What is the nicest compliment you've ever received?

As the title says. What's the nicest compliment you've ever received and who said it to you?

For me it was when my crush said I was such a good brother to her. Don't you think it's a lovely thing to say? :h:

We had this fair about a month ago. Some random lady just approached me. And she was like I know this might sound a bit awkward but my husband and I find you the most handsome boy in the whole city. It was really awkward

thanks random old person :biggrin:
Hmm this is a really difficult question to answer but probably when I first made friends with an old friend of mine, she told me how great my personality is and that I was a really humble person. Idk, but that just made me happy and it stuck with me.
Anything to do with how I look. I mean I've had other compliments, but we like in a shallow world, so those stuck to me the most :
It wasn't said to me but it was about me: my PhD supervisor told one of my best friends that I write better first drafts of work than she (supervisor) does :lolwut: :confused: :dontknow: :eek: :headfire:

Bear in mind that my supervisor is a Professor, so a fully-fledged academic, and is a good 15-17 years older than me! I was just like WOW when I heard what she'd said :redface:

Good thing she didn't say it to me though, I probs would have been too stunned and said something ungracious/ungrateful like U WOT M8??!!

:redface:
"Wow you can take a punch"

"We think you've worked really hard and tried your best, but it just seems as if you're not getting and understanding the material. We think it'd be best if you spent your time elsewhere instead of physics."

in other words

"You suck, stop doing physics you're wasting your time."

Both my physics teachers and every other physics teacher my physics teacher talked to.
Compliments about my makeup and outfit :redface:
"I wish more guys were like you"

You should be very proud of that :smile:

I think for me most recently when a customer told me that I'd handled the customers complaint who was in front of them brilliantly, considering I used to really struggle with confrontation, I was very pleased someone had noticed how well I was handling it.
