My therapist taught me to say "thank you for the compliment" even if I don't mean it.

my ego defense tells me that people complimenting me are just being nice and they don't really think that about me

Ok I hear you, Presro… but what DO I say when someone compliments me? 🤣🫣 “thank you *awkward smile*”????

I find myself rejecting compliments a lot because in the past they have been accompanied by demands which leaves me feeling manipulated. So now I mostly ignore their opinions of me

I don’t like compliments because they were always jokes growing up. I genuinely cannot differentiate between something genuinely nice and backhanded now.

what if when someone compliments you, you automatically think it's a manipulation tactic?

What if someone says “that’s a nice shirt” then I say “yea that’s why I bought it” 😐

I was taught in my 20s that saying thank you to a compliment didn’t mean you’re agreeing, you’re essentially saying thank you for being kind enough to say that

I don’t like compliments because when I was 13, a friend’s mom told me in the most narrow-eyed, appraising way that I was pretty, and when I looked at the floor awkwardly, she made me say thank you.

I feel like we’re all just rolling along with these egos we acquired when we were young playing the part and never questioning. Almost like robots.

I have a third, “they are only complimenting me because they want something from me.” Big time suspicion.

Yes, but it’s important to also think more systemically - who is socialised to be seen as “modest”, why, and what happens when they aren’t.
