No matter how flawless a woman may appear, there will always be another woman ready to out that fire. Women are constantly bombarded with compliments from men, but compliments from other women come a dime a dozen. It’s human nature for men to compliment women, and for women to seek assurance from men, but why does it get so cloudy when it’s time for one woman to compliment another woman? We’ve all seen it happen, picture this; it’s one of those days when you’re dressed to kill, you’re nearly flawless and you walk past a group of females. You hear all of them tell you how great you look but I guarantee there will be one that has something negative to point out. That one person that's out to get you, the one that sounds bitter, the hater type, the person who says, “She’s not all that, she’s iight, she’s not that cute.” The woman who always has to point out a nearly unnoticeable flaw. Some females feel that no other woman can top them. Some feel like they will lose something by giving another woman a compliment, they don't want to lose any potential spotlight. Some women don’t want to boost the egos of other women and some just have too much pride. Women can be very catty, envious and self-centered, making it hard for them to acknowledge the beauty and style of other women. Some women just don’t have it in them to tell another woman how great she looks in that dress, or with those shoes and with that new haircut. There are some women who have no problem. Some people argue that women dress up to impress other women, while some argue that women dress to impress men. Well, for the women who dress to impress other women, hearing “girl you’re killing it” or a simple “you look great” can give a woman all the assurance she needs. To play devils advocate, if you don't get as many compliments as you thought you were going to, that may be a sign to pack it up. Women feed off of other women’s vibes and energy; sometimes a compliment from another woman or lack thereof can mean a lot more than a compliment from a man. Receiving a compliment from another woman can make a difference if you’ve done something new to your appearance and aren’t too sure about it, like a hairdo or new style of clothing. Receiving a compliment can give you a hint to either keep up with your new look or ditch it! A simple compliment is like the cherry on top. A little reassurance from a fellow female can’t hurt ladies. Never be a hater, and never block praise, give props where props are due and the same shall be done unto to you. Don't go fishing for compliments either, if you killed it, the praise will surely come. I mean after all who wouldn’t want to hear how hot they looked today? |
