I don't have to imagine. I'm sure almost 15 people have complimented my appearance over the course of my entire life.

What?! I got one random woman on the bus to school when I was around 17 (so I looked about 12) who mistook my resting grumpy face for actual sadness and spent a good 5 minutes giving me a pep talk about how if anyone bullies me, it's because they're jealous that I'm pretty. I was just sitting there confused the whole time.

And then compliments as general love-bombing from my toxic exes. And as part of a few generic "my beautiful daughters" from my parents, which was just hollow to me. So I can literally count it on one hand.

I do get complimented on my miniatures, though. And that's more important, because that's something I achieved.
