Question..many girls who may think they are nerdy seem to be either unaware of their bodies or very shy about them..so when they get complimented they get defensive. It doesn't seem to make them feel good.
Is that a trend..or..do you believe inside that you are pretty but are a bit insecure in that area

Then add a more personnal note to it, and really warp the wires.
but that's just my .02 worth.![]()

RomanHans said:Another phenomenon wrapped up in the whole thing is the difficulty of complimenting someone on their physical features without it sounding like a come-on...which, if you're nerdy (at least as a guy), might seem either aggressive or might be interpreted as some kind of practical joke.
In my most nerdiest of days, if a girl complimented me, I often ran away in a panic. Good thing I got over that.

jdu said:Does this part get easier as we get older? Certainly teens and twenty's are very sensitive about what they look like, and very defensive about their person. Its gotten a lot easier for me to both take and give a complment as I mature (will I ever BECOME mature--thats what my friends want to know)
