I like the word paramour.

Not that I could pull it off or anything. I just like it.
That's French for "Fuck Buddy", right?

Ross Perot has been there and done that.

Agreed. I don't mind hearing compliments, but I'm with you on not dealing with them very well. I always find a way to disagree. It makes me feel uncomfortable. I've tried just saying, "Oh. Thanks," with a small smile, but then I always feel like I have to return the favor. This is no good because I don't give a lot of compliments either. When I do give one, people know that I meant that shit, though.

2. Especially to that last sentence.

And when I just say "thanks," I feel like people think I'm basking in the glow of my wonderfulness. Which I probably am, but not because of his/her compliment.

Nothing is worse than having to give the fake compliment. The worst is when people show you babies and say "Isn't she the most beautiful thing?" I usually sputter a 'yes' in a Steven Wright voice. No baby is attractive at all to anyone but its relatives. Thats a rule. Sorry, but they're ugly. I only use babies as an example - that story can be applied to any variety of shings.

Worst is when someone who is objectively hideous starts telling you story about someone who is hideous in a similar fashion. You're stuck thinking "Shit, doesn't this guy who's ripping on the size of some chick's nose realize his nose could hold a couple d sized batteries?"

ETA: No, the worst is the guy who tells you a story about some crazy sex weekend or some wild date and you know he actually was home all weekend playing Doom. You're listening politely and the whole time you're feeling "Shit, this is awkward... am I acting like I believe him enough? Or does my obvious lack of belief in this story showing through?"

this happened to me just yesterday. chickenshit said nothing in response, other than to agree with the comment made, and then scurried* from the room.


*okay, not really.

Did you actually call him/her on it? I've always been dying to know what would happen if I said "Uh, Mary, you do realize you have a mug just as repulsive as the girl/guy you're ripping on, don't you?" Never had the guts.
