accept compliments gracefully

People say compliments like:
I love your curly hair.
Your beautiful
and stuff
but i just say yeah right
or show them my fist so they know ima punch their faces
but now i want compliments
i feel down
and i take back everything mean i sayed to people who complimented me
how i do that?

My best friend taught me somehow my true value. Ever since then I learned how to accept compliments.

I feel good about myself. Sometimes I don’t… But it’s always nice to get compliments. I just trying say “thank you” and not think about it too much.

be less defensiVe. I do not haVe low-self esteem. I tend to respond to compliments like, “yeah, I am pretty, but you hardly know me.” I do not do well accepting compliments from strangers. I think they are insincere. I do alright if I know the person knows me, I say “thank you” or “you are sweet.” I just think it is based on who I actually am rather than a superficial remark. I personally do not giVe compliments to people until I know them and when I do I often remark on character rather than outward appearance. See . . . is that defensiVe? I don’t expect the world to work the way I think it should but I don’t think that I should be labeled as rude if I don’t appreciate a compliment that is not well thought out. So on my list of 43 things to do maybe I should also write, “compliment people more often”

I am not doing good about this at all…........ It’s not I don’t want to get compliments. It makes my inside shrink. Then I try remember to respond by say “thank you”. Lately, I get compliments often how nice I look or something I had done for other people and so forth. It’s so nice of them to give me complimets I just wish I could accept compliments more gracefully. Sometimes it makes me sweat. I have no ploblems giving compliments to others… What’s wrong with me? Arrrr I know it’s on the other side of luck of confident. I guess more I feel confident and this goal will take care of itself. Hmmm…

I used to be hestitant to accept compliments, it is merely considering yourself of higher quality. Having better self esteem, love who you are, and this will come naturally. It is hard but surround yourself with people who really love you, who act like it as well as say it. And it becomes easy.

It’s always hard for me to accept compliments. It relates to the level of confident in me (I think).

To just say thankyou! Over the past couple of weeks i have gotten compliments and instead of saying “are you serious?” i now just say “Thankyou!” and of course smile!

It all started awkwardly, I’d just say “thank you” when someone complimented me… take a moment to reflect on the compliment and it’s implications then move on. From there it became easier to take the compliment comfortably and cordially. It then became easier to know when it would be considerate to return a compliment or when it wasn’t necessary.
