What is yours? 
I'll start:
after lunch today with a lady I haven't seen in about a year who invited me to lunch - unexpected all the way around, made my day I have to admit.... 
"You look fantastic Thomas!!!  Time is definitely on your side. Your skin is flawless and your eyes are the color of a the water off the Maldives. Smart too!!!
Let's do it again soon."

Seems like she wanted a little more than lunch my man......

My latest compliment was about my weight (I've dropped 40 pounds in the last year and a half) and saw some employees at an annual meeting last week. I got a lot of "where'd you go" and the like. It is always nice to hear.

the tall blonde ex-CFO of my last company saw the pic I put for BTer of the Month and sent me an email in which she said "I saw your pic and you look AMAZING!"  (fonts and caps preserved).

At the LTS and the owner said I looked pretty fit even after I told her I was 10lbs over my first IM weight.    Also she compared my endurance levels (being high) as compared to her TNT triathletes that are getting for a June race.

Email I received last week from someone I dated off/on for 2 years (yes, it made me smile):

You are indeed a strong willed woman.  When coupled with your intelligence, you can be a bit scary to men.  At the same time, these qualities make you incredible compelling.  I keep being drawn to you...   You are intimidating but when properly handled, you are also sweet, soft and incredibly sexy... There is indeed a companion for you out there.  There is nothing you need to change about you.  Maybe you ought to slow down a little from time-to-time; but the essence of Renee is wonderful.

The irony is that my name is not Tom, but I didn't want to ruin the moment...

A guy at my LBS saw me in shorts... he hadn't seen me in awhile and said I must be riding a lot because my legs were looking muscular.

It's nice when a guy can appreciate a woman who has some muscle on her bones.

I haven't been complimented much lately; only thing as of late was some random guy in the food court at the mall on V-Day who said he liked the boots I was wearing.

No sure if it's compliment...

Couple weeks ago a coworker asked "Are those lather pants you are wearing?".  I was wearing a pair brown corduroy jeans/pants.

One that the wife and I got together.  We were at a party, and some people asked how long we had been married.  When we told them we are coming up on 12 years, their jaws dropped and then they asked if we got married when we were in HS because we look so young.  I'm 36, she is 34.

Welshy, do you collect poetry about your eyes?  I still say sea foam.

My mom told me the other day that I am my Dad's biggest achievement/greatest joy and pride, and that when I call him at the office "to talk" I make his whole stressful world go away for a bit. My dad has worked so hard for me, has defended me to the end even when I was giving my mom, teachers, etc  fits, and was my number 1 support when I came out. He treats Kathryn like his 2nd daughter and has done 100% of his fathering responsibilities at 100%. To make him proud is my life's mission.  I guess it's not a compliment like all of the above, but it made me feel good to know I haven;t squandered the gifts he has given me.

Of course, 3 weeks ago I was ready to murder him, but that's why we are such a good pair. We are impossible!

A woman at Starbucks told me my legs were the ones she wanted, and the reason she worked out.  My neighbor commented to another neighbor on my azz looking good (I really shouldn't know about this, but I do.)  And a couple of people called me a hot mom after checking out my wetsuit pix in my album on here.

Those all make me happy. Yes they do.

I don't get complements like this - just you and and her, but it's nice to have someone verbally appreciate you....

When I got my first drivers license it said I weighed 180lbs. I only actually weighed 140 though, someone made a typo. I was actually kind of sad when I fixed it, I always liked telling people that I had lost a bunch of weight and seeing how impressed they were.

I was told by an attractive woman at my work " I hope your wife treats you good; as nice as you are and the way you work out and how you look she better.".......

Made my day.

Last week I went to breakfast after a swim workout in a black tanktop and as we stood up to go I guess I pushed off the table in a way that showed off my swimming shoulders.  My friend, who had given me complements a few months ago when my training started to show, said,  "ok.. NOW you're just showing off!"  In response, I of course flexed my biceps and smiled.
