She's become very successful after moving to the east coast for career opportunities in real estate development. No matter how busy she is, she always reaches out to stay connected and it just means so much that she takes the time to think of my little family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804753 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 20:21:40 +0000 cheesetomywhine 1804753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: same!</p> <p>Tuesday, I was getting ready for the day and analyzing my dress in the mirror to see if I wanted to wear it when R looks over and says "You look beautiful Mumma." Totally had to wear it and I felt so happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804732 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 20:10:49 +0000 regberadaisy 1804732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a Co worker told me she thinks I'm a really great mom and whenshe's a mother she wants to be like me. I was really flattered. </p> <p>Today a random girl at a cafe told me I'm really cute pregnant. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804650 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 19:46:51 +0000 MrsBrewer 1804650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ShootingStar: Loooove that compliment!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804495 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 19:11:02 +0000 IRunForFun 1804495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kinda weird, and not just a compliment to me, but DH and I have been going to counseling for about 6 weeks, and last week the coinselor told us we were the coolest couple he'd ever met with. He could have been lying, but it made us feel really good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804472 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 19:04:13 +0000 MrsSCB 1804472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My birthday was last weekend and my dad wrote on my Facebook wall, "When you were born, we got the greatest present." That really made me smile, especially as DH and I are gearing up to TTC our own kids :-)</p> <p>(and then my uncle commented, "It was a gift certificate to Babies 'R Us" and that made me laugh, hahaha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804439 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 18:53:14 +0000 mamimami 1804439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A random lady at Starbucks told me she could tell I was a good person. How? I have no idea!</p> <p>But seriously my mom told me once that my dad told her I really knew who I was. That is a great compliment! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804374 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 18:35:43 +0000 anonysquire 1804374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was once told that I seek out those who don't have friends or are lonely and become their friend. I really liked that :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804353 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 18:26:58 +0000 shopaholic 1804353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: awww!!! :heart: </p> <p>@Mrs. High Heels: That is such an amazing and thoughtful comment!</p> <p>Not sure the best, but when I was younger, guys would often tell me I was the "type of girl you marry" and not the type you mess around with. I thought those were always nice. These days being told that I'm a great mom because they can see how happy my daughter is, is usually a really nice one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804341 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 18:20:43 +0000 Ra 1804341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Ha! A guy once told me that he loved my clavicles. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804278 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 17:57:40 +0000 Tidybee 1804278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Someone once said to me "you're so real. What you see is what you get." It has always stuck with me especially because I value that in other people. I despise fakeness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given/page/2#post-1804264 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 17:49:44 +0000 lovehoneybee 1804264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually got a pretty great one today. A client at work told me that in the 5 years she's been coming into our office today was the first time that she felt like she was treated with genuine compassion and that I had the warmest smile and kindest eyes she'd ever seen. And then she wrote a note to my supervisor raving about how kind and helpful I'd been to her, even though it was obvious I was very busy :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1804140 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 16:56:15 +0000 Boogs 1804140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most recently, "You're all belly! It looks so cute and you look great." </p> <p>Such a nice compliment after all of the, "You're huge, are you sure it's not twins?!" comments. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803389 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 12:26:55 +0000 jhd 1803389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom has told me multiple times lately that I'm doing a great job as a mommy &amp; handling all the challenges we've had so far. This means so much to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803380 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 12:24:33 +0000 keiki_mama 1803380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not the best but certainly the most memorable, one of my coworkers told me I looked very fertile after not seeing me for several month. I was 8 months pregnant at the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803324 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 12:15:39 +0000 Arden 1803324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A US Army Colonel who was a friend of my dad's told me as a teenager that I was smart, creative, and had "that something special" and he saw me becoming Secretary of State someday. :)</p> <p>I have absolutely no desire to go into politics but that DID give me the confidence to believe I'm capable of big things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803322 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 12:15:12 +0000 MsLipGloss 1803322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most memorable: that I could be Marisa Miller's body double. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803312 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 12:10:34 +0000 Sofiel 1803312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last month I was at a friend's daughters 1st bday party and one of the party-goers (who knew my sisters) asked if I was the youngest out of us 3. It was a boost for me as I'm the oldest and 7 years older than my youngest sibling. I guess I must not look as tired as I feel! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803289 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 11:58:04 +0000 travelgirl1 1803289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: you ARE a great mom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803286 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 11:57:21 +0000 travelgirl1 1803286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was 2 weeks pp, huge, swollen and just generally gross, a woman on the subway was staring at me and when I noticed she apologized, and said I was such a natural beauty. God bless that lady, I don't care if she was lying and was really staring at what a mess I was, her kindness gave me such a boost that day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803277 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 11:53:41 +0000 DigAPony 1803277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: ha! A girl who plays scrabble! Love it. </p> <p>The one I remember most is that one of my best friends told me that she really admires my marriage and thinks my husband and I are really great together, and good for each other. That means a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803060 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 10:39:01 +0000 dagret 1803060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best: When my mom asked me how I get my shower so clean. If you knew my mother, this is huge. HUGE. </p> <p>Weirdest: An old guy at a bar told me that I looked like a girl who plays scrabble. HAHA. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1803008 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 10:22:22 +0000 loveisstrange 1803008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom told me she thought we were doing a fabulous job raising C and she thought I'm a good mother.</p> <p>I really admire my mother and I think she was a wonderful parent, so it means a lot coming from her. I really doubt what I'm doing sometimes. Validation is nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802999 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 10:20:23 +0000 Littlebit 1802999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: lol, no. Take it!!</p> <p>My step-dad, who I considered my dad, passed away suddenly a couple of years ago. One of his friends told me that he always talked super highly of me and 'loved your mind' (I guess he liked the way I dissected and thought of things? We always had good conversations). That was the best compliment I've ever gotten. For one, he never told me that. And two, I feel like people see me as this naive/dumb blonde type because I'm outgoing, very friendly, didn't graduate college, class clown type...so to have him tell people that he thought that really sticks with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802954 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 10:06:21 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1802954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was pretty sweet when some hot, young guy called me a MILF. </p> <p>Should I be ashamed that I was flattered? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802910 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:53:51 +0000 Corduroy 1802910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not THE best but I was recently assigned to a project at work and several people told me how happy they were to have me on this project because of my technical skills. That made me feel good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802883 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:43:58 +0000 cmomma17 1802883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: awwww :grin: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802877 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:42:51 +0000 cmomma17 1802877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My stepdaughter wrote me a letter for mother's day and she said "you always listen and you always care" :heart:<br /> If every child in my life feels like I listen and care, I am set! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802832 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:25:48 +0000 MrsKoala 1802832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Someone once told me that I looked like Marion Cotillard. I don't believe it but it was super nice and I'll never forget it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-best-compliment-youve-ever-been-given#post-1802772 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 09:06:52 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1802772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A couple of days ago my husband told me I'm generous and put others first. I thought that was so nice to hear, especially after hearing my stepmom tell me I'm a selfish person my entire childhood. </p>
