My grand daughter has said for years that I am the only man who has never disappointed her.

That's amazing

I can't say... Because it will sound like bragging.

But compliments, if sincere, are food for the soul. So I often offer sincere compliments to my friends and family.

@Donotbelieve

That is very nice of you.

Now I'm blushing. (Hugs.)

@Donotbelieve

Ha ha!

Who will know that as very young I scared people and later it turn out to be best compliment a man wishes can receive out of the bag because there is no substitute, really. Ironic, ironic.

A person once told me that I was kind and genuine, and he was honored to know me. I was shocked, and touched. It was very sweet.

"I'm proud of you."

I work in a nutrition dept at a hospital. I had someone this past week, find me thru mutual friends (small town) and thank me for the kind words I had offered two years earlier. It was humbling. To take the time to thank me, for something I felt was so simple to give, after so long really touched my heart. Her mom was hospitalized, while I don't remember the interaction, as it was regular for me, I guess I went out of my way to offer her comforting words, which stayed with her. Best compliment I have received by far, being thanked for my empathy and compassion was huge to me.

That makes life so worthwhile!

When my kids tell me how proud they are of me for what I've made of my life post divorce. How I have stayed strong and not compromised. Also, when someone on here tells me how I've helped them, that just makes me teary. I like to build people and encourage them. We all need someone in our corner giving us encouragement.

In a different note.... all my 3 children do something with music, sing, play and dance. None thank their mother. In my family I am the "legendary artistic uncle".

One of the best was that someone told me that they felt my style of communicating and argumentation is like Sam Harris’ style.

And this person meant it as a compliment.
