can i just mention how frustrating it is to call someone pretty and have them say something like "i'm not, but thanks"

like bitch, i have eyes

i literally see you looking pretty right now and i do not appreciate being implied a liar

seriously though, i get the response is a combination of trauma and self-image issues but a simple "no you" would go a long way making sure at least i don't feel like shit trying to give you a fucking compliment

like. maybe this is toxic positivity or something. but i don't know if a response to a compliment while you feel like shit should result in both of us feeling like shit
