“A Bit Weird, But Okay”: Our Community Shares The Weirdest Compliments They Ever Received (40 Stories)
Say what you want, but the skill of complimenting someone is a very subtle one.
Some praises are like magic wands that always work. For example, "Talking to you is like a breath of fresh air!" or simply, "Wow, you look beautiful," or "You tell the craziest jokes."
However, there are plenty of people in the world who choose to stray from the traditional path of praise in favor of something more original, peculiarly specific, or downright bizarre, leaving their unfortunate targets to wonder whether they should be flattered, irritated, confused, deeply amused, or perhaps, all of the above.
I asked the Bored Panda community to share the weirdest compliments they ever received, and truth to be told, the responses did not disappoint.

“Nice muscles… for a girl,” a football player at my school said this to me, roughly 10 seconds before I almost broke his arm in an arm wrestle.
Never mess with a swimmer. Or a girl. Or a girl that swims. I guarantee that you will be injured either mentally, physically, or both.
When will they ever learn? Why do they still believe that a penis makes them superior? I have so many questions.
Exactly! Just because you have a meat popsicle doesn’t make you superior 🙄
Load More Replies...Oh yeah. Swimmers are crazy, chaotic, and hella strong physically and mentally. That's why I'm friends with a bunch of swimmers :)
Hi! Can I be your friend too? I swim competitively, but i run, too.
Load More Replies...But... girls legitimately have to work harder to build the same amount of muscles, especially in the upperbody. It's indeed weird to refer to that in such context, but i think the guy in another answer who called someone "smart for a woman" is way more deserving of some injuries)
I dated a hypoglycemic, intelligent, beautiful, lady when I was younger, and I fucucked up a beautiful thing. To this day, I hope she's happy, has what she deserves, because she's a frigging beautiful soul ..... Mary F, if you ever see this or it gets back to you, stay awesome.
I can see a jock saying this as a supposed to be compliment and not understanding how it sounds. wonder if he was trying to hit on her but just straight up negged
"I hate pretty girls. They think they can get what they want with their looks. That's why I like you."
... so I'm not pretty. Ok.
Did you tell that person off? What a horrible and misogynist thing to say about girls in general. Pretty girls don't all act like that and it's also gross of them to try to single you out as an "exceptional girl". It's not a compliment. Uplifting someone just to bring others down is so gross.
I just started ignoring him at work. He turned out to be a weirdo and a creep, anyways. I had invited him to my karaoke joint and he actually asked where the nearest Subway is to get a something to eat for cheap ( this wasn't really a date.). We were at a restaurant for crying out loud. It's not like Subway is that much cheaper. (I ordered nachos and let him pick off mine but he was taking a lot of it.) The bartender even had to remind him he had to spend at least $15 to stay for karaoke LOL. He wasn't even ordering anything other than water. I thought my ex was a cheapskate. holy shishkabobs. If he wasn't able to afford to go out he could have declined and I'd just go on my own like I was originally going to do.
Load More Replies...Everyone is pretty in their own way. It just needs that one person to see that in you
Not only that, but they're putting down attractive girls and treating them like they're the same. Putting down women is just not cool at all.
"You're definitely not my type but I'd still be willing to sleep with you." Yeah, I didn't ask or want know this, but thanks I guess.
My dad and sister got into a heated argument today over whether Julia Roberts' face is beautiful because of her symmetry or because of her flaws make her more beautiful. Sister wasn't buying the magic of flawed beauty.
I was in a Barnes and Noble once and a woman told me that she liked my aura. Apparently, it was very bright and positive so it was a nice compliment.
Came here to say the same kind of thing. I was on a bus once and a woman sat down beside me and told me I had a beautiful aura.
No one in CVS has a good aura. At least where I live
Load More Replies...This has been said to me a handful of times. Though I'm pretty sure they need new aura glasses because I'm pretty bitter and jaded
i got this one too. smiled, then, when alone, burst into gales of laughter.
"You're so tall & pretty! Are you a stripper?" - Some Random Lady at Walmart. And she was completely serious as she offered me a job at the local strip club after I responded "No."
Wow. I mean at least you were not asked to buy perfume in a ripped bag. (It was not even bought yet by the person that was selling it.)
Jesus, that's always the first question i get, don't know if I should be offended now? Ha jk, besides strippers always have those awesome heels

A woman once said to me with exaggerated enthusiasm, "Oh, I just love the way you apply your makeup! It looks so natural - especially your blush! And I know what I'm talking about because I used to sell makeup."
I replied, "I'm not wearing any blush. That's just a mild case of rosacea."
It sounds like it was meant as one at least. I bet people with rosacea get their share of ugly comments in their lifetime though so I get the raw edges too. I despise bullies.
Load More Replies...I have to laugh at this but from an "I've lived it" point of view. I have rosacea as well. Then I had eye eczema which made me look like I was wearing eye shadow. I used to get so many comments on my minimalistic "makeup" I gave up trying to explain is a derm issue and not makeup and would just accept the compliment.
I have rosacea. I used to work in a fridge and people would look at me and go "wow, you must be REALLY cold, your nose is so red!" Nope, it looks like that all the time, but yeah I'm definitely cold in this 35 degree room.
Ha! As I also have rosacea. People say you've been out in the sun. No-just look like this all the time. The best was, with mask on, my EYE DOCTOR - felt the need, in the middle of a hot flash, to point out that I have rosacea. No s**t.

As a black girl please stop holding us to beauty standards! Just because we are black doesn't mean we are not as pretty! This comment makes no sense and is rude. If you want to compliment us then compliment us. Don't say the above comment. Please.
I was told by an elderly white lady that “You’re a pretty little colored girl.” I was in college and it was around 2001 or so. I don’t feel like she was trying to be hurtful or disrespectful, but I didn’t know how to respond.
Ugggggggg!!! Some of these older generation people. I've had to educate some of my family members who were shocked that saying that was offensive. They truly mean no harm, but their ignorance NEEDS to be corrected and called out.
Load More Replies...That's f----d up! That's the same as saying "you're pretty smart for a girl"
"You have eyes like a cow. Jersey cow. Jerseys are pretty foxy for cows." Stop digging laddie.
To be honest - the Jersey cows ARE really pretty, especially their eyes!
They are! But I still wanted to slap him
Load More Replies...I studied ancient Greek when I went to uni. They had this phrase: "cow eyed Hera" . It was supposed to describe how she had the most amazing eyes, the apex of beauty. And to be fair if you've ever looked at a cow properly, they DO have beautiful eyes with fantastic eyelashes :)
Had an Aunt tell me I had cow lashes. Thought it was a backhanded statement because that was the kind of person she was so I cut my lashes. I was 10. They have never grown back to that length.
Load More Replies...For some reason I read that as crow. I was trying to figure out what a jersey crow was.
I mean, I think this is a nice, if kinda eccentric compliment. I have told my partner before that he has lashes like a camel, and fully meant it as a compliment.
Not even sure if this was a compliment, but someone once told me, I'd be useful in an apocalypse.
Them: Wow! You’re weird!
Me: thank you!
Them: *Awkwardly turns around*
When anyone calls me weird, I reply, "Thanks. That's a compliment coming from someone like you." The reactions are fun to watch since people are not able to think of a comeback quick enough.
Random man at a shopping center, back when I was a teenager, "It's not right for a girl to be tall, dark, and handsome!"
In days gone by, ladies were often referred to as 'Handsome' it went out of popular usage. That was actually a nice (if a little odd) compliment x
Maybe not from an adult man to a teenager, that’s creepy at best

Following a routine colonoscopy, my gastro doctor said I have a "perfect colon." I said, "Thank you!"
People would pay good money to have a perfect colon, I am envious :)
Here is a perfect colon just for you! : I hope you feel better soon!
Load More Replies...During an annual checkup in college, my gynecologist exclaimed, “oh what a beautiful vagina!” I’m guessing she was used to seeing them with STIs…???
I had a gyno tell me that I have "an adorably small uterus" Whatever that is supposed to mean.
Load More Replies...The doc who did my c-section complimented the definition of my abdominal muscles.
Doctors/nurses do seem to say things like this often. Sounds a bit off but is relevant I guess.
My doctor told me I had the spine of a man 10 years younger. He insisted that I return it.
I was once told that I had the healthiest vaginal mucosa a doctor had ever seen. 🤣🤣🤣 And he was totally serious. I totally took it as a compliment, weird though it was.
I think this is weirder than mine! 😆

Once my crush's mom complimented me on my socks in front of my crush and then she told him to look at my socks and I felt plain awkward.
I dont get it. I love socks, notice socks, compliment nice socks and dont mind if mine get complimented. Why is this weird?
Probably just made for an awkward moment!

My friend told me I was an off-brand Energizer Bunny.
I have to say that sounds like a fitting title for my sister, but I wouldn't say it to her because it does sound kind of off...
Why off-brand?! Sounds like a back-handed compliment. But they probably meant it kindly, like you're economical. 🤔
The PA at my doctor's office always tells me I have beautiful eardrums during my annual visit. One time she even told another doctor to look at them. The other doctor was also impressed.
I prefer to read this as PA=intercom; like their doctor is always announcing it publicly over the speakers. It is more entertaining this way.
That happened to me at the eye doctor once. He told the new associate to come look at my eyes because he won't get to see a perfectly healthy eye very often. They were way too close to me gaggling at my eyes.
When I was pregnant a coworker told me I looked like Mother Earth. He meant it as a compliment.
Perhaps it's just me, but I feel like automatically saying the first thing that pops into your head is NOT an advisable strategy for most of the "compliment" givers mentioned on here...
And it is. He was in awe of you and your ability to bring forth life like Gaia.
Gaia may not be the best comparison . . . she had her kids kill her husband so like . . .
Load More Replies...The nurturer of us all? Motherhood personified? I'd be flattered either way.
You're more beautiful than a new set of snow tires! (I'm from northern Minnesota.)
Sounds like a weird but well meant comment to me! Unless "snowtire" is slang for something over in Minnesota.
Not that I'm aware of, but considering the climate, snow tires are very valuable, so it's a really good compliment.
Load More Replies...That line was in a commercial in the early 2000s (verbatim!) Another part of the commercial said "And I don't eat mean 'cuz I am VETERINARIAN" and it showed a girl twirling her hair and chewing gum. Can't remember what the commercial was for, though.
It was a commercial for HBO in the 90s. I knew when I read the post that I had heard it somewhere before. The veterinarian comment made me remember where.

You are really smart for a woman.
It happened 30 years ago. I went to a store that specialized in heating systems. Was looking for a thermostat. At the time these units were still very basic. I asked him if it was programmable and he told me the settings were already set in. I wanted the heat to kick in the morning at 7am but the unit was set for 6am. I looked at him and said, that's okay, I will just set the clock on the thermostat one hour off. The look on these two guys face was priceless, they sell these systems and never figured that one out. I didn't bother responding to their remark, they already felt stupid.
That was certainly meant as a compliment , but you cannot help thinking, "And you ar dumb for a man"
...says the person who doesn't see anything wrong with saying "you're pretty for a Black girl"
Load More Replies...I think you’re mistaking me for someone that gives a sh*t what you think.
Some of them aren't. Exhibit A: the guy from this post

"You look like you can kill someone with your calves." I have pretty muscular legs.
I had some guy at my school tell me the the same thing, less than a week after he tried to claim me as his gf. I was like,” Dude, stop trying , you know I’m gay and don’t like you, quit”
"tried to claim me" - did he stick a flagpole into your head, or what?
Load More Replies...I once had someone tell me, "You have more calves than you could ever use." Unfortunately, I wasn't quick enough to reply that my calves are over-sized because I use them all day. ( I work at UPS, loading package-cars on the night shift, which means I spend all night going up a step into the cars to put in packages, then down a step onto the dock to pick up more. It's like an all night stair master. )
I wore a new t-shirt with a purple cat on it to college. Us students from different classes got squeezed together into one room for a lecture on internships.
In the middle of the lecture, in the center of the room, and with every student's full attention, our teacher suddenly falls silent. He peers over the rim of his glasses, at my shirt.
"...Nice pussy."
Teach must be real old school, like from when p**y still meant a cat.
It's meant both for a long time...he was being a dawg.
Load More Replies...Tonight show guest with her cat asked Johnny if he'd like to pet her pu**y. He responded with something like "Sure! But you'll have to move the cat." It hasn't been all that long since that was a common meaning.
What? Noooo!!!! What a pig! He might as well have followed that with Nice rack too
That sounds like one of those comments you could get fired for.
"You have really nice veins."
No. That's why it was weird.
Load More Replies...Not going to lie, I have told more than one person this (work in med so I don't think it's weird but I'm aware that it is very much weird)
I've been told this many times... the one time it freaked me out was when the nurse said something under those lines and THEN said something like "I cant wait to get in those" I was like.... timeout
I'm a hard stick and would love to have nice veins. Instead, I usually get jabbed several times until they find a good one. It sucks.
"Wow! You look really good in clothes!" This was said in front of my new husband. He was a customer of mine, I'm an automobile mechanic and he had never seen me in anything except uniforms before.
I once got "I almost didn't recognise you with clothes on" from someone I knew only from swimming. That could be misinterpreted so easily.
I got that exact comment a couple of times when I was a lifeguard & swimming instructor! Usually immediately followed by some blushing and stammering as they realized how what they just said sounded. I'd laugh and assure them it's ok, I knew what they ment. Once though, I greeted a regular on my way into work while still dressed in my street clothes. He was old enough to be my grandfather, and I had always thought of him as a sweet, friendly old man. He said it to me with a leer that told me he fully intended the double meaning.
Load More Replies...Also a mechanic and I ran into one of my co workers at the store. He decided to say "Huh, I've never seen you in clothes before." (Because of our uniforms)
LOL! Then you've probably been mistaken for a worker in a store and some shopper starts asking which aisle is this or that located it.
Load More Replies...Seeing someone out of context can be really weird. I ran into my son's pediatrician at church, but without his white coat and 'scope didn't recognize him. It wasn't until my son (4ish) ran up to him that it clicked.
"You're so pretty, except you're fat. At least your face is pretty."
Some people truly think this is a compliment. I've received similar.
Load More Replies...Someone rated girls at my school. I was a 1/10 face because I had a very bad allergic reaction to the food they served for lunch, and I got a 2/10 body because “she’s fat but she’s pretty thick, even if her chest is flatter than your a**.” Guess who didn’t get in trouble for tripping a kid in front of the assistant dean(woman who heard the whole thing)? That’s right! Me! If you rate people based on their looks, either do it in your head, quietly, not at all, or prepare to fight.
I was in a coffee house type place where folk singer Tim Morgon was singing. He'd banter with the audience. I was a sweet college student and he picked me out to say "You don't sweat much for a fat girl." I was devastated. It still bothers me.
Sorry to read this Dorothy, that was a horrible and mean thing to say, even worse by the fact he said it in front of others. What the hell was he thinking. S x
Load More Replies...My grandmother used to tell me I'd be pretty if I lost weight, then she'd complain if I didn't take seconds or thirds at dinner. Which way did you want it, Gram?
A lot of people praise my eyelashes. I am a man, and the only thing I know about my eyelashes is that I have them...One woman told me that when I die, I could donate them to her and she'd get them made up as false lashes. Not creepy at all!
I am now imagining a trailer for a horror movie where this crazy lady is going around ripping out people's eyelashes in search of the perfect false pair because she has some traumatic even in her youth involving eyelashes that pushed her into this eye raising obsession.
Load More Replies...Honestly man , you should see this as a good compliment, especially if it is from a woman. It seems to women, eyelashes are considered important and it is not weird for them to compliment each other about it.
My brother has deep-set eyes with really long eyelashes. Me...not so lucky :-(
Yeah, I had a colleague give me the opposite of a compliment once: I had brought my 6mo twins in so my team could see them, and she said "wow, they've got such long lashes! They must get those from their father, right?"... I never went into work without mascara again...
"Your hair is beautiful. I'd like to ask you out but I would want to control your hair. I'd want to be your hair master."
Thankfully safe. It was a very short exchange through a dating app
Load More Replies...Had a dude i never knew existed from my Western Civ course literally cry when I came to class with my hair cut short. It was about 3 feet long and I donated it to Locks of Love (they make wigs for cancer patients) he was so sad. Apparently he lived to smell my hair (it was my first class of the day so it was freshly washed and still partially wet) and worship from afar. He was so beside himself I apologized 🙃
The compliment comes across as cute to me, not creepy. I am adjusting my Creepimeter accordingly so that in the future I will find this scary.
This was a compliment I received on the "About Me" section on a dating website: "I really like your syntax."
My friend told me I was "Strange, Unusual and very truthful with what I say." She was being nice and said she liked having someone who was different and can trust when they say something.
I respect highly this "very truthful" part. It's like a holy value for me.
Bring very truthful will make you seem strange and unusual in some quarters.
Load More Replies...I have twice visited places I once worked at and have been told that "it is a lot less weird around here since you left."
Ok this legit could be said about me and I'd totally take it as a compliment. Lol
Then please don't leave BP, we all seem to prefer weirdness.
Load More Replies...That is indeed a compliment. Who wants to work at a “less weird” place? Gimme weird people alllll the time!
I would enjoy hearing this even if it was definitely not meant as a compliment. Perhaps especially so.
"You ar not as ugly as most gingers and lucky you 're a woman, and you only have freckles on your face...."
Gingers are awesome and freckles are cute - there is no way to change my opinion!
Whoever said this, I’m not letting my shoulder freckles listen to them.
As a freckled ginger, all over, I take second hand offense
"Your voice is much bigger than your body." Still not 100% sure it was a compliment. Low key bothers me occasionally.
Reminds me of the first time we heard my puppy bark. We all wondered how did that huge bark come out of that tiny body?
I have an unusual voice which people say is very soothing. I often did voiceover work and once worked in a call center. The weirdest compliment I've ever received was from a guy who said, "Wow, you give good phone!"
Probably means your volume does not fit your physical description. Like Amy Winehouse. Kind of petite but powerful voice. I'd consider it an awkward complement, shouldn't bother you.
Was working logistics in a military hospital, one of my duties was a daily report phone call. The young enlisted woman & I got to the point we'd trade jokes back & forth. One day, she had business in my office, so stopped by to meet - told me I didn't sound so skinny (I'm 5'6", at the time was ~ 115 lbs). Another time, my first-ever mammogram, technician told me I had dense breasts, like a teenager (I was mid 30's at the time) 😉
"You look like a beautiful vampire." (I have very pale skin)
I have actually gotten that comment and used that reply.

"Your scleras are so white, you must be very healthy!"
Hmmm.. white scleras can be an indication of health. But it can also be down to the amount of melanin their body produces. There is a correlation between the lightness of a person's skin, and the lightness of their scleras.
“I love your new glasses. They make you look smart.”
So this actually happened once friend: I like your glasses! They make you look so smart! Other friend: don’t let looks decisive you.. IM SORRY I DIDNT MEAN IT LIKE THAT

Controversial here, but I really don't think that's true. I say this to my friends all the time whenever they get new glasses, and they both ways took it taking it as a compliment, as well I would too.
Load More Replies...Hahaha! Note: I was getting basically A's in every college class I took. Half of my classes I wore Levi's, a T-shirt & high tops, no make up & my hair in a ponytail. The other half I dressed a bit more on the "business casual" side, hair & makeup done, wearing clear lens "nerd" glasses. Hmmm. Guess in which classes the profs treated me with more respect?
My mom when I got my first (and current) glasses - oh they look nice on you, you appear smarter with them. Thanks mom?
Lol my dad said that to me the other day about my new glasses. Good thing he's my dad and I know he can be a little awkward like that.

Load More Replies..."You smell... *Long sniff* Like champagne and roses." I still do not know what that means.
I mean, I once told my friend they smelled like water and mints, champagne and roses isn’t that bad
I once had a man I'd just met that night come up to me at the bar, take a big whiff, and say, "You smell f***in' laundered fresh!"
Ok but it seriously bothers me when I can't place what something smells like!
My endodontist told me, while I was being prepped for oral surgery, I had "nice, long roots." Thanks?
This must happen a lot with medical professionals. I was getting some cavities filled and the dentist told me three times during the procedure that I have "a very strong tongue."
The last time I had a root canal the endodontist said I was his favorite tooth of the month. He likes the weird ones. I had an extra branch of nerve and they bent at a 90° angle.
Long roots caused me to have two root canals in the same TOOTH! No thanks
Ironically, I've had 2 root canals on the same tooth and I am currently in the middle of the implant process. The long roots keep the tooth (and discomfort) alive for a long time.
Load More Replies...After pulling out a wisdom tooth my dentist commented that it was the cutest wisdom tooth he'd ever seen since it was so tiny. Still hurt like hell for the years it took growing out.
Actually I think that’s kinda cute. Almost an awkward flirt. Better than mean short roots anyway.
I had to have a tooth extracted. The roots were ridiculously long. Side note: while going under I started singing "Sweet Painted Lady" by Elton John. When I came to the doctor complimented me on my lovely singing voice. Awkward.
"You've got nice legs, for a fat person."
Anything that includes,"for a ______ person" is not a compliment.
No, I turned around to see who it was. Since I didn't recognize him I just gave him the stink eye, turned my back on him and walked away.
Load More Replies...Reminds me of when Worf thought a woman's legs were hot "for a human".

You are better at sports than other Indian girls. Like wtf
that's two very specific qualifiers. how many Indian girls that play sports does he know to think he has the right to judge them and stereotype him?
Um, excuse you? I'll have you know that I'm decent at badminton and my friend's the best cross country runner in her school! And we're both Indian!
I also run cross country, I play tennis and volleyball. That guy was just a d******d that's terrible at complimenting

When I was younger I was a Goth (in the 80s). I was in the ladies toilet at a club and was chatting away with another girl (as you do) and she said "I didn't think people like you were nice". I was often referred to as the weird one too. I didn't mind that. 53 now and still weird and proud.
People waste a lot of time in their lives assuming stuff about other people and getting it all wrong in the process. It's plain stupid imho. Stay weird 🤟
Load More Replies...When my daughter was in primary school, kids would switch houses when they were playing and my husband would usually do the run-around. I met one dad at a teacher/parents thing and said: "You're not at all what I imagined!". He was in a 3-piece suit and I always imagined him in shorts and sandals. He chuckled and said "Is it a let-down for you?". Nope. I was a bit embarrassed, got red in the face, then look-up to see another dad, just looking at us shocked. My husband, as usual, just laughed. He knows me well.
Friend said that I have a beautiful neck and asked if she could stroke/touch it?
Why? Maybe it was just a strokable throat. Or maybe the pal is attracted to her/him.

An old family friend once said to me: "I see you took my advice and didn't lose any weight since I last saw you!" I replied back: "I see you took my advice and got older!"
Perhaps, instead "I see you took my advice and got older, but you've taken it a little bit too far."
Dang you're so purty,one of them big ol' healthy gals.
That I remind them of canned beans. I don't even know how to respond to that.
“You have such a Roman nose” let’s just be honest… it’s just a big f*@#ing nose

You're the prettiest person I've seen in a wheelchair. Seriously? Just because I get around differently than most people by using a wheelchair doesn't mean I need to be reminded about it constantly. My wheelchair and disability doesn't define who I am, I am so much more.
oh, honey, your the stupidest a*****e I've ever met. ironic isn't it?
And whether you use a wheelchair has nothing to do with prettiness! What is WRONG with people?
And you are ugly. Talking about the one who said that NOT the person in the wheelchair!!!!

In general, just don't say anything to people while your fingers are in their mounth. I get it, you want to be nice and chat a bit to ease a situation that could otherwise be streesful, but if we are to have conversation while you have your fingers in my mouth, I will end up biting you.
When I was 17 a friend of mine said:"I wish I was as good in putting people off as you are."
"You look more human than usual" For context, I have a severe iron deficiency that makes my skin deathly pale and that day I was wearing foundation darker than my skin color

Was on a 5 hour flight from Hong Kong. I sat next to an elderly lady who was flying alone. We started a conversation and she seemed nice. Then she said: "You're very pretty, but you're fat." I just smiled uncomfortably, put on my headphones and watched movies for the rest of the flight.
This is not rude in certain cultures. It's a statement of fact. She might even have been trying to show concern.
Someone called me fat once so I said I can loose my weight but you can't change your ugliness
"I like your big bird shoes!"- a random person at harps, I was wearing yellow converse. and I have small feet.
A girl once told me she liked my accent. I didn't have a different accent from her I just can't talk right.
I have a very twangy southern accent. On the phone one night with a patient's son (I'm a retired geriatric nurse) from New Hampshire updating him on mom's condition. He stops me in the middle of my sentence and tells me that I have a voice "like taffy slowly being pulled on a hot summer day". Is that a good thing? All I can think of is hot and sticky. That's been over 16 years ago and it still creeps into the front of my head at times, lol.
when I was like 4-5, I was looking at the toys in Target and some woman passes, runs her hand along my ponytail, saying "I love your hair!!" it was strange, but it was funny :]
Same! I was on a ride at DisneyWorld, and the lady behind me was just stroking my hair!
I probably would have turned around and bit her 🤣🤣
Load More Replies...I was on a train in Egypt, and a whole group of kids got on behind me, ran by and touched my hair, and got back off. I mean, I did have amazing blond hair (very much past tense) but it was still odd though a little charming.
I thought your pfp was Toothless for a second lol

For some reason, ever since I went bald people seem to do this to me a lot less often. Weird. /s
An older female colleague introduced me to my new (very) senior boss (already high in his 80s): "Sir, have you met Yoga Kitty, she is from our new plant..." His response: "Yes, I already noticed her - she's the one with the nice breasts!" Hmm, thanks... I guess?
He's long dead by now, this was roundabout 20 years ago - different times!
Load More Replies...The conversation got even better afterwards! To overcome the ringing silence after his comment my colleague proceeded to introduce my boss to him: "And this is Mr. XYZ, our new head of sales, also from our new plant..." to which he replied: "Well, they could have kept him over there - we already have enough old men here!" So, I guess I still got the better reviews in this case...
At the gym: "You could balance a Buick on your butt!" While getting a massage: "You have very elegant toes."
Apparently I have a cute sneeze. Thanks?
i get this a lot either i don't make a sound at all or it is a "kitten sneeze"
Who the hell notices AND mentions this kind of stuff? I notice it, but probably won't mention it...
lol, my husband's sneezes have been know to scare people and have caused a few shrieks
My ex grandmother in law told me I was bigger than I looked, while out shopping with me getting clothes. It was over 20 years ago! I’ve never forgotten that!
You could buy her some clothes in a smaller size, telling her that as she shrinks with age that they will fit her later . . .
why the actual f**k would you do that. literally get clothes that fit you and stop being an a-hole to people about their size
Load More Replies...My ex MIL said something similar. First she told me that she had decided that I wasn't fat, I was just retaining a lot of water but she'd find some herbal medicines for that. Then a few days later she said that she had changed her mind and I WAS indeed fat, but it was because I had low self-esteem.
"You're not as gay as I pictured in my head." Ugh. Which is why I usually don't tell anyone
I am a lesbian who constantly got told I didn't look "gay" when some creeeeepppyyyy guy hit on me. Now I have super short hair. Sad I had to fill a stereotype just to be left tf alone.
I HATE the a-holes who say you don’t look or are too smart to be lesbian!😡

Load More Replies...and your reply... "And after opening your mouth I realized you're not as smart as I thought."
what??? lol. I dont know how ppl actually go by stereotypes, but I NEVER assume someone's sexuality/gender based on their femininity or masculinity. Not a good indicator. I've know girly lesbians and macho gay men and straight men who happen to be effeminate, talkative and fun. Some of these "weird compliments" seem like backhanded judgment to me.
"Gay" is really a rather large spectrum that stretches all the way from bare-chested men with their buttocks exposed riding down the street on top of an open wan wearing heavy makeup and feathered boas to someone living a quiet life in the suburbs acting like anybody else, and where you would have no chance of guessing their sexual preference before they told you. Gay men are just as diverse a collection as heteros. sexual prefence is only a small of a personality, and isn't nassesarily linked to many of the other traits.
My friend to this one good looking but snotty girl who had a bit of acne: "Your face is as smooth as a baby's bottom....with diaper rash." I thought that was a bit much though.
You’re strong for a girl. (Most Christian, sexist, and stupid guy I’ve ever met.)
Honestly though what's wrong with being a Christian. I mean I get it if it's one of the annoying Christians but c'mon. You cant put us all in that group.
Very sorry goose. Didn’t mean it that way. He was looking at me and said that. He thought I was weak. He was one of the bishops who thought women as toys.
Load More Replies...I think I would have told him he was pretty strong for a girl, too.
As a VERY GAY Catholic let me share a story. One time, I was hanging out with my friends in a public place. This guy came up to us with some of his friends, and yelled “wrist check!”, so, you know the normal. I just ignored him and let my friends engage. Well, after the whole routine of telling us we were going to hell, it was unnatural, ect. ect., he raised one of those plastic and metal folding chairs over out heads. So, obviously, we had to get rid of him now. So what did we do, we each pretend to reach for a razor in out bags (don’t worry, none of us had any), and he went away pretty quickly. Didn’t stop him from approaching and messing with us for the rest of the night. Remember, God loves everyone, he makes no mistakes, and people like that obviously didn’t take in the teachings the way it was intended. Sadly, pro-life, racist, and homophobic Christians are now the poster children for the faith. You are loved and I hope you have a good rest of you day/evening/night.
I was told by several family members that I am their favorite bc I don't tell people what they want to hear, but I'm blunt and severely honest. Even when they don't want to hear it and they get mad at me or hate me for it, they appreciate that I tell them what they need to hear instead of placating them.
Yea, I tried being blunt and honest, cause I couldn't stand one of my friend's behavior, and they just recently told me I lost their trust because of something very small I said during that time. I gotta learn how to choose friends more wisely. Cause it's hard when a lot of things I do or say hurts his feelings. I'll say: "what up weirdo" and he'll take it to heart.
There is a line between being honest and being rude and you cross it. Small help there : don't use something true, something they are like race, gender, sexual orientation, body to mock them. It's only fun for bullies. And makes you a bully btw.
Load More Replies...The real art is to tell people the things that they don't want to hear, but need to hear, in a gentle way that won't make them feel hurt. Telling the truth may sometimes be a good thing, but being blunt rarely is. Brutal honnesty is not a virtue, it is just being incosiderate, and a sign of social tonedeathness. The same point can often be delivered in a number of different ways, but not all of them will have the same end result relationshipwise.

You have very beautiful ovaries, said the gynecologist to me. Good to know that I am beautiful inside?
That's ok, I'm still not that good, but I'm getting better and I have been doing it for 2 and a half years.
Load More Replies...I was eating lunch at my high school a while back and someone who I’d never really talked to came up to me and said ‘You’re long.’ There were many moments of awkward silence before he just spun around and walked off.
Try to think of anything said about you as a compliment. Because it might be meant as one, and even if it isn't it will make you much more happy to think that is is.
Once an obviously inebriated guy sat next to me at a bar and said "You're very beautiful." I'm sure I blushed and I know I said "Thank you." He then went on to say "You have a big nose, but you're very beautiful.". Even at the time, it made me laugh. Decades later, it still makes me laugh and smile. I know it was intended to be a compliment and while it was certainly off the wall, it was still appreciated.
Being told, “You’re so goofy and silly, how are you still single?” I don’t think goofy is a plus for most high school boys but oh well.
Are you kidding? My husband was the goofiest person I knew. It rubbed off on me. We were in our mid and late 20's when we met but, that was a big attraction for me. He made me laugh a lot. We often said "nobody else would ever put up with our goofy asses". Stay goofy and silly, someone is out there for you that will appreciate it.
This made me smile, thank you for your encouragement :)))

Load More Replies..."Hmmm... Maybe your taste in music isn't so terrible, after all." (From a good friend upon learning I enjoyed listening to bands like The Granberries and not just Victorian light operas)
You haven't heard of the Granberries? Betty White was their bassist and the covered Cranberries songs. (Now I want this to be a thing)

Load More Replies...my grandmother thought I was wearing makeup, I have never ever in my life worn makeup. she also said that my eyebrows were something people strive for, my eyebrows are very bushy, and she thought I was wearing lipstick.
Got a pleasant accidental compliment from an esthetician one time. I was getting a facial and she told me she was just going to remove my eye makeup first. I told her I wasn't wearing any and she went ahead and wiped down my eyes anyway. Then she said, "Oh! You're really not wearing any!" My eyelashes are long and thick, so that actually wasn't the first time someone had assumed I was wearing mascara. Both of my parents have very petty eyes. Thanks, genetics! :)
don't you hate it when your eyes are so petty that it holds a grudge against the other (this is just a joke lol)
Load More Replies...I was friends with a person for 3 years. Then one day, while we were working on a project, she looks at me then exclaims “OH MY GOD YOUR EYELASHES ARE SO PRETTY!!!” I’m like… thanks? She then proceeded to ask me to give them to her and if I don’t she will rip them off my face. But we are best friends, and make comments like this to each other, so it was funny :D
"You're not as dumb as you look." I assume it was a quotation from something on TV.
If it's an accurate assessment, work on ways to leverage it.
My friend was over one time and out of no wear just touches my cheek and says " you have a very soft face." Still don't know how I feel about that
Depends on how you feel towards them, gender doesn't matter if you in love

When I was 12. We all got matching long-johns for Christmas with those funny button down drop-drawers in the back. I thought it would be fun to, well, try it out. Unbuttoned them, did my business, and made my way to the fireplace for Christmas Eve pictures. "HEY Mikey!" my sister shouted after the picture. "Nice Caboose!" .... oh boy. It seems I forgot to button up my drawers and my butt was indeed hanging out!
She was clearly talking about the train set he got for Christmas

Lol! Had the same experience working @ a restaurant in NC, older guy says "you got a beautiful Carolina smile" Me: "I'm from New Jersey" ...tip went down dramatically after that revelation. I need to learn how to people and just say thank you :/
More like what I say to some of my clients (I’m a tattooist). Sometimes their skin is just soooo satisfying to tattoo that I drop “Ohhh, you have such nice skin” and it really comes off like I might throw them in a well Buffalo Bill style.
A tattooist who worked on me once said "I only see the skin; I only see the job", though this was to put me at my ease when I had to take my shirt off in front of him.
When I lived in Copenhagen I was told by a classmate's mom that I behaved like a girl from way out in the countryside. The word in Danish that she used is not usually used in a positive way ("bondsk"). I know she meant it in a nice way but it still felt weird. I have given many guys the compliment that they have a handsome/amazing nose. I'm a nasophiliac and I notice noses. Lol. I'm sure almost all of them found it weird.
I have no visible eyebrows and got tired of drawing them on all the time so just stopped doing that!! Freedom!!!!!!! Hence, I ALWAYS notice othets' crazy eyebrows!!!!! They even have a special section for this on Reddit!!!!!! Check it out!!! Omg, don't people ever look in the mirror?😜😳
A new student assistant, who I had not yet met, sidled up to me and said, " I bet you were a Pagan." As well as being the Graduation Supervisor, I also taught Humanities and Fine Arts. Every semester I showed The Holy Grail before teaching the Dark and Middle Ages. She and I became very close.
Oh yeah, and this one- "your butt sure looks good naked, not flat like it looks in jeans"
"How come a beautiful girl like you could have hurt herself like that?"
No no no, I do not like that!! Reminds me of when an old male psychiatrist said to me "But you're so pretty, why would you cut yourself? Would you cut your face?" after he stroked the scars on my thighs... 🤮
Ask not the reason, why the pain? I have been there and comment like this really drop you down that black hole that caused it.
This random girl that I didn't even know walked up and started playing with my hair (at the time it was medium length, mid-way between my shoulders and ears. It's curly, sometimes it would look like I used a curling iron on it.) Her: Huh, your hair is super pretty! Me: uh............. thanks? Her: *STILL PLAYING WITH IT* do you use a curling iron? Me: no... I just brush it when I get up.... Her: huh.... *plays with it more then walks away* Me:..........????? We were in gym. In middle school. I didn't even know her name.
I also have mid length curly hair, and this is why I NEVER wear it down
Sitting in a bathroom stall at a convenience store, a woman says”Ma’am I love your piercings, did they hurt?” Um, thanks, yes, please excuse the toilet flushing.
Why would sticking a piece of metal, completely through an earlobe hurt ?
I do not think they were necessarily talking about pierced earlobes, though. I get that question from time to time in the sauna...

That sounds like their problem lol. I personally do this sometimes too. So far since I've switched to using those scrub daddy sponges, gotta say I like the rough side of it, but don't like the soft side of it. It doesn't pick up grease as well as the scotch-brite sponge does. I gotta find a product that has a combination of the 2. You have any preferences?
I think you are talking about scrub mommy's. If you find the real scrub daddys they are hard on both sides, but you can control the firmness with water temp.

Coworker asked my age, I reluctantly said "30" and she said "Oh! That's ok, you would never know it" for context she was 27 and all my other coworkers low 20s. I'm like......ok?????
"You're...pale and interesting." From my Gran, who loves but doesn't like me.
My love for you is like a cumquat.
I've been complemented on three things in my life. Once I've been told I have nice hair (normal) Several times I've been told I have nice arms. (I'm rather muscular) But the one I get the most, probably over thirty times, is that I have nice eyebrows. (Oddly enough)
That is a wonderful compliment! I should know... i don't have any! But the ones i draw on are complimented all the time!
I was walking to work one day and passed by this older couple. We exchanged good mornings with each other. Then, out the blue, the lady says "Mmm, I bet you smell good too!" I just do that WTF in my head and smile, and say, "uhh, yeah. Showered and everything."
Really annoying back handed compliment - I was at a specialist Dentist having a painful procedure and I had a mouth full of instruments. The Dentist told his Assistant 'she is such a beautiful woman when she smiles' I felt upset that he would talk over me like I wasn't there, and did he expect me to smile under the circumstances. Not Professional at all.
"He would talk over me" I thought you said you had a mouth full of instruments, how were you talking?
I wasn't able to talk, he was talking with his assistant as I mentioned :)

My first office job, at a car lot, I was getting stuff out of supply closet, the boss says, I'll bet you look pretty nice naked. A very sexist place, way before any movement calling him out. The sales guys would have me page Mr. Hunt. Paging Mike Hunt!
Ya know, in your own way, you're kind of pretty.
I saw a woman I know and said “oh Helen, you look so beautiful today “. She replied well you’re pretty, but just on the inside. I about choked on my coffee.
You’re a really good singer. You should join our punk rock band…(in high school).
Once I was in the school bus sitting next to this kid who was four years younger than me who was my best friend. A classmate of mine was sitting on the next seat talking to this guy on whom I had a major crush. My classmate looks at me and states 'You have a variety nose.' My crush turns around and laughs and says 'yeah, you do'. My friend almost pissed himself laughing. To be fair though I do have a weird nose. It's a bit long and slightly crooked...
Sounds like you handled it with grace and dignity since you know your nose is perfect'

I was a bartender and invited to a wedding reception of the daughter of a customer with whom I was friends. It was a rather upscale occasion and I was nicely dressed. A few of my bar customers were also there. One man who was a steady customer and friendly did not even say hello to me. I felt totally ignored. We were all seated at a long table and suddenly from out of nowhere he shouted...."Hi Betty! I didn't recognize you with clothes on!"
That's not meant to be a compliment (or a diss). It's just an old joke.
"my cousins are weird, and when I told them about you, they felt better àbout themselves." Not really a compliment but at least I'm making someone feel better lol
Someone told my friend he was "soft".
I am trans and genderfluid, and I finally got my mom to let get my haircut. She told me that I had such a feminine face I didn't look anything like a boy even with my hair cut. My brother told me I had an "aunt" haircut (my sister is pregnant) My sister told me I looked like Audrey Hepburn. And the entire time my grandma was here she kept telling me what a pretty girl I was and how my dad would be chasing away boys when I'm older.
MIL: Wow! Is your hair growing? Me: Usually Husband: literal LOL MIL: meant as compliment! ???
A few weeks ago I was at Kroger with my 4 year old. An older lady commented on how cute she was & I thanked her. She then told me she loved my hair color (I'm a natural redhead). I thanked her again and said "it's always been like this." Her next comment completely threw me off. She said "well you paid for it." I must have momentarily made a face because she then said "oh is it natural?" Well obviously.
“You used to have such nice legs when you were skinny”.
Still do have nice legs , see how they can walk me away from you if you don't keep your opinion to yourself?
As a teenager with braces on, I was sitting on the bus one day and smiled at a little girl with her mother. The little girl tugged on her mother's sleeve and said "Mommy! That lady has diamonds on her teeth!"
My mother calls me fat as a compliment and it doesn’t bother me contrary to what others think because when my mom was my age she tried to gain weight because of how thin she was and it never seemed to work.
Just some thoughts here from me: Ladies, so you know guys often don't get complimented very often and thus we remember a compliment (even the weird ones) for a very long time and with a lot of impact. Feel free to compliment someone, you may have a bigger impact than what you might know. I'm a guy so trust me on this one. I truly wish I had received a lot of these compliments back in my youth or even now. Perhaps a less lonely existence might have resulted in my life.
