Is it cocky to say “I don’t like compliments because I know I’m not ugly I don’t need reminded” ?

[Bekaaaaaaaahhhh]

A guy asked why I don’t like compliments he said he never met anyone who didn’t and I said maybe it’s my Asperger’s I just find them awkward and uncomfortable and I feel obliged to say something back I guess it’s just I don’t like compliments on my looks it’s superficial “I know I’m not ugly I don’t need reminded” that’s why and he looked shocked

It's easy to mistrust compliments if they are said when you are still doubting the genuiness of the person saying them.

[jamesgoldman]

It could be viewed that way

Personally I don't need compliments because I know they are going to be lies because I'm an ugly bastard

[spartan55]

Yeah, I think you should choose your words a little better in this case.

[LiamJHayden]

Could be taken that way, but many people use compliments to try to manipulate others so be uncomfortable at that is understandable.

[TallAnon]

No, it just screams overcompensating.

[Bekaaaaaaaahhhh]

Overcompensating? How?

[TallAnon]

Actively saying you "know you are not ugly" comes off as arrogance.

[Bekaaaaaaaahhhh]

Oh sugar yeah now I get it. I guess at the back of my mind I thought it did a little hence why I questioned it

[Anonymous]

You might want to rethink about that.
