If you were to compliment someone on their teeth would you mean it? Or only be saying it just to be nice?

So I wear braces and have been wearing them for 3 years now.I'll be getting them off by the end of this year. At work from time to time ( like once every couple of weeks), ill have a customer come in and as I'm laughing with them, or if they're making me laugh they would say " you have nice smile" " oh, you have a pretty smile." I always say thank you in a sincere manner, but for some reason I view their compliments with skepticism (probably being a bit self conscious). As if they mean the opposite.

So when you guys/ladies conpliment people on their appearance do you genuinely mean it? Or say it just to be nice when you think the opposite of the compliment you gice?

Yes, I mean it

No, just saying it to be nice

sometimes I mean it sometimes I do it to be nice

When i complement someone, I always sincerely mean it from my heart. Even if its a "You have a nice smile" or "You're beautiful" etc. If I dislike someone I don't say anything... I always genuinely mean my compliments :)

i would never mention teeth unless
i was impressed.

well, teeth aren't the type of thing people lie out, its mostly clothes or hair, but teeth are one of those things that you if someone has nice teeth, its a unique compliment you can give.

They wouldn't mention something as specific as that unless they really felt that way.

People with braces tend to try and hide their smiles, it's really noticeable. So when a rare smile is allowed out it is a beautiful thing.

If I were to compliment someone on anything I'd mean it.

That is a very weird complement.

[MsCookie]

You think so? Haha Would you think complimenting on someones cheek bones as weird as well? :3
