What was a random compliment that someone gave you that really stuck in your memory?
I went through a style transformation in college. So I came into class one October morning in 2012 in a brand new outfit, different to how I used to dress, & suddenly all eyes were on me... and the cutest girl in class bluntly told me “I’m gonna be honest with you, Ste, you’re looking kinda hot!” Never got with her or anything (in case you ask), but just being called “hot” by a hot girl herself was a brand new experience in my life

Good question!
Two come to mind.
"He's trained his mind!"
"You're so perceptive!"
For me, the unusual ones stuck with me and they are “you have really nice feet” and “you look cute when you cry, unlike others who look a mess.”

I remember there was a very troubled boy in my class at school and we both had to work together in a group, I was really deading it because I was badly bullied at school and all the other people in my group had a rep for being bully's.
So we were all working together and no one was listening to me but then he turned around and stuck up for me in front of the whole class and said something along the lines of "you know what Alice your a lot smarter then people think you are, your not stupid like everyone says and your so kind to people as well, so you know what fuck them, fuck them all Alice, you deserve so much better"
I was kinda in shock because he didn't really express himself vocally a lot and I think everyone else was a little shocked to but it felt pretty dam good to have one of the biggest bad asses in school stick up for me and I took in a lot what he said and thought shit he's right "fuck them, fuck them all" because they are a bunch of d%ickheads and I shouldn't have ever let them get to me so I stopped caring. -
This is probably not gonna sound like a compliment but once, like 2 years ago me and my friend where at her house, on her trampoline and she was crying, (I forget why) and she randomly just said, "your pretty" to me. I remember being so caught off guard and feeling awkward. I absolutely HATE HATE HAAATEEE it when people compliment me. I never know how to respond, or what to say, and I just feel awkward.

I was walking home from a houseparty with friends the next morning, I slept over so it was already about 1 pm I guess. I wasn't showered, my clothes didn't look good anymore, still had some weird pieces of eyeliner in the corner of my eyes. I basically looked like a mess.
Then out of nowhere comes this little girl and she just looks at me and says 'you're very pretty' and leaves again and it was the sweetest thing ever.
Also I like being called smart. -
“When you have you’re next girlfriend, don’t——————-...”
WHEN. Not “IF you ever get a girlfriend...” it was subtle, but to this woman, she just assumed I’d be in another relationship. Really subtle, but I know so many women who seem to assume I’d be a worthless piece of crap and undeserving of any kind of real relationship the rest of my life.
I get compliments at work all the time... but almost NEVER get compliments about anything else, at least not about looks or personality.
I’ll take what I can get. -
"If this were IRL, you'd be half dead by this point" -FreshOutaIdeas
I think he was trying to say something along the lines of you're so amazing I don’t even know what is real anymore. -
My second grade teacher gave me a compliment that I only fully understood when I was older, to this day it mortifies me, she said "with your blond hair and blue eyes, Hitler would have loved you"

"I am not a body builder like you are..." (I have girls tell me that including a fuck buddy )
And... just so you know... i do workout but I am NOT a body builder. But as a nerdy guy it was cool to hear women legitimately see me as "the buff guy" you know? - 515 opinions shared on Flirting topic.

3. Why aren't you married?
4. I wish you were my father. -
"That girl is really pretty" - said by a 10 years old to his parents about me. It wasn't said to my face, but it was about me, so I think it counts.

When I was in high school (I went to a majority Hispanic/African American school, so being white was one of my identifying features,) one of my friends said that I was "the supreme Aryan man" after I did some show of strength or something cool, I forget which
I still don't know how to feel about that lmao. I feel I should also mention that this friend was joking before I get called out for associating with racists -
I've been called a lot of things (good ones) but when someone commented I was brave and bold... I felt powerful.

When my friends just tell me how I should work as a stewardess. Also when someone actually mistaken me as one.

I remember once someone in bus commented "you smell like a lemon". I was a teen then. Even now I didn't know its a compliment or insult, but as i like lemons smell, i just take it. Nobody commented like that again
