    Apparently people complement each other as a way to signal they would like to get to know you? Or as an opener to gauge if you would like to have a conversation? I thought you just tell people something nice about them when you noticed (but not their bodies or things they cannot change) because it’s nice to say nice things???

    I did not get the handbook with instructions when I was thrust into being.

      Right!?
      Does context matter?

      I’m literally walking down an isle of a soon to be packed bus, with people infront of and behind me, so we can all get to our cars in a parking lot nearly a mile away. Is it the time for a chat, during the 2.3seconds we have while I’m passing?
      Just totally suprised and not at all ready for that.
