I ran into an old friend when I was out with my mates. She was a very big girl the last time I saw her and she had lost about 5 stone and looked really well, the first thing i said was she looked fantastic. That was the last time I paid anyone a genuine compliment that I think was appreciated.

Answer 4

A man I know had in the last six months put on a great deal of weight and it made him look awful, when I saw him yesterday he had lost it all and was back to his normal healthy weight. I told him he looked fabulous and he did. He was thrilled with the compliment.

Answer 5

Simply say "Thank You". I think it is showing respect to the person giving the compliment instead of "Countering" or undermining their compliment with "Hmmm..Nahh" or "I don't" It's almost an insult if you think about it. I would not continue to compliment someone if they countered with negative or opposing comments. It would tell me they feel my perspective or opinion is really not important or that it is inept in some way.

Answer 6

Gave a genuine compliment to my co-worker yesterday. She's still gushing about it today.....lol. And I give genuined compliments literally everyday to my hubby and to both my children. Keeps them happy.

Answer 7

Yesterday and I quote

'With your clearly discernible charm and striking good looks'

Isnt that lovely, I was like Oooooo more more .......

Sorry that was me getting a compliment . Hmm I said she had beautiful brown eyes and a lovely smile in return. And she really does. She is soooo cute ( beautiful )

Answer 8

I guess i do that every morning and its the best feeling i get because i do it out of sincerity. Can i compliment you?
You've got a good personality, though i hardly know you guess you will take it.

Answer 9

this morning actually,,on the bus,,there is a woman who has had severe hair loss for years and for the past 3 days has worn a wig,,i thought it might be nice to tell her how good it looked because it did but at the time i didnt know how she would take it,,i figured this morning,,it is something nice and i just 'hope' she sees that so i said,,,"i like the hair,,it suits you!" she said thanks and sat down,,i did notice her swishing a little while later and hoped i had not said anything untoward,,i suppose il see next week whether she talks to me at the bus stop,,,,or not,,,

Answer 10

I give my girlfriend a genuine compliment each day and it makes her feel so special

Answer 11

I saw someone yesterday I used to work with and they'd lost quite a bit of weight so I said they were looking trim. He looked pleased that someone had noticed.
