First...Please let me Welcum you to Pixies ~Da_NufNuffess~! It's nice to see you posting, and getting to know the boards, right out of the gate!

Your queston truely makes me delve into my past and try and remember all the nicest things all the guy's in my life have said to me. That's quite a feat I must tell you! It's not that I've had so many compliments or sweet nothings whispered to me that I could never remember them all. It's actually just the opposite.

To clarify...you are speaking of men I know in person...correct? I ask because this is a picture posting site and man o man do the guys around here know how to sweet talk and make a girl feel special!

So, if we are talking of one on one, in person compliments (and I am going ahead with that assumption till corrected)...I can remember two just off the top of my head. One was from a guy I'd known in passing for years. As we became friendlier, started holding conversations on a regular basis, and emailing periodically he blurted out, "I always thought you were just a pretty face. I had no idea you were so intelligent and interesting too". I promise...he wasn't hitting on me...he knows my husband very well. But the compliment made me blush like a school girl!

The other is from my "now" husband..."then" live-in boyfriend. After a tumultuous several first years together, and he thinking he wanted another woman instead of me, he finally came to realize what I knew all along. He said, "I keep trying to push away the best thing that's ever happened to me. You love me more than anyone ever will. Why am I trying to sabbotage the rest of my life? I'm sorry I've hurt the person I now know I love more than anyone on this planet. Thank you for sticking around till I came to my senses. You could have left and I wouldn't have blamed you. But I know I would have regretted it forever". Not too long after that he proposed in such a sweet, albeit out of character, way...I said yes with (happy) tears in my soul! <---much longer story there...but that's for another thread. Oh wait...I did post it somewhere before. LOL!

Hope that answers the question. I do have a tendency to get off the topic *giggle*
