Fishing for compliments..

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

You know when people go humf well I’m not gonna do this now because you’ve said that, but deep down you know they wanna and you know they’re gonna.

Or the people that slag off their own features or attributes so people can go aww noo you’re not you’re amazing.

Call me a cunt yes but I never ever fish for compliments I’ll give myself that. I even say do not blow smoke up my arse. I don’t need it.

Mad isn’t it for someone who’s supposed to be insecure, you’ll never catch me putting myself down to get compliments.

Always find it strange how people are more comfortable with people who don’t think highly of themselves than those who do. Why is that?

Even the negative stuff on threads. Like in a game or something.

“Nobody will message me”

“Nobody fancies me” blah blah.

Makes me not want to wink or message. I just see it as attention seeking.

I think a bit of self deprecation can be charming.

I have been known to compliment fish a teeny bit. On occasion.

It's all in the delivery.

I'm a fat cunt, there's no getting away from that, and I'll quite happily say it.

I'm not putting myself down, I'm telling it how it is.

What gets me is people saying nooo you're not fat at all.

Oh come on, if I'm not fat what's all this lard I'm lugging around?

People do it often, whether it's learned behaviour or they genuinely believe that they're not x,y or z. It does make me eyeroll slightly when people post it on certain threads because you know they're fishing and that gets awarded by welldo'ers.

I think there's a line between being honest in how you view yourself, being full of yourself and putting others down and constantly seeking outside approval.

Love fishing Annie won’t lie but not that many on here know what I look like!

Regardless I still push buttons and look for compliments !!!

It’s simple who doesn’t like a compliment?

It's ok to love yourself but sometimes it's clear there is nothing but arrogance. And it's ok to dislike yourself but sometimes it's uncomfortable to be around when you know it's not genuine.

I don't particularly feel more comfortable around those who are loudly insecure and I don't dislike those who are confident in themselves. I think there's a fine line somewhere.

I'm not sure if that makes sense.

Sometimes I'll mention something I don't find so great to show my acceptance of it, not looking for compliments. Eg. I'm going grey and I can't be bothered dying it. I don't need anyone to say they love greying hair for me to be ok with it. I used to be paranoid about having a big nose but then realised some people like it, and everyone knows big nose.. Big tissues

A lot of people are insecure and will feel uncomfortable in the presence of people who they perceive who possess attributes they wish they had, whether that be confidence, a better figure, etc.

It’s a normal thing since we all like to feel good about ourselves. Unfortunately due to the way that society tends to work, that is all too often through comparison with others. Or if you aren’t so nice, through putting others down. Being a normal thing doesn’t make it right, just normal.

Be your best self. Own who you are. Accept others for who they are and avoid comparing!

Jesus you wont believe ive actually been roasted for deliberately trying to be polite when i spoke to a girl once, saying she was curvy was apparently insensitive of me and i shouldve just called her fat

What kind of a mind fuck is that?!

Same here. What I may look like to *you* and what I feel like to me are totally different.

I'm a short arse with small saggy tits and cellulite, a goofy tooth and I'm hairy like a wookie. Wear goggles if ya want but that's the truth and I can take the piss outta myself for it.

I do however recognise the qualities about me that I like, it's about balance. I'm human, we all are and no cunt is perfect.

I have insecurities I think most people do. But mine can’t be triggered by anything on here because they’re childhood abandonment issues. I’m not worried if any forum people are gonna leave. Yet it’s banded about that I say certain things or put others down because I’m insecure. I don’t need to dull anyone else’s light to try and make mine shine brighter. For some reason I believe I am bright enough on my own and that sometimes I just say things cos I make myself laugh or they’re true or it’s just a thought I’ve had and wonder if people feel the same.

It's about attitude not confidence. Confident people know who they are and don't feel the need to convince people of that. These people don't shout from the rooftops their greatest qualities because they don't need acceptance from others.

People who see theirselves as superior and put others down to bring theirselves up. Those are the people not to be comfortable around.. not because they tell people how great they are, it's because their arseholes.

okay, gotcha. You rile some ppl up here (and irl? Be interesting know). You could be the innocent party and it's all their issues. Or it could be you are doing something you are unaware of. It appears you are pretty confident it's the former. Question is, how open are you to considering it could be something you are doing?

(That's my thoughts. Will leave that there as these threads can become a mob hunt!)

Nowhere

I’m comfortable in myself - i think that’s all you need to be. If you are then nothing anyone else says really matters because your self worth is what matters. There are plenty here that sadly arent that confident and what is said can have devastating effects on their self confidence. For my part I always try to see The positives in people without being insincere. If someone is having a tough day and there are several posts today which are like this - I think trying to be positive with them can only help - be who you are - it’s good enough.

That’s different SD. If I think someone is genuinely struggling I’ll message them privately, as you know. I won’t do it in public. I meant the people who do it just to get attention. x

I was going to write something long and meaningful but then I didn't see the point.

Some people like compliments, others think so highly of themselves they don't need them at all and others couldn't care either way.

If you go both ends of the scale, both can be difficult to be around because one already thinks the sun shines out of her arse and the other can be like trying to make fire in space.

This makes sense in my head, hope this helps

I think people look for reassurance in numerous different ways. Be it about the way they look, their intellect how they react to different situations they encounter in life.

I may seek reassurance about my looks at times, but my decision making never, occasionally my intelligence from people I deem far more bright than me.

We all have different things we are confident or not about. If some reassurance helps people let them crack on it doesn't harm anyone.

Or the people that slag off their own features or attributes so people can go aww noo you’re not you’re amazing.

Call me a cunt yes but I never ever fish for compliments I’ll give myself that. I even say do not blow smoke up my arse. I don’t need it.

Mad isn’t it for someone who’s supposed to be insecure, you’ll never catch me putting myself down to get compliments.

Always find it strange how people are more comfortable with people who don’t think highly of themselves than those who do. Why is that?"

That was a lot of different things all in one post!

I do the first one a lot, especially of its my mum telling me to do things lol dunno why, just my petulant child coming out.

I only slag myself off when I know it's true. I know I'm not a beautiful person, I know I am fat (or have fat if you will). I'm clever to know when people are blowing smoke up my arse.

Insecurities aren't always about how you portray yourself. It's often how you project on to others, for instance feeling embarrassed when they do a popular dance on a major social media app feeling alsorts of good about themselves

For the last one I guess it gives them a feeling of superiority.

By *ea monkeyMan  over a year ago

Manchester (he/him)

Personally I don’t talk myself down to get compliments, they make me uncomfortable. It’s because I see myself, faults and all, and it would be disingenuous to not acknowledge that.

I might be slim and athletic now but I wasn’t always and it can be hard to shake that self image as well at times.

It’s easy to be derisory towards those that don’t share a positive self image, especially if we don’t understand their thought process but dismissing it out of hand as intentionally ‘fishing’ can be just as toxic as the fishing itself.

Confidence is sexy, yes but arrogance isn’t. Confidence is a quiet assurance and arrogance is a loud assertion.

Confidence is usually born from self awareness of ones abilities and limits, with a touch of humility. Owning your limits isn’t fishing, it’s being humble

How do you know that somebody is doing it for attention and who is genuinely struggling? Surely we don't know who is genuinely struggling.

There’s a lot of people that don’t wanna hurt someone’s feelings I suppose as people can feel uncomfortable by telling the truth….which does lead to complications later down the line…but the then and now can be awkward situations that some people don’t like to be in!

And let’s face it when you’re saying these things about yourself you’re obviously in a shit head space so a compliment from a stranger might have a positive impact on the mental well-being!

The truth hurts sometimes and not many people are willing to give it or take it!

Insecurities are a part of everyone….some want to show them…others hide behind bravado and confidence!

There’ll always be those that fish and there’ll always be those that don’t….people are different and I think we have to accept that!

Everyone deals with life differently unless you know someone you don't know their life

some people don't have much confidence and need other people's acceptance and attention to help them build selves up

If they need to fish for them why should that bother other people? If it makes that person feel better about themselves and isn't hurting anyone one else

Some people are full of confidence and don't need compliments also nothing wrong with that as long as it not used to push other people down

This is a very good point and personally not one I (mr) had thought about. Certainly food for though.

I suppose equally not all that have confidence are comfortable discussing things so openly either. It is a thin line. And as a ‘society’ having the ability to discuss things in wide public forums still relatively new (past few decades only) so some stills see it as ‘showing off’ whether it is saying ‘look at me I’m at no1’ here or acknowledging a professional award on linkedin. Modesty and self consciousness about some aspects might cloud how we view those using publicity or seeking validation for other reasons. And I’m sure confidence is not universal either. Some can be confident in certain speck (e.g public speaking) but would cringe at a beach photo!

There’s certainly not one size fits all approach.

Didn't you start a thread a day or two ago simply informing everybody you were no. 1 in Hot Photos?

Yeah but I haven’t done another thread to say I’m number 1 again today. I’m just do it when I wanna wind people up.

"Think there's a presumption from a negative starting point here. Why assume they're fishing for compliments? It could be a comment without that intention. Misanthropy at its finest.

How is it misanthrope?

I thought that. Wrong word

°

It Is the wrong word.

Speculatively fishing for compliments is (sometimes) a type of approbation and narcissism rolled into one.

What about the underlying premise?

Do you mean the underlying rationale for why that person is asking/expecting compliments?

I read IS's comment about misanthropy to be about the OP, not those "fishing for compliments"."

.

As did I, that it was in reference to the OP's cynicism in her presumption.

Why do you feel the need to "wind people up", if you don't mind my asking?

I'm curious and not being facetious or sarcastic.

Honestly I don't really care of people are fishing for compliments. If they want them and people are happy to give them then so what? As long as they don't get the hump with me as I'm not very good at picking up on hints.

Some people can only feel good when they make others feel less good. People might not fish for compliments, but that doesn't stop them feeding off other negative energy.

Do you mean you like to laugh at others' expense? Do you feel empowered in some way by it, in that they are 'stupid' for being wound up so easily and you have the power to do that?

Is that the sort of feeling you get from it?

I'm not trying to belittle of challenge you. I'd really like to understand why some people do this and seeing as you're open about your feelings in general, I think you could give me some insight.

I was cock stamped once. Was sleeping and my partner at the time slapped me across my cheek. Had a prominent red bell end shaped mark on my cheek.

Well he’d made me real chips with tesco mild chicken curry in a tin which was my favourite meal at that time. So it was kinda like a dinner bell (end)

She's unable to answer but she did ask if I could ask you to stop taking things out of context and stop trying to be psychotherapist.

It's not out of context though. And there is a good point made between the discrepancies of: I'm on top of hot pics thread and what this one states about not fishing.

OP said “wind up”. Belittling was never mentioned to be fair. It might be a bit peculiar - but I read it as ‘banter’ and nothing more sinister. The Welsh are known for darkish humour and relentless pisstake. Never ever fall asleep in a rugby tour bus!

Thank you for your comment by proxy.

The lady above has addressed the matter of its context, which answers the OP's comment about relevance and context.

I was asking the OP about a specific comment she made in a public post. She needn't have answered and as I had stated, if she was unable or unwilling to do so, would anyone else afflicted by the same behavioural trait be able to help me understand why they would take pleasure in winding others up, to have a laugh at others' expense.

The OP seems to have taken this rather personally, something she expects others not to do when, in her threads, she uses terms that demeans them rather than a more carefully phrased tone.

My apologies to the OP if she felt I was being a psychotherapist rather than merely trying to understand a behaviour that I find wholly unattractive. It is through understanding that we can begin a dialogue without belittling or demeaning another.

As someone else has said above, be who you are. I agree but it needn't be at the expense of another.
