i hate compliments. i think its for kids. its something you say to encourage kids or give them an incentive to do it again or improve themselves. if one appreciates something ive done, a simple "thank you" is enough. i dont want to hear anything more. compliments annoy me. i dont know why. sometimes i feel im being made fun of when someone gives a compliment to me (maybe its paranoia for me to think a compliment is being said in a sarcastic manner. sarcasm is a distinct human trait and its really a peculiar human creation). most of the time i dont think a compliment is due to me. thats why i hate it. and thats why i think the person is being sarcastic.
sure its nice to hear a compliment but i prefer to hear it on times which i think really matters. like, i did something really big or legendary (Barney Stinson just makes the word sound interesting). to have a compliment thrown around so easily makes the person giving it appear insincere to me. its like engaging in small talk, i hate it and its a waste of time for me. id rather have the person shut up and not say anything than be told compliments which sound like big fat lies. or even if its true, to hear it after doing something insignificant, the compliment has really no value. now i understand why some people reply "its nothing really" because its really nothing and not worthy of compliments. criticism is much more useful. so a "thank you" or something as simple would suffice.
