I love compliments, don't get me wrong. I just don't like it when I first meet someone and they shower me with, "You're so unique", "You're so beautiful", "You are very special" and etc. A simple "You look nice in that picture" or "You seem very nice because you to care a lot" would work fine. Unless you are wonderful with words or I start complimenting you. Do you see the difference? Truth is, the examples of the ones I don't like, I don't like because they make me feel uncomfortable. I know these people that do this are trying to compliment me but they are making me want to run away and never talk to them again. I know that sometimes it makes them feel better as well but this problem could be easily solved for both of us by a simple re-wording of a phrase.
