Me: *sigh* You're the best kisser in the universe.
TH: Awwwwww.....(feigning modesty)
Me: Well, you are!
TH: Awwwwww.....(feigning modesty + coyness...... seriously?)
Me (because I'm an encouraging wife who supports change and growth in a spouse): Just shut up and say thank you.
TH: You say the sweetest things. And then you say something else.
Ain't love grand?
Have you ever discounted a compliment? Just say "thank you" instead!
Have you been there?
Yup... sure have. Both DH and I are bad at taking compliments. Trying, trying, trying... ;-)
ReplyDeleteNot so great at taking them, but the girls at work have tried to beat it into my head to simply say, "thank you" and then go squirm in private. :)
ReplyDeleteHave I been on the receiving end of a great kiss? Oh Yes! *blushing, fanning myself*
ReplyDeleteHave I discounted a compliment? All my life... *sadly sighing* But I do mumble a "thank you", eventually.
My husband's usual reply to my daily compliments is "you're shot". :-)
ReplyDeleteTry me. (for the compliment, I mean. Or the kiss. )
ReplyDeleteI do have a problem accepting compliments. I usually pass a compliment off in a way that compliments others but not me. If that makes sense. Example: "That's a nice shirt." "Oh, this thing? My mother bought it for me. I trust her taste."
ReplyDeleteBob, you're such a flirt! Stay tuned for a surprise just for you!
ReplyDeleteSometimes it takes practice. It gets easier....promise.
ReplyDeletePractice, Jules. Besides, you're a rock star! What's not to compliment?
ReplyDeleteIn the words of Yoda, "Do or do not....there is no try." And Yoda was a pretty smart mofo. Just sayin'. ;)
ReplyDeleteYay for awesome kisses!!
ReplyDeleteUh oh! lol Thanks for stopping by!
