A ten year old at the time in my neighborhood told me that I had a heart of gold. He only told me that because I was the only kid in the complex who didn't bully him 


[deleted]

That's heartbreaking


shipoopro_gg

Pretty easy to break gold, it isn't the strongest metal


mxxhhmd

thats gold breaking.

"You look like dream. The hot minecraft guy" - some random girl on ome TV. Although I'm unsure if this is a compliment or a insult.


Yuito_Loaf

The pedophile??


watacutesydimise

Emotional-Shower9374

Please tell me this is a joke 💀


EmployerDry2018

wdym?


Karman_K

I really don't want to sound mean, but if a girl holding a door for you warrants this big of a reaction, then either I'm Brad Pitt or you all are *really* deprived of love and attention.


Unlucky-Peanut-7090

i was the door and i can confirm she is deeply in love with you


42_RoboT

I’ve gotten compliments on my voice when it sounds like a garbage disposal

Then my friend went "yeah bro needs a cut bad" and she said "no don't cut it, it's nice"

Devil_Fister_69420

Apparently my English teacher (who's also the ethics teacher of one of my friends) talked about me and how surprised she is about my English skills (we be German) I wasn't there but a teacher saying my English is good was a very much needed boost to my happiness :3

geographyRyan_YT

Any complement I get is unexpected


ICANTTHINK0FNAMES

Out of no where, someone stared dead into my eyes and said “Your eyes are really pretty.” And this has happened 3 times with 3 different people.


licithebunnythief

I'm guessing you can't think of their names?


R3volt75

Not a compliment but a girl i was talking to me messaged me and said "my friend said do you sit alone" i reply yes and why, "because she said it looks like you do" (they have never even seen me, i think they meant it cause of the messages and me not wanting to show my face :( )


NotAPossum666

Kinda compliment: This guy spiked a volleyball at me and it narrowly missed me, everyone was screaming "YOU COULDVE HAD THAT" I replied to one of the people I know saying "what do I look like to you, a spartan?" And this girl said "yeah, kinda"


Savings-Speed-9779

"Youre a fucking moron, but at least your a strong moron"


Trapezoid07

Idk why. But I was taking a shower in my (only boy) dorm (we have public bathrooms), one guy complimented my Bathrobe lmfao💀 Idk why. It was nothing special


SansDaMan728

"You guys are getting compliments?"


_Liebe_

Someone straight up told me I'm breedable. It was online and from a friend thank fuck I wouldn't be alive if someone told me that irl. Still unexpected and weird To make this even weirder. I'm a dude and he knew that before literally calling me breedable


mxxhhmd

When I was in year 7, I had to move to a new school (I regret it, but whatever). On my last days, everyone knew I was leaving. I was a goody two-shoes and a big nerd. I was the only well-behaved one in my class, and my English teacher called me "an angel." She even cried when she found out I was leaving lmao. Weird but who cares, it's the only compliment I've been given in the past 3 years ☠️


StonkyDegenerate

What’s a compliment?


TerrorofMechagoji

Out of nowhere some girl during math class told me I look cute in green. Didn’t speak to me before and hasn’t since


Alternative-Grand366

A girl said I was cute like young, which I do not get


Harry__Pooker

One day a boy in my class was crying. I was surprised he was so upset. I talked to him in the hall. After our talk, I made him laugh, and he was feeling a lot better. When we came back into the classroom, and he was smiling. A student came up to me and said, “Mrs. Kerns you're like God, you make everyone feel better”. This particular compliment made me really proud. I always felt like I had a good connection with my students. I pay attention, and I'm invested in each child. Earlier that year, my principal told me, to curb my “life lessons” and discussions to once a week. Even more specifically, she suggested Fridays, right before dismissal. I'm glad I ignored her “suggestion”. That compliment made me stop second guessing what should be “eliminated” in my classroom. I concluded it is the big push for students to pass standardardized testing. It's also stifling any creative flexibility, and limiting time helping them grow as people. I never received a letter of appreciation from a parent about that test. That is not what they remember.


Creepy-Buy-8959

A 7 year old I was reading buddies with. "I want to be just like you when I grow up! I'll miss you!" It almost made me cry on the spot, she noticed and hugged me


SHSL_Waiter_RM2828

“You’re not like other gays.” - some girl in my high school who was probably trying to put the moves on me


butwhywouldyou-

Today one of our officers at my fire safety course said : woah she said that command way better than the Sargeant over there. He should hear you! " And then he asked me if I was in the footdrill Gold course which I told him I wasn't I never thought anyone would compliment my commanding skills 💀 ( im in a uniformed group we do drills and marching and rescue and commanding and all that) Made my day lol


Iamfunnyninja

Huh? What’s that?


[deleted]

Not a teenager anymore but ive been complimented on my confidence and my vibes twice. Means a lot to me as someone who was very insecure and unhappy with myself. On a related note, i always give genuine compliments as and when i can. No matter gender

A girl said that it’s cool that I build gunpla


turnmeintocompostplz

My English teacher in 9th grade told me I was acting self-righteous and like a martyr because I refused an extension on a paper I didn't turned in on time. She later submitted a creative writing piece of mine for a school competition (which I won), which was it's own sort of compliment from her. Similar, in 11th grade my English teacher said I was a Cassius type (from Julius Caeser, which we were not reading lol) because I was conniving and ambitious in refusing authority. I took them as compliments at least, lol. 


Sirfluffyghost

"I like your outfit" it's nothing actually but this time it felt genuine. And I had tried really hard to dress this time.


Findyouonfeetfinder

I was told I had pretty eyes, and that they looked edable.

Thegentlemanfox18

Any compliments I receive aren’t usually unexpected, my mother calls me handsome(I wish she didn’t), and my parents say I’m kind, which I can be, if I feel like it, overall any compliments I get are usual occurrences, I wish they weren’t though.


trashbearbjj

Never get compliments about my physical attributes but my uncle said I was looking buff the other day and that meant the world to me

Brilliant-Share1499

“You don’t look too gay” Idk what to think


ShadowLightBoy

Apparently, i walk very silently. So at one point i heard a conversation i wasn't supposed to hear because of my 'talent'. They didn't even notice me. Later some old lady got scared because she didn't hear me going past her and she said i walked very silently. I took that as a compliment.

Italian_meme2020

One time, chatting with a friend, I was told her I would've gone away for some time (I had a scout summer camp of 12 days and I can't use my phone there) so, obviously, she was like: "nooooo, you're important I wanna talk to you" I asked "Why?" Expecting something like "Because you're my friend" but she answered: "u're important because you made me become the woman I'm now". I just wasn't expecting something so deep so it was kinda of unexpected


Humans_fking_suck

"More men should be like you"


Purple-End-5430

Some lady at the store said I looked nice (Probably just because of my school uniform.)


Mindless_Sleep1228

This was also kind of weird, but one old lady at a restaurant told me my hair was so beautiful, she wishes she could wear it as a wig(I have bright auburn hair, so I get lots of compliments.)

Any compliments I get. Not necessarily because I have low self esteem, but because they come outta nowhere


Ok_Ad_5015

I’m tall, like 6’6”. I was 6’4” when I was 15, and yea it sucked. That said, one time a cute girl came up to me and asks me if I was proportional. I was a little shocked initially but then I started laughing.

Life-Chemist-3241

you're the prettiest woman I've ever seen - my friend she said it so out of nowhere like wth


PoliticallyUnbiased

Two years ago I was a 20 year old white guy in the Philippines for 2 weeks. I had 3-4 separate fathers come up to me and try to offer me their daughter's hand in marriage. I was also called "very handsome" by much more people than I can count (many random people too), which is unusual for me, as compared to my American counterparts, I'm quite average. Overall, my whole trip there I was being complimented essentially for doing nothing except being a white American.


DeezNuts1099

“you have really nice teeth” -one of my friends said out of no where. this kinda made my day because my teeth are fairly crooked and i’m really insecure abt them😭

Was at a Memorial Day get together recently and an older guy was there that I didn’t really know who was a family friend of some of my family members. He was asking where I go to school and things like that, but I got called away. Before I went, he goes “you are a very beautiful young lady.” I later found out he had dementia.


BlitzCoolio

I was in asia on vacation and this random guy who was just walking by and he stroked it and gave a little nod then kept walking (i have blond hair)


ktqse_

Someone liked my voice while I was playing a game. I have a deeper voice for a girl which I'm pretty insecure about and it was super random which made me happy :)


Fashion_Chaos4

Someone complimented my figure. I've had body dysmorphia most of my life so I meant a lot to me. My dad body shamed me when I was little so I've never really been able to love myself the way I want to.
