I'm 32, and was married for three years and together with my ex-husband for almost five years.

Of course it's nice to get compliments, but sometimes it's pretty easy to tell when they're not sincere. If it's going to seem like a compliment made because someone feels they need to give you a compliment, then I'd rather go without!


I had an ex-boyfriend who used to give me compliments all the time and I could tell he was sincere because of his expressions and the variety of things he complimented me on, so that was great.

If someone compliments my appearance and I'm not feeling so good about it that day, it makes me feel uncomfortable.

I guess it depends.
