Can you take a Compliment????

if you are asking: do you know anyone who simply cannot take a compliment, the answer is me. I don't take to compliments well, somehow I felt they are not sincere. In return I don't say that many compliments in my life cause I felt not sincere in giving them. I must confuse you with the explanation... Nowadays I give compliments when I want to rebuke someone...

Hi, both of the cases are possible.. She might think of herself unworthy of it. Or else, it is her habit to show her humbleness... Personally, when I get a compliment, I become dumb. I don't know what to say. I was, as a child, criticized so much for so many things that it never grew up in me to accept a compliment with a broad smile and open heart. When someone says something good about me, I blush, positively. And just blurt out, 'Thank you!'... One's upbringing has got a lot to do with such delicate things... Thank you!

Although I've learned to accept compliments, it used to embarass me all the time. I would always feel so uncomfortable. I don't think I ever said 'no, no, no', but I would always try to deflect the attention to somebody else. Even back to the person who gave the compliment. I think that even now, I still feel awkward accepting any.

Hi bird: I think this girls must be really sad for acting like this after a compliment. Maybe she doesn't believe they are honest words because she doesn't have a possitive perception of herself. That's sad because, even when people who are egocentric are really annoying the opposite side is also terrible. We need to accept ourselves with our pros and cons. ALVARO

To be honest,I am another person who can't take a compliment and I also hate to flatter others about something to their face,because I think I am not a decent person if I do so.In fact, people who like to praise somebody to his face often abuse him behind his back.

That lady must have a really deep insecurity issues. She's not confident about herself that's why she argue when she get a compliment but actually deep inside she feels good about it. The bad thing about this is her daughter will most probably grow up being insecure like her because her mother make her feel that she's not worthy of a compliment.

It is very difficult for many people to accept a complement. You should simply say thank you and leave it at that.

I used to be like that it came from low self esteem, feeling unworthy due to many things in my past as soon as I realize that accepting praises has nothing to do with arrogance I feel more comfortable being myself and that's when everything in my life turns out right :) I meet the right people, get the right support, surrounded by the right friends, and hopefully now will get the right training I need for the path I choose someone told me everything and everyone is perfect as is Now I understand what he's saying

To an extent I think that I can. Of course there are a lot of times where a compliment is going to completely catch me off guard a lot of the time. There are a lot of times where a compliment can completely come so out of the blue that it takes me completely off guard to say the very least. Many times, there are going to be people who are really going to be genuine with their compliments but it just comes out of nowhere where people cannot take it. Plus there are times where I feel that people are being patronizing to me when they are complimenting me. Plus there are times where they compliment me on things that I don't completely agree with that went right. Of course, I really am going to be my own worst critic a lot of times. So there are going to be a lot of times where I struggle to really think that I am going to have any success for anything. It does depend in the end, with many compliments being made.

if compliment is worth then any one should accept it,we know what we are and what we do,so if it really is for something we have done then it is better to take the compliment from any. However many try to flirt or when they are in need to something they try to do or give such compliments so that the person does fall and the concern is done by the work he or she wants.

I used to get extremely embarrassed when someone would compliment me. I never knew what to say in return. I also remember being the same way when it came to receiving gifts from people. I just felt put on the spot, and didn't know how to respond. Now I realize that a simple, "Thank you" and a smile will do. I just think some people get a bit shy and make it more complicated than it needs to be.
