Cheesy compliments can feel fake or forced, but they might be the most honest a person can get. Giving someone a compliment, especially a cheesy one, means letting your guard down to tell other person know what you really think about them. Making it "cheesy" or dorky makes it a easier to slide under the defenses and save face in case the person receiving the compliment doesn't react positively. If you're receiving the compliment your initial reaction might be to recoil in an awkward daze, but don't. There can be some real earnest care coming from those awkward words.


Reddit user, u/f3jaideep, wanted to hear about:

What is the cheesiest compliment you ever got?

Excitement Turned To Sadness

"You are a handsome man and if I was younger i would try my luck."

Some lady that passed me while I was sitting at the bar in an irish pub by myself. Came out of nowhere I was confused for a second but was quick enough to say thanks. Don't get me wrong it still felt good hearing a compliment like that out of nowhere but in that moment it also really saddened me it wasn't someone [remotely] close my age and I quickly left afterwards so I don't sad drink lol.

Solid As A Rock

Some rando when I was about 15:

"You must have been born in a gravel pit 'cuz you rock my world."

SugaredZebra

Thank...You?

"If I was a woman, I'd want a body like yours".

Weird and cheesy, all in one.

There's A Wide Array Of Possible Reasons For This

I was the "good one of the litter".

Like thanks, but did you just call me a dog?

DukeBeekeepersKid

Could also be calling you a cat, a pig, or a rodent take your pick.

The cheesiest compliment was during dessert when a dinner guest said:

"Your homemade cheesecake is so rich, I feel it turning to pound cake with each bite."

Back2Bach

No, Really, Thank...You?

Well not cheesy but idk what it's consider but, "you better tie up your shoes so you don't fall on that pretty face of yours"

Esmton

Sounds like a subtle threat.

Does This Qualify As A Compliment?

You're the prettiest girl in a scooter (mobility issues) I've ever seen!"

No lie, it's happened TWICE. Different guys, different times.

People Still Pass Notes?

I had a random girl pass me a note in the school library asking to be my girlfriend. Looking back, she was kind of cute but I was too embarrassed to follow up on it. I just got up and left. I could have had a lot of fun if I wasn't so shy when I was a teenager.

Riding The Smoky High

Just a few days ago I was at a college event where we had a bonfire, I was sitting around talking with a couple people I had never met before. The smoke kept coming straight for me, despite my moving out of its way. The girl across from me commented, "Well you know the smoke always goes after the prettiest person." Played it off and laughed with everyone, but I've legit been riding that high for some time now.

Gotta Get It From Anywhere, I Guess

A new teacher pointed at our class picture and said, "Whos that, she's really pretty". I was like "Hmm.. Thanks, I guess.'

Edit: [I'm] a Dude and look nothing like a girl at all.

Woman Recounts 'Craziest' Experience At Restaurant While Reality TV Show Was Filming There—And Yikes

There's a saying about being a "jack of all trades" that's popular for a reason: basically, you cannot be the best at everything, and if you try to be the master of juggling too many plates, you're likely to drop some of them.

TikToker Hannah Revels went out for a double date, including her husband and a couple of friends, to a restaurant that she did not disclose. It's supposed to be a nicer restaurant that was recently renovated, and it's also located in Charleston, South Carolina, so celebrity sightings are fairly common.

TikToker Shares The Outfits She Wore To School Her Senior Year To Hide Her Teen Pregnancy—And Viewers Are Stunned

Most people would agree that high school is tough, from going through puberty and figuring out who you are, to trying to decide what to do for a career and where you might like to go for trade school or college, and maybe experiencing your first love.

Also, going through teen pregnancy during that time takes the high school experience to a whole other level.
