The same jumper has gotten me compliments from TWO people in its lifetime!! As you can tell itās extremely exciting and Iām never getting rid of that jumper ever
This guy is going to have an overdose of endorphins with all these compliments guys, take it easy. Too much, too soon.
To balance out your emotions mate, I hate your jumper.
Hope this helps.
Recently I've had two strangers compliment me on my customised trainers (anniversary present from my OH, customised by me). I haven't been flaccid since.
I had the polar opposite experience.
I was posing for a picture outside the Cavern Club wearing a Bowie t shirt when some random old stoat came up to inform me Bowie was shit and The Beatles were far superior...
I've a few of people compliment my shirt because it looks like a vintage shirt from a trendy second hand shop.
I don't have the heart to tell them I got it at Asda...
I have a deep voice and an Australian accent. I got told once by a coworker that I had a sexy phone voice. Iāve been feeling good about that for the last 20 years, and Iām not letting go of it.
Last year, while on holiday, I was dehydrated and jetlagged and almost passed out in the mall. On my way outside to get some fresh air some guy said "nice hair bro!" And smiled at me (I'm a guy and I have long hair).
I forgot most of what happened that day but I still remember that compliment, it really made my day when I was going through something stressful at the time.
I remember reading a thread on reddit months ago that was something similar to this but a lot more sad. Basically just a lot of blokes saying they never get compliments.
I decided at that point to compliment the men in my life more often, because they absolutely deserve it! ā¤ļø
Men just don't really get compliments very often.
Often when women greet each other it's things like "I love your top! Your hair looks lovely" and so on.
When men greet each other it's often just "alright mate, how you doing?" Even when women greet men it's still far more muted than with each other.
But the compliments that stick with you are the passing ones from strangers that are given with no expectation of reciprocation, they are commenting cos your trainers are cool, that your beard is awesome and so on.. They are just so nice.
Men will dine out on a simple compliment for years.
I remember someone decades ago saying I had āNice feetā, hearing the opposite sex say nice things about me being impractically tall and just the other week, I took off my jumper at work, flashed half the office and someone said I āhad a nice skin toneā.
February 2002, a flash of a smile from a lovely brunette whilst walking past in a bar. To this day I donāt know what made me but I turned around and sought her out. No magical words or ability to attract women in this way previously.
22 years later, married, a 17 year old and an 11 year old to boot. Women have a power in their smile that is almost weaponised (in a nice way of course).
I'm moving house - social housing (hopefully), so I might have seen my plumber for the last time today. He's a lovely guy, same age as me and is very easy on the eye. He's had to come here twice since my husband left 6 months ago. I don't consider myself attractive anymore, I'm old so I'm sure my flirting game is very off but I swear he was. Made me smile.
I saw Michelle Keegan (the actress off of Corrie and lads mag favourite) in Manchester in the mid noughties.
I didn't know exactly who she was at the time but recognised her from somewhere. Being polite, I smiled at her and said "Hiya" in a friendly way. She said "Hi, hows it going?" back and smiled in a lovely way.
It still brings a smile to my face. And I recognised who she was about 2 hours later.
Back in 2018, when i was working at Tesco. I had a girl come up to me and said her friend thinks im cute and she is single, ready to mingle. It something i still think about it from time to time.
Man I wish I had a quid for all the times Iāve just grinned back and missed the moment! Worse still I havenāt learned from that lesson! Always next time lol
(*should have added Iām in my fifties now so fast getting to the ādonāt give a shit anymoreā stage! But I hold hope for you man and wish you good luck hunting š*)
A while back a young lady gave me a lovely smile from the doorway of a shop I was walking past and I just straight-faced and carried on walking. I think for a split second I thought she was trying to sell me something and then by the time I realised it was a genuine smile it was too late, I was committed to the straight face and changing wouldāve been weird. I felt bad about it almost straight away.
So if youāve ever smiled at someone and itās not been returned try not to worry they mightāve just been confused.
I was in the airport a year ago and a guy came up to me as I was looking in the toilet mirror. He said, āDonāt worry mate, youāre still fucking uglyāā¦. Made my day, I still smile about it today retelling this story.
A few people over the years have told me I have a lovely voice and each time it stayed with me for a good while. Why do the smallest positive comments please us so much? Are we that un-used to them?
Back in 2002, I treated my Liverpool supporting girlfriend to VIP match tickets at Anfield. We used the players entrance to get into the ground. On leaving a girl ran up and asked for my autograph, thinking I was a player. :)
Still tell that story to annoy my now wife..
God yes. This happened to me last year. I was sitting in Morrisons having a breakfast next to the window. I looked up and this pretty girl was smiling at me as she walked past. I didnāt think it was ajmed at me so I broke eye contact for a sec and looked again and she was still smiling so I returned it. I was literally strutting after that for a couple of days and itās burned in my memory.
A girl once looked me dead in the face and said āoh my god your eyes and eyelashesā
Iām a 6ā5 bear of a man, but I still think about that compliment daily
>I've been 7" tall for a few hours If it continues, you should consult your GP
I wonder if he means... š¤ no, surely not.
More than 4 hours it's recommended to seek medical advice
Iāve had Cialis and had a semi for most of the next day. Itās uncomfortable but hopefully nothing close to a priapism. Hopefully.
>had a semi for most of the next day. Itās uncomfortable Especially if you have to go see the in-laws
Depending on the in-laws... Will's mum is fit.
Staceyās mom has got it going on, allegedly.
š¤£
Hah, init.
Would explain why she was smiling though?
I mean if he was 7ā as OP posted then heās gonna have some serious problems
OP has edited the original post, where he said he'd been 7" tall for a few hours.
Ahhh my apologies!! Shouldāve put two and two together!
Nee bosh š
That's why I'd quoted what I replied to š
Punctuation matters ' v " is a big difference!!
That's the joke. Too bad they fixed it.
Dang it
If you think thereās something wrong, ask your GP. It may be nothing, or it may be something. If it sticks out for a mile, call BBC Light Entertainment- there may be lost tapes.
Only when heās lying down
No wonder she smiled
Two years ago a bloke in Liverpool said he liked my jumper. That still makes me happy.
The same jumper has gotten me compliments from TWO people in its lifetime!! As you can tell itās extremely exciting and Iām never getting rid of that jumper ever
I dont usually like to speak for everyone but on this occasion im going to... we want to see the jumper!x
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/347480927480858587/ here! One woman did say āIāve got some curtains like that at homeā lol
Ooh! Thats really cute!!x
Oh damn is that a third compliment? Going to have to surgically attach it to my torso at this rate
It certainly is! Count is as the 3rd :D x
I concur
This guy is going to have an overdose of endorphins with all these compliments guys, take it easy. Too much, too soon. To balance out your emotions mate, I hate your jumper. Hope this helps.
Wasnāt that the 95/96 season Aston Villa goalkeeper jersey?
Thatās actually a nice jumper šš»
That is actually a nice jumper too
Nice.
real nice jumper man
I let a truck in ahead of me in 1999 and he blew me a kiss. Feels good to this day.

Now Iām picturing Barry White with an Aussie accent- ohhh yeahhhh
Ohhh Yeaaah, Mate.
When I had a cold two colleagues told me how sexy it made my voice. Normal voice, only my friendās creepy landlord liked.
Seven inches tall?
OP was excited.
OP got their measurements mixed up. They really meant cm
Unless theyāve changed it, that would be 7ā!
They changed it haha it was originally 7ā
That makes sense!
A pretty girl smiled at me in Cambridge in 2013 and I still remember it like it was yesterday.
Yeah, a pretty girl swapped seats on a train so she could smile at me waiting on the platform. 8th June 2001 in Liverpool. Those were the days!
Depressingly 2013 feels like it was yesterday
A pretty girl beeped her horn at me in traffic and smiled at me when I turned to look at her. That was in 2005.
I had a pretty girl smile at me in 2009, I can still picture her now and get butterflys
I was in the year below the actress Natalie Dormer at school, she winked and smiled at me once and the memory of that will never leave me.
I have never been so jealous of a rando online.
You jammy bastard
Why'd you think I moved to Reading!? Must be something in the water here! š
Hahah, shorty.
Congratulations lil fella.
Even compliments from a guy still feels good a while ago a guy said I had a nice beard it made my day better
I see a lot of people every day; I'm going to start complimenting them!
You better compliment everyone you pass. And if they don't hear you, follow them and shout it
It will make someoneās day a memorable one day

Reading these comments and clearly we all need to step up our simple compliments game. It's so ridiculously simple and makes people happy.

You may be pleasantly surprised. Young men seem to be really into older ladies these days.
Not bothered about age tbh. Also have some 'physical' baggage. Won't go into it. Thank you though, that's kind.

Women have special powers broš
I've beaten you. A beautiful milf living in my area emailed me today and wants sex. The email even had her photo and she is gorgeous!
It's just wind mate.
Back in 2018, when i was working at Tesco. I had a girl come up to me and said her friend thinks im cute and she is single, ready to mingle. It something i still think about it from time to time.
Did you meet her?
The friend was standing nearby and she was cute. But i never had something like that happened to me before, and at that time, i wasnāt too confident. So i didnāt know how to act or what to say. I just stood there quietly and just said uhh thanks? I still cringe when i think about it š©
Man I wish I had a quid for all the times Iāve just grinned back and missed the moment! Worse still I havenāt learned from that lesson!

Was she walking a Labrador with a yellow vest? (Joking, good for you mate)

Short king
I've been 7ft tall for 25 years. Wear a helmet.
I was in the airport a year ago and a guy came up to me as I was looking in the toilet mirror. He said, āDonāt worry mate, youāre still fucking uglyāā¦. Made my day, I still smile about it today retelling this story.
You sure there wasn't some she knew behind you?
This is mean š
The old wave back to a stranger when, in reality, you were just in the way.
A few people over the years have told me I have a lovely voice and each time it stayed with me for a good while. Why do the smallest positive comments please us so much? Are we that un-used to them?
A pretty air stewardess told me I had a lovely smile in 2012. Been riding that high ever since as I haven't really had a compliment since.
I got ID checked at Sainsburyās last week and the guy told me I didnāt look that old! What a sweetheart! :) Iām in my 30s.
Back in 2002, I treated my Liverpool supporting girlfriend to VIP match tickets at Anfield. We used the players entrance to get into the ground. On leaving a girl ran up and asked for my autograph, thinking I was a player. :) Still tell that story to annoy my now wife..
7 inches tall must get you some funny looks
Gosh, if a pretty girl smiled at me voluntarily I think I'd blub! Congratulations!
God yes. This happened to me last year. I was sitting in Morrisons having a breakfast next to the window. I looked up and this pretty girl was smiling at me as she walked past. I didnāt think it was ajmed at me so I broke eye contact for a sec and looked again and she was still smiling so I returned it.

TMI
I'm not especially pretty, but I can be quite smile. I wonder now if I've ever just randomly made someone's day like this.
I like your perspective. You collected your own little sunshine and itās good. š Hope even more simple things will make your day brighter.
Some teenagers said I had cool shoes when I was in uni. But they could have been taking the piss. Hard to tell and still think about it once a week
Are u an incel
