LyricalLesson Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I'm an aspiring singer and I think I make some pretty good music. I'm a decent looking guy and I try to dress nice. I'm a people-person, so I have a lot of friends. And I've got a leader-type mentality, so a lot of my peers look up to me... HOWEVER, believe it or not -- NONE of those things have ANYTHING to do with my favorite compliment to hear. I'm not very good at taking compliments anyway, I never really know what to say. But in any event, the one I like to hear over anything else is some form of "Hey Jevar, you smell good!" Today, Cathy B. (An older female supervisor of mine) straight up announced to everyone in the warehouse that I smell "damn good!"... Pretty sick. Might sound a little odd, but smelling good is important to me. For me, smell is directly tied to the brain. If you smell like shit, I'll NEVER forget, and you'll forever be "that one dude that smells like shit" even if you smell okay the next time I see you. On the other hand, I don't forget a good smell either. Case & point: My 4th grade teacher...she smelled like Heaven. Beautiful smart, young, nice lady, but her scent is what I remember most. It's pretty flattering when people go out of their way to tell you that you smell damn good Above anything else, I always make sure I wash the body, freshen the breath, brush the teef, spray one squirt of the cologne and apply the deodorant when I walk out the door. What about y'all? What is the best compliment you've got? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janetDAYZ Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I will ALWAYS remember what I consider the BEST compliment I've ever recieved. I was at this very popular shopping center in my hometown and my dude (at the time) was in the restroom. So im like sitting on this bench in the hallway waiting for him and shit. This older lady dressed in ALL black with all this designer shit on,blinging jewelry -very uppity,wealthy,posh looking woman comes out of the ladies room with her granddaughter. So her granddaughter starts to kind of jog and the lady tells her to slow down while in the process the lady glances at me as she's walking by then does a double take and looks at me again. She then comes back and says to me "You are a very attractive young man". When I tell you a nigga was FLOORED ,I was STUNNED I get compliments all the time but that one REALLY pierced my soul becuz I would have NEVER in a million years thought that lady would pay me any bit of attention -not to mention her actually voicing that she thought I was attractive. Guess I was too quick to assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I was too quick to assume. That's definitely a memorable situation right there. She was tryin' to swoop her up a youngin On the real though, you never know who's diggin you, and it feels good to get a compliment like that from someone you'd never expect to throw one your way.

Reyna â™” Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Whenever someone compliments my wisdom/intelligence or when someone says something to the effect of "You have a beautiful heart". The greatest though would be when someone close that I love tells me that they love the way I protect and comfort them. That they feel safe, accepted and loved with me. No compliment is greater than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaquero Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The one that sticks out the most for me, was during the final week of my Foundations 2 class at culinary school. One guy showed up real late for the final. When he finally showed up, I had already done my dish and presented it to the instructor. The guy came up to me and said the only regret he had about showing up late was not being able to taste my finished dish.....he made my day that day.

William Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Not to brag, but recently I have been getting my fair share of compliments. Things like, You look good, You smell great, You've lost weight! and so on. It's kinda strange for me cuz I'm not used to receiving compliments, lol. I just say something like, thank you, that's very nice, etc. But yeah, it's v. awk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though, such compliments are only positive in the beginning; after this four-year progression, I don't care to be reminded that I used to be a heifer. And yes, I used to serve jew-fro cunt.
