[quote=Anonymous]Like insults, compliments say more about the giver than the recipient. It's the giver's impression of the recipient that is expressed (sincerely or not), and less about what the recipient has actually done, said or thought. People who can't take a compliment have trouble accepting that absence of control over another person's opinion of them. Just like people who are terribly upset or offended if they feel insulted. If the compliment giver means it sincerely, the only acceptable response is thank you. It doesn't matter that you don't feel worthy, or have negative inner thoughts, or feel the assessment is entirely inaccurate. You can explain this to the other person, but it doesn't take away from their initial feeling of admiration. [/quote]
