Nice things.

[CatandDiallo]

I'm actually gushing right now.

So, my school (along with many, many other schools) have a Facebook group called `*Insert School Name Here* Compliments` where random people will anonymously submit nice things they think about people and they will be posted to the group's wall.

I was looking around on the page, wishing that one would ever be about me (people tag your name so you get notified) and then I see this:

Wlu Compliments
Sunday
To the girl with the really short hair wearing a hairband who was waiting for the bus at ***** & ******* today at around 1pm - I would like to say you are probably one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen. Just thought you should know.

THAT'S MEEEEEE!

I was going to work on Sunday at around 1pm and I was wearing a headband and I obviously have really short hair!
That's my bus stop!


This is the nicest thing I've ever read about myself/someone has said to me. I just wanted to share!



What are some nice things people have said about you/to you that gave you a complete surprise and made you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside?

Always nice to receive unexpected compliments

My boyfriend's boss told him one day, "Brittany is one of the most intelligent people I've ever met. I have a difficult time keeping up with what she's saying sometimes." I enjoyed this because I never found her to be lacking in intelligence, but it did make me think she must not know many intelligent people.

People should be telling you that all the time. The problem is when you cross a certain threshold of attractiveness, people are too nervous to tell you things like that. You get the 'I'm not worthy' guys who think it and don't say it because they're scared, then you get the 'I'm the boss' guys who think girls dig guys that are jerks to them.

Trust me - they're all thinking it.


EDIT: and to contribute, my girlfriend tells me I'm one of the smartest people she's ever known all the time, which is a huge compliment coming from her because I consider her to be one of the smartest people I've ever known.

Guelph has that compliments page too! You definitely deserve it

Nicest thing someone has said to me is at the end of my summer research job in September I had a performance review, and both my bosses told me that I impressed the heck out of them and they've never seen someone so comfortable in the field and identifying fish before. Then they told me about all the "tests" they were giving me and how I did so well that they are giving me a promotion this summer. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face It feels nice to be told that you are great at what you love!

I would move to Canada for the job you have.

Get me an internship?!

If you become a Canadian citizen I'll pull some strings

My boyfriend has told me several times that I'm the most selfless person he's ever met, to a fault sometimes in his opinion. That makes me feel really good! I'd rather hear that I'm a good person than a good looking person any day! Of course, I'm a woman and like to be complimented on my physical attributes too, but for me there is nothing like hearing that I've made a positive impact on someone's life.

Cat, you are a beautiful girl! I'm really surprised you don't get this kind of thing all the time!

And thank you for starting this thread! It's so much better than, "What do you hate? Discuss!"

Not to bring negativity to the thread, but I don't get many compliments. I'm a real bad road rage person, for example last week I punched off a guys mirror for parking in the middle of two spaces, in a parking garage with limited parking.

So, people don't really find reasons to compliment me. Although I was told that I would always have a job at the place of employment I'm currently back at. That's a good feeling, knowing you've left a such a positive impact that even though you're leaving, you can always come back if need be. I also always got a "oh, you're here tonight. Thank god." comments when I would show up to work. That's positive too right?

Ha Ha! That first part cracked me up! Everyone has something to offer, no one has everything. Sounds like you're a responsible employee....who no one has the balls to park next to
Like I said, you can't be everything!
