Forums _ Girls' Locker _ when you're complimented on your look

Posted by: angel_revelation Feb 28 2005, 10:47 PM

srry if there's a poll on this already... and srry if the poll doesn't work or something. this is my first so i'm not sure if i'm doing it right.. anyways, how do you react/what do you say when you're complimented on your look? i always think that ppl are joking or making fun of me...

Posted by: Chii Feb 28 2005, 10:49 PM

i blush when people i don't know say that...when it's someone on the street i walk away but i'm secretly pleased...and when my boyfriend says it i tell him that he's pretty/hot/beautiful/sexy too happy.gif tongue.gif

Posted by: WrathOfOnigo Feb 28 2005, 10:50 PM

When someone i don't know says something nice to me i just smile and say thank you. But if its someone i know i will say thanks and give them a compliment too.

Posted by: sexii_dessert Feb 28 2005, 10:55 PM

i say thank u most of the time because if you don't aagree and u say "are u crazy? eww" they'll argue theres no point to it.

Posted by: ItzOnlySydney Feb 28 2005, 10:57 PM

if itz someone i know i usually get rly mad becuz i am so parinoid that they sare trying to make me say "aww thank you" and they go off and say "wow she rly belieed us what a loser"

It depends on who it comes from. Some people, I just go whatever
On my friends, I just compliment them back or say thanks
*shrug*

Posted by: minus_perfection Feb 28 2005, 11:27 PM

i say thank you.

Posted by: hpsm2 Mar 1 2005, 12:32 AM

Well, i go like "uhh, sure... thanks"

Posted by: stephinika Mar 1 2005, 01:30 AM

depends. i usually thank them, sometimes blush.

Posted by: syaoronsangel Mar 1 2005, 01:48 AM

If it's my parent's friends or whatever I just say thank you...if I really believe them I'm not sure. If it's my friends, it's cause they're kidding...or they should be. Yeah, okay.

Posted by: starlette Mar 1 2005, 06:52 AM

I always say thank you if its strangers, cuz theres no point in shooting down someone I dont know for being nice to me...But I never belive them. The reason is, no one I know ever really compliments me. My boyfriend NEVER does. And I guess I'm not really around many other people, except some of my chik friends, all with serious self esteem problems, meaning they would come closer to shooting you down when you look good instead of complimenting you...No one really ever gets genuine compliments around here...everyone is so mean!! I mostly get "oh ur hair looks cute" or "I like ur make up" not "Danelle u look pretty today." Only when I'm leaving for an audition. My cousin always tells me I look nice, to help my confidence a little.

Posted by: Nicolatofu Mar 1 2005, 07:32 AM

I say thank you and grin. I sometimes blush depending on who says it and what they say.

Posted by: perfectxflaw23 Mar 1 2005, 07:58 AM

I voted joking. Mostly because some people actually scuttle away laughing after they say it. I say thanks and everything.. and if they don't laugh, I'm happy. But when they do.. it really brings me down.

Posted by: wind&fire Mar 1 2005, 07:59 AM

ask how long theyve been blind for

Posted by: Caitlin Mar 1 2005, 01:24 PM

it depends
most of the time im like aww thank you
at other times im like are you crazy?
or im like, i wish i could think the same about myself

Posted by: miss barnes Mar 1 2005, 01:46 PM

i'm usually surprised if they comment..well not on clothes because people always say my clothes look good but, if they say anything about facial features then, i'm shocked

Posted by: EmmalieV Mar 1 2005, 04:13 PM

I smile but im used to gettin compliments i hope that doesnt sound conceited.

Posted by: seremela_culnamo Mar 1 2005, 09:17 PM

Face to Face: I think the person is crazy
On MSN with my friends: I laugh my head off and ask something like, "are you blind?"

Look at my picture. I'm definately one of the ugliest person you will ever come across. My look really explains why I have low-esteem and confidence

Posted by: xlitoxb Mar 1 2005, 10:45 PM

I smile and say thanks, but most of the time I just don't believe them. So yeah.. and it does also depends on who it is and what they say.. because sometimes, they just say it to be nice. *shrugs*

Posted by: salcha Mar 1 2005, 11:33 PM

a mix, depends onthe person really.
i might feel embarrassed/happy/really surprised

Posted by: angel-roh Mar 2 2005, 01:55 AM

blush/happy
or i just say "aww thank you!" hehe...

i got a high self-eestem *cough*

Posted by: DanielleMaria05 Mar 2 2005, 10:30 AM

Well, I never hear compliments, so I don' t really know how to recieve them, so, I kinda blush,and im all embarassed...

Posted by: bluecrystals Mar 2 2005, 11:06 AM

if i hear it from my friends, i think they are just saying it to be nice. but if they mean what they say, i think that they are crazy. i've also had a few people say that i'm not good looking. although it did hurt. i appreciate that they weren't lying to me.

this one time, a guy i don't even know came up to me and said something good about the way i look. i really thought he was joking and trying to insult me. because i just couldn't believe it to be true.

Posted by: maia_dc Mar 2 2005, 02:40 PM

I just say "oh.. thank you," then kinda forget about it. It doesn't really affect me. mellow.gif

Posted by: hosing Mar 2 2005, 03:21 PM

Usually its more like a mean joke... Some girls do that around my school... Two girls called me scrawny outta the blue couple of days ago -.-

Posted by: anqie Mar 2 2005, 09:09 PM

i smile and say thank you. lol..

Posted by: gponce10104 Mar 3 2005, 09:13 PM

well it depends who...if its by my crush i would blush. it was by one my friends i would just thank them...or if it was by any oter random person id just smile and then say thanks...

Posted by: mai_z Mar 3 2005, 09:16 PM

depends on the compliment, but sometimes a nice compliment can really make your day. Normally i'll just smile and say "thanks", and look for something to compliment them on

Posted by: HoodieObsessed Apr 18 2005, 01:12 AM

well, I feel embarrissed but I chose "blush, are happy" because I mean I am happy, I'm ASLO embarrised. lol. aspecially if it's a guy...I mena that's really sweet! but I'm still embarrissed...lol rolleyes.gif

I feel the exact same way, but of its my bf i compliment him too and say stupid crap like your too good for me. but I blush on the inside.

I feel like most comment are directed to a girl across the street, and usually always to the girl walking next to me, I've been only complimented like 3 times by other guys in my life, and told I'm ugly by at least every other guy in the world.

Posted by: No1_2_NoBody13 Apr 18 2005, 12:41 PM

i have like werid eyes like on the outside there dark blue but then going in they get lighter and lighter and then they turn white and they look freaky so when people look at my eyes they think there the best things in the world so i get it alot and i just get embarrsed blink.gif

Posted by: Shortiiex Apr 18 2005, 02:15 PM

sometimes i thnk they are joking so yeah i ignore them...but if they are not..be happy

Posted by: Azarel Apr 18 2005, 02:16 PM

I'm flattered. "Thanks."

Posted by: stolenantics Apr 18 2005, 02:16 PM

i simply say thanks

Posted by: KissMe2408 Apr 18 2005, 02:40 PM

i'm usually like, "aww thank you! that's really nice of you" and then say something nice to them back.

Posted by: sammi rules you Apr 18 2005, 03:53 PM

Posted by: inlonelinessidie Apr 18 2005, 03:58 PM

Blush and say thanks. blush.gif

Posted by: IamRad Apr 18 2005, 05:11 PM

depends on who says it. but i usually just say thanks... and get embaressed.. but u never know if someone is serious or not..

Posted by: jenika Apr 18 2005, 05:12 PM

some times i'm imbarrased or i think they're like being sarcastic but i hope they're not huh.gif yeah so i voted to say thank you pinch.gif

Posted by: toyo loco Apr 18 2005, 08:29 PM

it depends who it is .. if its someone i like ill feel embarrased but like if its anyone iwould smile and say thanks biggrin.gif

Posted by: iheartsimba Apr 18 2005, 08:43 PM

Usually it just makes me feel better..someone told me today I should be like a Vicotria Secret model, I was flattered although I knew he was crazy, haha.

So I guess I take it as a nice thing but don't look to much into it, because if you are so dependent on how people compliment you..when they insult you then you take that in just as much.

Posted by: Soleil Apr 18 2005, 09:44 PM

Id say it to their face. : Are you Crazy????

Posted by: ? ( . . . badNEWS Apr 19 2005, 05:00 PM

I would most likely smile and be kind of embarrassed
because compliments tend to embarrass me ; don't really know why [ l0l ]

Posted by: leptizz Apr 19 2005, 05:08 PM

i joke that the person needs their eyes checked, but i say thank you and blush.

Posted by: tmauze Apr 19 2005, 06:54 PM

thank them and normally return some compliment

Posted by: xxaznxgurlxx Apr 19 2005, 06:56 PM

Posted by: misz_ica Apr 19 2005, 07:22 PM

haha, i blush & turn rosey which causes me to smile my 'chinky' smile coz thats when i start to look asian haha

Posted by: Just_Dream Apr 19 2005, 07:29 PM

Usually, I think the person is crazy.

And then after a few seconds, I think they're insulting me or just joking. People are s sarcastic. cry.gif

Posted by: mouse_3k Apr 19 2005, 07:46 PM

"oh ok...thx" then walk away

Posted by: mzkandi Apr 19 2005, 07:51 PM

"errrr...thank you"...*backs off slowly*

Posted by: LEDO_D0RKETTE Apr 19 2005, 10:47 PM

I'm the type that says, "Aww, thanks, you're pretty too" & smiles. Even though, i think i'm ugly.

Posted by: aznxdreamer Apr 19 2005, 10:50 PM

i dont really have any reaction anymore except for some words (here comes too much ego and self esteem) because i get to many compliments and its just like "okay..i dont care anymore" whistling.gif

Posted by: Funky Buddha Apr 19 2005, 11:01 PM

Depends on how they say it and who it is
Usually its
"Yeah, too bad you cant be this good looking" xP
Most of the time I think they're joking though huh.gif

Posted by: weirdness Apr 21 2005, 03:08 PM

i'd be like wtf
and think either that person is crazy or insulting me
cuz im ugly :x

Posted by: O x LiseE x O Apr 21 2005, 09:06 PM

For some odd reason I count the compliments I get, 'cause I'm cool like that. LOL joke. But yeah I always smile and say "Thanks!" =] always happy to get a compliment. My mom says I go to school for compliments...

Posted by: sweetdreamsx3 Apr 21 2005, 09:54 PM

I say thanks and grin..but kinda in the middle of insulting if i dont know the person

Posted by: one_and_only Apr 21 2005, 11:55 PM

Posted by: TiNaBaBY074 Apr 22 2005, 02:17 AM

Posted by: caity_bug2005 Apr 22 2005, 02:00 PM

Not that I EVER do get complimented anyways. But yeah. I'd blush/happy. I like being complimented about my looks.

Posted by: sammehmyst Apr 22 2005, 03:04 PM

I say thanks, and usually try to compliment the person back about something.

Posted by: i can break Apr 22 2005, 06:51 PM

I blush, it makes me feel good when I'm complemented. I'm almost never complemented... _dry.gif

Posted by: eli5e Apr 22 2005, 10:31 PM

Posted by: mizz_mithy Apr 23 2005, 09:21 PM

i don't really get complimented on how pretty i am but my body. this really pisses me off so when i guy compliments me on my body i just look at them like i'm going to stab them.

Posted by: eggee Apr 23 2005, 09:46 PM

Posted by: callmebeautiful06 Apr 24 2005, 08:22 PM

I'm learning to be more positive and confidant about my self image and I actually get quite a few compliments and for a while I took them really bad...I just didnt agree...but I handle them better now.

Posted by: s0pnayish Apr 24 2005, 11:54 PM

I smile and say exactly that... "awww thank you" and then go on with what I was doing.

Posted by: FlutterFire Apr 25 2005, 12:32 PM

I just say thanks to the person who did compliment me.

Posted by: bravodancer04 Apr 25 2005, 12:37 PM

It was so. freakin. HILARIOUS the way she said that!! XDD

I'd be all modest and be going, 'aww, no, that's not true!' haha. =) but inside of course I'd be dancing the dance of a hundred .. I dunno .. flamingos? lol. tongue.gif

Posted by: Paradox of Life Aug 21 2005, 01:11 PM

It depends. If they say 'You're beautiful' or 'You're pretty', I feel really flattered and tell them thank you.

But if they say 'You're hot' or something like that, I get quite pissed. I just find saying it that way rude and ingenuine.

And if it's from someone that I don't particularly like or know, I might think they're joking. I find it rude when people comment about my look behind my back too. Whether it's positive or negative.

Posted by: OhXiet_ItzDonnA Aug 21 2005, 01:53 PM

I just smile and say thank you. haha

Posted by: eli5e Aug 21 2005, 01:57 PM

Posted by: xldubaliciousx Aug 21 2005, 11:19 PM

Posted by: lost [child] Aug 22 2005, 07:16 AM

because it kind of gets repetitive and obnoxious

Posted by: Bridget_rules_4eva Oct 8 2005, 11:51 AM

i usually smile and say thank you, then compliment them back! cool.gif

Posted by: celticsluvr Oct 8 2005, 02:01 PM

i just say "thanks; you do too!" but i personally hate it when i`m looking sloppy and people are like YOU LOOK FANTABULOUS! so fake... lol

Posted by: TheMiz Oct 8 2005, 09:17 PM

If it's a random person like an old guy on the streets then I'll get freaked out.
But if it`s like someone at school, then I'll say thank you and smile. _smile.gif

Posted by: jeSs1cA Oct 8 2005, 09:18 PM

Depending on the person, I'd probably just blush & be happy.

Posted by: bab3egurl8o5 Oct 8 2005, 09:45 PM

Sometimes I blush but depends who it is.
Then I'm like "OH thanks, haha"

if its my parents friends/relatives i just smile say thank you..compliment them back..really awkward b/c i know theyre doing it out of politeness and they dont mean it..so i dont really know how to react. if its my friends (who are mostly guys) and they call me cute..i feel embarrassed and call them crazy..b/c i dont know how to react when guys call me cute either

Posted by: Gypsy Eyes Oct 10 2005, 03:39 PM

It depends on the person. If it's a guy I like I would blush and say aw thank you. If it's just a normal person I would just say thank you and compliment something of theirs

Posted by: Nugget Oct 10 2005, 06:49 PM

I just say, "Ooh, thank you." I don't blush, but it puts a smile to my face.

I'm just suprised when a person that I didn't expect would say it, actually says it.

Posted by: helllla jankyyyy Oct 10 2005, 06:51 PM

I just say " Aha oh thanks!"

I'm really weird about taking compliments. It makes me smile but it makes me kind of blushy.

Posted by: Blue-Chan Oct 10 2005, 07:30 PM

I just say a simple, "Thanks."
I don't get into it, because I'm not much of a fan for compliments.

Posted by: BrokenDream Oct 11 2005, 11:36 PM

some people I cannot stand like to be sarcastic, and like to fool around with me. so, when they say I look nice, I know they are kidding. so, I just say something sarcastic back. but when real people say something, I grin and say, "aww, thanks!"

Posted by: cfaye3char Oct 12 2005, 12:05 AM

biggrin.gif biggrin.gif I just say thank you and say something nice about them, I don't believe them because I feel that I don't look nice, maybe they feel sorry for me when I try and fix myself up.

Posted by: starburst-addict Oct 12 2005, 03:39 AM

haha i'm just all "um..okay..thanks?" because...i dont believe what they are saying is true. xD

Posted by: Julie Ann Oct 12 2005, 08:43 AM

It depends but I usually am like ' Aww that so sweet!' and depending I might blush a little..

Posted by: archana Oct 12 2005, 04:34 PM


I'd be embarrassed but I dont blush.

Posted by: coop_ Oct 13 2005, 04:15 PM

Happened to me today actually, didnt know how to react so blushed, then as i went away smiled to myself _smile.gif

Posted by: ursedonah Oct 16 2005, 01:26 PM

I think they're crazy... and I either deny it or hit 'em... depending on how they say it.
for instance:
him: "you're hott"
me: *hits him*

or
him/her: "you're really pretty"
me: "what are you on?!?!"

Posted by: crazedbaby Oct 18 2005, 03:38 PM

It depends on who it comes from. But I'm normally like.. umm thanks. So do you?

Posted by: xklipse Oct 18 2005, 03:42 PM

if its some of my close friends, id say "I know, buahaha"
if its older peoples or relatives/complete stranger "er, thanks =D"

Posted by: xheartbroken_child Oct 18 2005, 04:25 PM

It depends on who its from.

Posted by: smearedmakeup Oct 22 2005, 02:20 PM

i'm really paranoid, so i would think that person is making fun of me, like thinking "wow, does she actually think i think that she's pretty?" and stuff like that.

Posted by: mysticbreeze Oct 24 2005, 11:02 AM

I'm usually caught off guard so I'm like "yeah...k thanks". cool.gif

Posted by: c0cONuTTeR Nov 7 2005, 08:51 PM

Sometimes I say thanks, or sometimes I say I'm not pretty.

Posted by: miss-_-guitar Nov 8 2005, 04:25 PM

it depends. if its a guy i like its fine but i hate it when ppl say that im skinny it makes me feel weird cause im really not that skinny. no one really tells me im pretty. i get a lot of ur weird. and i usually reply thax. ur normal. i donno what to say to something like that

Posted by: SillyCourtney Nov 8 2005, 04:40 PM

I reply, "Yea, I know I look good." and walk off grinning.

biggrin.gif I usually tell them thank you, because it's the polite thing to do.

Posted by: ktsou11 Nov 12 2005, 01:35 PM

i say "thanks" and try to compliment on them as well.

Posted by: Eternally_Yours Nov 19 2005, 01:38 PM

blush, say thanks, or think theyre joking. but most of the time i just thank them with a flashy smile biggrin.gif

Posted by: gponce10104 Nov 19 2005, 08:15 PM

if someone complements my on my look then ill just smile and then say thanks...but then ill just forget about it coz its no biggie

Posted by: x1hn0cent Nov 21 2005, 08:05 PM

i blush and smile[:

Posted by: disco infiltrator Nov 21 2005, 08:08 PM

I get really shy. And, I'm kinda insecure about my looks, so I usually try to correct them in their wrong thinking, depending on what they're complimenting me on. If it's my eyes, it doesn't really phase me; people tend to talk about my eyes a lot, but anything else I usually try to say that it's not all that great.

Posted by: nezumi Nov 21 2005, 09:16 PM

I can't help grinning and I feel stupid and embarrassed. Most of the time I just say "thank you" while smiling when it comes from friends, and actually it mostly comes from friends. They especially compliment me on my clothes and my general appearence. When it's my bf, even though I don't always agree with him because I really don't consider myself pretty, I try not to hurt him so I accept his compliments and I blush with a shy "thank you" or "you're nice"

Posted by: suddenly she Nov 22 2005, 01:17 AM

throw it back.
like the concert two days ago.
me "i'd rather wear a tux"
josh "but you look stunning!"
me "YOU look stunning."
he never expects it, and i do it to him at least every week. laugh.gif

Posted by: lolita kitty Nov 22 2005, 03:49 AM

it depends what mood i'm in.
if i'm in that pissy-i-hate-everything mood, then i'll probably say "ugh. no i'm not"
but if i'm in one of those happy-go-lucky moods i will most likely just smile and say "aww thanks!".

Posted by: krnangel4u Nov 23 2005, 11:42 AM

I just blush if they're adults, people i don;t know well, or if they're guys. But if they're my friends I go like 'R U CRAZY!' and argue about it for like a hour.

Posted by: faded23 Nov 23 2005, 12:24 PM

im just like thanks and then I'll tell them they look nice too...you know....

Posted by: c0cONuTTeR Nov 23 2005, 12:43 PM

Nobody complimented me in my real life...in forums, I have chalkful of 'em

Posted by: notelracailuj Nov 23 2005, 02:34 PM

if someone says im pretty, im really happy, and i say thanks a lot! but really, i dont control how i really look, other than what i wear and if i wear makeup or not, and how i do my hair. my parents really gave me what i look like and i cant control what i look like, but i still say thanks when people compliment me on how i look.

Posted by: yourfriendsteph Nov 24 2005, 03:35 PM

most of the time i feel awkward and impulsively give a compliment back

Posted by: annabel_x Nov 24 2005, 03:36 PM

i act normal..nothing much to say

Posted by: saintruthanne Nov 25 2005, 12:57 AM

it often depends on who's saying it...if its my mommy, I take it gracefully, if its friends, i brush it off or act funny about it "oh i KNOW...thank you...get it all the time..." if its aquantences i am embarressed and don't know what to say, if its a boy....well its only happened like once but i either try to act funny or get embarressed...like "why are you telling me that?" you know? its hard to take it gracefully sometimes...even though thats the best thing you can do.

Posted by: teeners__15 Nov 26 2005, 05:07 AM

i smile really dorky and go awwww thanks! i think _______ is cute/pretty too! haha. and sometimes pretty compliment on my giggle and i cant help but giggle anymore, cause i have a low voice for a girl so i dont get how they find it cute at all

Posted by: xcaitlinx Nov 26 2005, 03:42 PM

i say thanks and smile...then i'll probably compliment them back.

Posted by: aznhunnie6o1 Nov 26 2005, 06:54 PM

I usually say "Awww.. Thank youu!!" and smile at them. Hahahaha. Either that or I go "Are you kidding me?!" It just depends on my mood. Haha. Or.. How sexy I'm feeling. XD

"ARE YOU CRAZY?" i am traumatized with compliments. Scared or just unsure what to react to them.. lie to them and say

"Gee, you got nice pants too." -HAHHA

no matter wat, i blush. i cant help it. >.<

Posted by: DEVOT1ON Jan 1 2006, 10:31 PM

Depends. If it's about my looks I'll probably smile and not do anything cause idk, I just won't have anything to say. If it's about like something I own or made, I'll say "Heh, thanks :]"

I can't tell if the person is joking or actually telling the truth. I only get compliments like that from my mother.

I'm always very polite and smile and say thank you, even if I think it's not true.

Posted by: cleec Jan 18 2006, 05:05 PM

I'm so terribly awkward about it. I do not know how the hell to take a compliment from someone. I either blush, turn away and laugh, or quickly change the subject. I don't believe them half the time too and I think they are joking, so I treat it like a joke.

Posted by: The Corpse Bride Jan 20 2006, 10:11 PM

^^^
Me too! Well, sometimes.

If I know the person, I say "No, stop it." But deep inside it, of course, makes me feel good. I blush and smile at them.
If it's someone I don't know I smile and sometimes say thanks.
But it's a rarity, so it's nice to hear it when the time comes.

Overall, it makes me feel good inside.

Posted by: iamLADEE Jan 24 2006, 06:58 PM
