As a woman, are you offended if a male stranger tells you you’re pretty?
Scenario 1:Walking through the mall, with my friends, in H&M.A complete stranger , in his 20’s, comes by and says ,“Hi, I know this is weird . But I really want to say you are really so pretty naturally. I was wondering if you are some actress, but then I couldn't recall seeing your face . Just wanted to compliment you genuinely. Sorry if you find it rude.”I smiled and thanked the guy. My guy friends kept teasing me that I have fans on streets. But I didn't find it rude.Scenario 2:I was in a elevator of the hospital I used to work in. A kid, 7–8 years of age, smiled at me and I returned the smile. Then he signaled me to bow down so he could say something, I did with a wide smile. His mom asked him not to disturb me, but I said it's okay.He whispered in my ears, “You're so pretty. I wish you were my doctor. I love you, you look so sweet.”I kept laughing. I thanked him and chatted a bit till my floor came. He was adorable!Scenario 3:A stranger walked to me in a pub , drunk as he seemed. Told me I look hot and if I wanted to dance.I stared him down and he went his way.It depends on how genuinely you're being complimented.Even if a stranger compliments me and its a genuine one, it makes me feel good. I don't feel offended.Rather if a stranger compliments me making me uncomfortable with the vibe we girls naturally get from the wrong guys, I mind my own business without reciprocating any action over that. It offends if the compliment is purely in wrong approach.Being complimented over your looks genuinely, whatever anyone says, it makes your day! Even if I don't appreciate myself due to my busy schedule, it feels great that I get genuine compliments in between from strangers sometimes.
Is it an insult or compliment when a girl is called "thick"?
I am referred to as "thick" quite often and do not like it. I feel as though it is only a nicer and more pleasant way of calling someone fat... It is a debate that has sparked within my circle of friends with most guys saying it is a compliment and the girls are about 50/50. My boyfriend of 3.5 years loves my body, but I can't help but feel a bit offended when I am referred to as thick. BTW, I am 5'9" and weigh roughly 165. Over the course of the last year I have lost about 20 pounds...My boyfriend loves my body, I am constantly told I am crazy for thinking I'm fat, but I know I've got work to do...and being called "thick" really doesn't help my body image... So, what are your opinions? And please don't criticize me for my weight. I would just like to know whether or not you consider "thick" an insult or a compliment and why. I am very interested in unbiased opinions! Thanks!
What makes someone dismissive towards compliments?
I'm trying to understand a coworker of mine. He always seems to brush off compliments but says thank you every time, though very bluntly. Always accepts criticism and I've seen him make changes to them. I've asked him about this and he says that "Compliments do little for my ego or morale. Don't get me wrong, I love them and greatly appreciate them, but they're ultimately unnecessary for me. All they really do is let me know my work was at least passable; I view criticisms more valuable because that's what leads to improvements... I make changes based on them when I notice the critique is right, that there is something that needs changing that I overlooked. I'd be an idiot to ignore that feedback." When I ask why he always seems to be very unaccepting when it comes to compliments, he simply says "I don't convey emotion well is all". He's the first to arrive, last to leave more often than not; but I've actually seen him walk out of a meeting to continue working once when the boss began praising him in front of everyone because "I want to do my job and make a living, I don't need praise". That seems to be when he gets offended, if you praise him at all rather than praising the team and is very vocal about how he's not the only one that works hard. While he's a very social, carefree individual, he also seems very reclusive and seems genuinely happy about it. I don't understand the mindset, though.
My boyfriend farts in front of me :-(?
We are together for 6 months now. We live together and it happens to him to fart or burp in front of me. Today we were fooling around, you know, tickling, giggling, this sort of things. I sat on him and he told me joking, that if I wont stop he is going to fart, which he did. It's not the first time when he does it. I mean it was meant to be a part of our fooling around, but geez, it's below some decent level of jokes... It's simply gross. He is not doing it in front of his friends, he would not do it in front of a lady in a bank or his client or whoever, but he does it in front of me! I think it's super disprespectful. I'm not enjoying Al Bundy-like sense of humor, it's simply low. I went out of the room (he said "c'mon you can't be pissed abut sth like this!") and when I needed to take sth from the bathroom, conspiculously I used the other door, which made him grumpy. Seriously, I thought that non-farting policy is a standard amongst polite people. How can I make him understand how gross it is?
