What is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you?
A former work colleague of mine once described me as "crispy on the outside with a warm, gooey center."
@Snickers77 Actually, this was a male and he said it in the context of how people who I worked with at the time may have perceived me as unapproachable or having a hard shell, but when they got to know me... =]
I would wife the shit out of you if I was straight.
I think we're done here, this one takes it.
Nice!
I get "you're so calm, cool and patient. I don't know how you do it". A lot. It's nice to hear. I have 3 kids and a troop of 15 girls. Now I don't always feel all those things... But it's nice to know people notice.
I had someone recently tell me they admire my strength and determination. That was great to hear too.
I'm not going to give the name, but some one here sent me a message.
"I would like you to know that I always think your responses are kind, well adjusted and well thought out".
That was very nice, and very special to me.
3-5 marriage proposals/requests to bear my children resulting from a witty comment or playing music. 10 or 20 seriously touching compliments from ladies getting to know me, varying from intelligence to character n humor to looks, and being looked at with a primal hunger in a couple ladies eyes. Too bad no one was serious in the long term, but it feels nice to hear.
A bunch of people have told me that I’m a good man. They’ve phrased it in different ways such as that I have a “heart of gold” and so on.
Honestly, my favorite thing that anyone has ever said about me is that I’m a worthy dialectic opponent because I speak in logic and reason
That I'm complex woman. There was two persons which said me that and one of them was an important person in my life and in society.
"You are a beautiful person". That was a week of sex... she was "sex on the go"... and so we did but she really meant what she said. She was on vacation and all she wanted to do was love... I lost 10 pounds... but she really found me a nice, able 19 year old islander that "she will always remember with a smile". NYC smarts of her. Still works for me. After all those decades. But the woman that asks "help me undress" nowdays gets the "Nicest Award".
Well not quite said to me but my eldest son to his wife. She was trying to make out I was wrong on this or that and why would should I have any better idea than her, what did I know. He said, "Actually my Dad knows his stuff from all his researching and he's usually right on most things". The silence hit the floor like a brick. Cheshire cat time, Thanks Son. I had been running an awareness project for years, LOL I love the what did
I know.
Not sure if this counts but it was baby babble from my months old niece. Significant because she was literally terrified of all men. Would cry hysterically as soon as one walked in the door. Until that day, the only man she didnt fear was her father, my brother. That day she chose me too as I held her in my arms for the first time. It is one of my fondest memories
“Life’s a battle you make worth fighting.”
I have been a very public figure, so nothing really stands out to me, so I will tell you one of the weirdest things instead... A week before my 40th birthday, I had all my hair cut off - that didn't work out so well, so I grew it back out... By the time it got be back almost to my shoulders, I was at a bus stop when some dude asked "has anyone ever told you that you look like Kurt Cobain?"... So, I asked "You mean before, or after he blew his brains out, what ARE you asking me!?" Lol. He went away
"You have the skin of a white man but the heart of a Native."
This probably doesn't make sense without the long back story to this quotation.
