Today, a guy told me I "kind of look like a girl" if he looked at me from the right angle. Well, I am a girl, and this is the closest thing to a compliment that I've gotten in years. FML

Okay, this is about to sound really dumb. But unless someone happened to have the same thing happen to them and happened to post it on FML the same day as I, I'm the OP. I'm unsure because of the fact that it says Australia and Anonymous. Hmm. To explain things a little more: he was totally kidding. We joke around like this a lot. I wasn't offended, until I realised I haven't received an actual compliment in years. We had been talking about how his parents normally believe that he's dating any girl he speaks to, except me. I responded by saying , "Oh, so I don't look like a girl?" I wasn't fishing for compliments, in case you were wondering. (I'd also like to say thank you to anyone who commented anything like "I bet you're beautiful". Reading the comments made my day.) I just said it as a joke. He replied, "Kind of, from the right angle." It wasn't meant to offend me, but it did make my day a pretty bad when I thought about it too much. Oh well, he didn't mean any harm. I also don't dress like a guy, and don't have a short haircut. I also wear makeup. So I don't believe I have many "manly" features.

I hope you looked at his angle and kicked him there.

You and your friend are silly. :P Looks like my assumptions were totally wrong. Ha ha! But just because you don't get complimented much doesn't mean you're not attractive. Most people feel awkward giving compliments out loud. Doesn't mean they're not thinking them. :)

It's a start then maybe you can more after that...

Just for anyone who is reading this now and would like to know, I am no longer speaking to this person. He showed me his true colors and they weren't the greatest, and our friendship had a bit of a messy ending that I will not speak about because it is not something I'd like to have out on the internet, but no, it had nothing to do with anything romantic and had to do more with rumours. Just in case anyone happens to read this!

You're beautiful and never let some butt-licker like this make you believe anything but. You ARE a beautiful woman. I made an account solely so I could tell you this.

I am honored that you made an account to tell me that. I truly appreciate it.

I work with all men in a meat dept AND have to wear big sweat shirts a ball cap and a long white meat coat and I get the "excuse me sir?!" all the time
