I never understood why people say,
” I know you probably get this all the time so it won`t really matter, but you`re really pretty .”
If that isn`t the most sideways compliment I ever knew .
Whether or not I get that all the time shouldn`t even come up . If you think I`m attractive & feel the need to tell me, I honestly appreciate that . I appreciate your honesty . No need for you to put that statement first because a compliment is a compliment nonetheless .
Whether you tell me 100 times or only tell me once, it still matters to me . I`d rather be called pretty than called ugly, as would 99.9% of people, so it`s music to my ears to see that you think I`m nice looking . I just hate when people do that . Like, you down play yourself when complimenting someone ? The fuck ? I cannot fathom the reason why you`d do that for something as simple as a compliment .
I guess they feel like I`d say something like, ” I KNOW .” But that statement would never leave my lips when it comes to a compliment . I`m nowhere close to being like that . Maybe I just give off that impression ? Idk, I just assume it`s because they don`t know me like that .
