1 – World Compliment day
1 Mar 2023 03:54 pmDo you think there is still a place in the modern world for unsolicited compliments?
Yes, of course! I have American friends who say they get compliments several times a day, but I'd say several times a year is the norm here, so I think it's a cultural thing; we're a pretty reserved lot. Because I think they make people happy, I do make an effort to compliment people, often strangers and usually women (hey, they need it more!), and judging by their surprise and pleasure, it's still rare here.
What is it like where you live?
