Good morning.I am sure most of us now and then get a compliments from some one.How do you handle this.For me is just a simple thank you.For some hard to understand how to handle it?You have earned someone respect and admired you.I get somewhat embarrass when they say you are a cutie there. I may blush a little,this is typical for me. If you get flustered by praise.Then maytime it is time to learn to take the compliments face value.Appreciate the best.After all you are worth it Right! the photo you guess it.public domaine Have a good morning

I say thank you. Then I question whether I am worthy of the compliment.

I used to do that. No more. I accept that I'm "hella" good at what I do.

I smile and I thank you and I usually blush because I see no reason why I received the compliment.

@AbbyGreenhill I do.The most is they are shocked about my age.They do not believe me that I will be 87. This for me is hard to handle.I never looked at this way.I may not look like it but feel it

@amadeo It has been a while. Too long! I've had one or two issues to deal with which have left me very little time to get on here but they've been resolved now so hopefully I will be around a lot more. Nice to know somebody noticed I was gone

Since I am a shy person..... stop laughing , I tend to not know what to say, so I also just say thank you.

I normally just say thank you. I believe people make life a lot harder than it has to be sometimes. They let others opinions influences how they react, what they say, and do and I just find that absurd.

@amadeo I hear friends talking all the time about how they should tell someone something and I'm just like just say it to them. If they are really your friend then they will appreciate what you have to say as long as you aren't been extremely rude about it. Or when people have crushes on other people and they obsess about it or are scared to say something but get jealous or mad when the other person gets into a relationship with someone else. I mean the worse thing that person can say is no and it won't be the end of the world if they do and you can move on if they don't. I'm the kind of person that if I have to say something I say it (always in a nice way if I can) and if others don't like it then oh well. I don't change my beliefs or standing on something just because others might disagree.

I say thank you even when they are from strangers. However accepting a compliment doesn't mean that I like to be complimented, I am just polite and it ends there. If the compliment comes from a friend or colleague, I smile and give back a compliment to them. It is nice to hear nice words from our friends.

I can just see you blushing up red! I don't handle compliments very well, unless it is quietly said, just one-on-one, otherwise I dislike the attention.

@Juliaacv there you go.Thank you for the correction there on compliments .The spell checker did not pick this up LOL Same here I think attention will be too much for me to accept.

I have a bad habit of trying to prove them wrong. I need to learn to just say thank you.

At this age I still blush. And to hide the embarrassment I will put up a smile and say than you.
