The Unsolicited Compliment
|
The Unsolicited Compliment Like a deer in the headlights.... I remain frozen in spot, staring awkwardly at the giver of the compliment, unable to comprehend what comes next. Do I thank him? Do I act non-nonchalant and shrug it off as if my life is an unending string of complements? Do I shrink back and stare making an already uncomfortable situation THAT much more uncomfortable? I think we all know what I ended up doing.  I was out on the sales floor talking with a coworker when a customer approached to tell me I had an enchanting laugh that made him smile. He could hear it from a few isles over. Naturally, I turned 5 shades of red and thanked him in Pirate talk. Matey!! Yah, makes no sense to me either, but he got a good laugh out of it. Lord help us all..... |

They do say laughter is the best medicine. You made someone feel better in these hard times

I'm not always as cool as I'd like to be. LOL

Many people have trouble accepting compliments and are embarrassed by them. I often give compliments though usually for something she is wearing or sometimes a laugh. When I do I try to wait till I may do it in passing on my way out so I do not look like I am hitting on her. About the only answer to give to a compliment is a thank you and then go on with what you are doing.

You just accept it as genuine ,Say why thank you that is very kind .My buddy who died on the table during surgery but was brought back got me to see you do not have all the time in the world .Tell the people you care about how you feel now.I reconnected with an old gf whom I knew I loved more than anyone else before or since .He says have you told her ? I said it does not seem right to say anything ,she has a boyfriend now .He said idiot don't leave her twisting in the wind , just say it and let her decide for herself what she wants .so I did in a non saying the word love way ,Well now 2 months later we are in love again .she has to handle the complications in her own way and I must be patient and supportive . Just say it !

Yes, to us normally shy introvert types, compliments can be awkward!

Few things make people smile more than the sound of an infectious giggle or laugh. I would have done exactly the same as the gentleman. And I bet you accepted the compliment with more grace than you think you did! Lovely stuff McLade!

thanks for sharing I enjoy these the most my grandfather used to tell me if you had something to say to someone, that you should go ahead and do it, because you might not have the opportunity in the future I follow that have a great day Otis Redding - "I Want to Thank You" I want to thank you for being so nice now I want to thank you for giving me my pride Sweet kisses too And everything you do I know I'll never find another one like you If I prove my love it won't be true Oh my my darling How can I forget you

I guess if I heard some one that had a pleasant laugh, I might do the same thing, I would make it a more private moment. trying not to look or act as a stalker!!! You never know.. Just be well and stay safe,

Those unsolicited and unexpected compliments are the best!

I've never heard your laugh, but I've heard some laughs that caught my ear.

Those unsolicited and unexpected compliments are the best! Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!
