What's the oddest compliment you have received, or the oddest situation in which you have received a compliment.
I had a medical check up a little while ago for something very minor that involved me holding my breath. The nurse doing the test at one point said to me 'You have impressive lung capacity!' |

A volunteer who I used to work closely with in my 20's:
"You're very clever, but you keep it hidden most of the time. That's very cunning as men don't like intelligent women".
He honestly thought I'd be flattered. |

"I had my midwife tell me I was really boring at our first meeting. I'd never smoked, done drugs, drank or anything else risky. I took it as a compliment  "
Mine told me I was a robot as my blood pressure never changed during my entire pregnancy. It changed ever so slightly during childbirth. |

The fact that a few women from Fab have been amenable in meeting me has been a compliment of sorts. The fact that some of the women forum-dwellers have not baulked at meeting me has been the oddest of compliments. |

When I went for a blood test, they were getting me ready to draw blood and the person doing said "oooooh that's a good vein!". I didn't know how to really respond   |

Flutter your eyelashes then drop your gaze in a coquettish manner, obvs. |

That's so depressing - that guys would think that and that someone would think that was a compliment. |

We can practice at MLS so you're not ill-prepared at your next blood-taking appointment. I'll bring a tourniquet. |

"I was told the other week I'm actually quite likeable in person 
What a prick! I hope you gave them a good dressing down.
What do you say to someone like that"
Words would be wasted. Just use their toothbrush to scrub under the toilet rim. |

I was told once that I wasn't as obviously pretty as my sister, but her beauty would fade and my more unusual look would shine and last into old age.. way to insult both me and my sister in one sentence ...  |

I've been called a dark horse when it comes to the bedroom a few times. Although it's a pretty nice compliment even with the undertone of them having low expectations |
