Question by Strawberry Fields Forever: When someone compliments our clothes, why do WE say “thank you”?. . .?
We didn’t make that shirt or sweater! We just bought it! Now if someone says “oh that looks really nice on you” then you should say thankyou. but if someone’s like “cool shirt” we really have no need to say thank you! I mean, I say thankyou still, but just think about it!
Can’t Handle Me- This is why I don’t have a boyfriend! haha but thanks for assuming! Maybe you can help me find one lol
