"You're a very intelligent boy and you're gonna do great in life"

Is that even a compliment? The prettiest girl of the class said it to mt in eight grade (a decade ago). That's the more recent comment that I can consider as a compliment. The the very most of the rest of the time I've pretty much been the Invisible Man to girls.

So "one thing you were told that it gives you strength, encouragement, and hope in your lives, and that it reminds you that you can be good enough for someone out there"?

Not even close from what I remember.

To start off, Courage is awesome.

Now that is some cool shit. Wish I heard things like that more often

Fuck it who cares, at least those people had enough interest in you to actually tell you something good. Take it how it comes.

Well I guess there's been a few things... one time in 9th grade in perhaps May or June, I was wearing short shorts. A girl who was sitting behind me in class just randomly tells me that I looked sexy in them or something like that, I don't remember the exact words.

Yeah.. I was taken by surprise and of course being very LS, could say nothing.

I had a few other instances throughout High School ( Going into College this August ) where girls have said things that caused me to go red or even start to sweat. All I can think about in situations like that, at the time, is to find a way out of there to rid myself of the extreme anxiety as quickly as possible. Reflecting back on them, though, I suppose it's something. Whether they were serious or not, I guess it beats being a ghost 100% of the time. The thing was that since I barely know any girls, I did not know those girls at all. It doesn't seem natural for them to say such things to someone who they've never even spoken to before unless they were doing it as a joke.

I have only been complimented once by a girl. I was a freshman in college and we were in a group along with another guy. We had to find certain commonalities between us. She said, "We are all good-looking." Not so direct.

I've heard "your cute" and "your a great person" from a bunch of girls.

I recall a girl once telling me "You're really nice once one get to know you" or something like that. That was a really long time ago though. When I was like 12. And I doubt that she meant anything romantic by it lol.
Apart from that I never speak to any women. There are no women where I study(almost), and apart from the weekends I'm alone. So basically the only time I could meet some girls would be when I go drinking with my friends in the weekends. But I can't. Too much anxiety bullshit. I used to have female friends and acquaintances, but not any more. Not that they think I'm an asshole or anything, I just don't see them. They weren't that close either.

I was probably better looking when I was younger than I used to tell myself because I got a few complements etc. I haven't received any for 5 years or more now.

Me and a group of girls approaching each other on the street
Them: "Hi, how are you?"
Me
Them: "You're looking fine" *all laugh*

I have been told I was cute. But that a while ago, and I don't if they meant attractive-cute or fluffy-bunny-tails-cute. Haven't had much informal contact with women these last few years.

If that counts as compliment... or insult disguised as compliment...
Public discussion. Girl says, 'there are totally no good guys here, all so lame, so airheaded jerks, so self-centered, unserious, not nice at all... blah, blah'. Another: 'Well, there is always IoriYagami, a totally nice guy.' A FUCKING AVALANCHE of whole 20+ class laughter ensues. I pretend I did not feel upset.

Actually, now that I think more on it, the compliment(?) I have gotten by a female (not a girl), was from my Women Writer's professor. She called out my name, I answered and she looked in my direction in surprise and replied, "Oh, I thought you were a girl." Not sure if that should ahve been taken as a compliment or snide remark. Another was not from a woman, but a casting director, from a pool of 20 or so, including a blonde Ukranian guy, commented only once on any of our looks: mine. He said, "You have nice eyes."

Sound like complements to me, althoug of course I wasn't there

In no particular order in which these events occurred.

1. I was on a carnival cruise ship. I was right out of high school. A girl about my age on the ship called my "cute"- although not directly to me, she was talking to other people. But she wasn't quiet, so I could hear her saying it clearly, and it was obvious she was talking about me. A few days later on the same cruise ship I was playing the Nintendo Wii in a hangout place on the ship. She asked if she could play with me, and I said yes. We talked a little bit, but not much. I knew she liked me, but I didn't know what to talk to her about. Further more... and this is where I was wrong: I didn't find her very attractive because her face was covered with acne. Also, she lived in New York and I lived in Texas. So I just forgot about her. If I knew what I was doing, I'd have got her Facebook or something. Acne goes away after a few years, and who knows? If we chatted on Facebook for a few years something may have happened eventually.

2. A girl wrote "your eyes only" on a piece of paper when I was in high school. She left her phone number on that paper. I never called. As to why? At the time, because I thought I could afford to be picky. But now, it's because I think I was an idiot. I guess the thing was though, that girl didn't even know me. At all. I just wish she would have talked to me and try to get to know me before just leaving her number like that.

3. There was a girl my Sophomore year of high school that liked me. She even flat out told me. I ignored her though, because I knew she was dating a different guy, and I didn't want to get involved with problems. However, a few months after that guy broke up with him, and she still flirted with me. I mean, sure I'm terrible with knowing when a girl likes me but with her it was so obvious. Her friends would tease her every time I happened to come into the room and she asked me to go to Starbucks with her. I ignored her after the break up, because I THOUGHT a different girl liked me, and for some reason I liked that other girl a lot more than I liked her. It is to be noticed that the girl I THOUGHT liked me, turned out to be a lesbian.

Only two. One girl remarked that I had a good backside. Another said she could listen to me for hours on tape because of my really deep voice.
