The Seven Best Ways to Accept a Compliment
Giving compliments can be difficult, but sometimes accepting a compliment can be even harder. I know that I am often taken off guard and don’t know what to say and will just answer with a “you too” and blush.
Truly, some of us are just not good at the compliments thing so here are some suggestions on how to respond when complimented.
One: Wow that is so nice. No one has said that to me before.
Two: You know how to make me smile.
Three: Thank you for that. You’re sweet.
Four: Stop it. Just stop it. (Then punch them in the stomach while laughing hysterically)
Five: Well, I like your sweater too. It brings out your eyes.
Six: Oh, you’re the best. Really.
Seven: You made my day with that compliment.
OK, so number four isn’t real. I just threw that one in there for fun. Happy complimenting.
