I tried this at an art festival this summer. Purposely went out of my way to compliment people whose outfits I liked. 75% either didn’t respond or looked at me like I had grown two heads 💔
I want to be someone who compliments ppl more but every time I want to they have earbuds in, so I don’t bc then if I I do then they may not hear me and it turns into a a whole thing
if you’re doing it while people are walking, sometimes it’s too awkward to stop and respond back but the compliment is still well received! coming from someone who compliments everyone and receives a lot of compliments

While out I’ve gotten compliments before and since it takes me awhile to process things, I kinda look like a deer in headlights and end up not responding bc the person has already kept walking
