Do you blush when you receive a compliment?

As a child, I used to receive all sorts of compliments and my little cheeks would light up like rudolphs nose at christmas time. As an adult I don't respond the way I used to as a kid. But my kids blush everytime they receive compliments, which in turn makes me or my wife blush. What about you, when someone gives you a compliment, do you blush?

I'm not too comfortable being focused on or having attention drawn to me - even when it's good attention I feel a little awkward. I think I do have a tendency to blush when people compliment me. One girl at work blushes at the drop of a hat, it's very cute. There's something so innocent and sweet about a good full on blush!

Hi there Hdjohnson. I think it really depends on the compliment... If it is really something special, it's sure to make me blush, but if it is just a word, that i may have heard it before, it's not such a great deal, so i will just say thanks.

yes, i do! i can't really hide it but it seems that i really appreciate the compliments they said to me. in a way, people who compliments me will also admire me for appreciating them by blushing.

When i recieved compliments i just smiled, i nevre blush coz i am tan so there's no pinkish or reddish checks appears over my tan skin face lolz. But you can see it in my eyes that it is twinkling because of too much appreciation and my big smile looks like it's until my ears.
