[quote=Anonymous]On the compliments, if it’s hyperbolic, completely insincere, manipulative or plain weird then yeah it’s bad. Before the old rumps throw their hands in the air “well I just can’t win” take a second, step back and realize that simply acting normal is what works. 1. Remember that you are a visitor. Behave the way you would with a friend or coworker. 2. Treat your anxiety. Many elders develop anxiety but rather than treat it, they simply dump it on everyone around them. 3. Widen your own social circle, volunteer, join organizations, host and attend book clubs, etc. If your only interaction is with your spouse and the retail clerks, you are going to get weird and not no how to behave.
