How to Properly Accept a Compliment

Thursday, January 24, 2013


Today's topic is a gentle reminder and may seem like a relatively obvious point for some, but you would be surprised at the amount of women who still when offered a compliment, brush it off as if it's no big deal or instead share what they don't like about their new haircut, home, career, etc. This is not humility lovelies, rather it is disrespectful and a bit of a slap in the face to the one who chose to pay you the compliment. A smile along with a simple "Thank you" are all that is required. :)

Even if you're truly not fond of your new bangs, the necklace your significant other bought you or the way the paint color turned out in your kitchen, if someone has taken the time to pay you a compliment, accept it graciously. It can be insulting to some, as if you are telling them that they don't have good taste, if they like something that you find flaws with.

A little something to think about the next time someone catches you off guard with a kind compliment.
