My friends and family tell me how beautiful I am...and I'm not fishing for compliments when I say that I don't believe them. I think they feel like it's an obligation to tell me.

I sometimes make people compliments without meaning them! Just to avoid being rude.

How about you? Are your compliments honest?

For the guy, if you tell your girlfriend that she's beautiful...do you really mean it? Because I don't even believe him!

Always. It's a waste of time to compliment someone if you don't mean it.

Yeah. For the most part. The only compliments that I lie about is when one of my best friends wears her ugly shoes and she'll ask Cait, Dave, and I if we like them. And we're all like, "Yeah, those are cute, where did you get them?" And she'll tell us. Then we're all, "Wow, those are hideous." But, I mean, it's not like we're being mean about it. If she doesn't ask out opinion, we don't say anything. But, yeah. That's pretty much the only time that I ever falsly compliment someone.

I'm always honest when I compliment my girlfriend. Except she never believes me because she thinks she's unattractive and says that other people think she's unattractive. Soooooo.....

I'm completely honest, thought. :)

I try to find something good about everyone regardless if they have natural beauty or not.  If someone is wearing a new sweater I tell them how nice it is.  If their hair looks good, I tell them.  If they do something exceptional, I tell them.  When I do this I am not lying.

My gf is the most beautiful person I have ever seen in my life and I tell her often.  However I wouldn't have to say a thing because she tells me she sees it in my eyes.  I adore her!

Mostly yeah, although sometimes I do say things to make people feel better about themselves.
 

 This makes every compliment you've ever paid me fall through.

 


No, they were genuine.
I'm honest on the net.

I'm one of those brutally honest people, so when I compliment someone, I mean it.

I do mean them, everyone is beautiful in some way or another.

  That's bullshit. Some people are extremely ugly.


But they might have an attractive personality.

And you'll honestly say, "Oh boy, your personality is quite the looker..."  


No.

I'm not talking about judging on someone's looks.

I'm talking about when you get to know them and they actually are a nice person and have a nice personality.
