We are back again today with another great Reddit post that was submitted to the AITA thread. This thread is a great place for people to anonymously get unbiased opinions from people on a situation that happened in their lives.

We enjoy going through these posts because they usually get a lot of traction and a lot of comments on them as well as giving many perspectives that we can look at. Ultimately, we just like to give a look at these posts to get your opinions and see what other people might have done in a particular situation.

With this being said, we are covering a post today that was submitted by a girl who is looking to see if she's wrong or creepy for giving strangers compliments in public. After reading the whole thing, people had a lot to say about this situation and what was right or wrong on her part.

So if this sounds like something you'd be interested in reading, then you'll want to stick around as we dive in and check out the full original post and some of the best comments on it as well. Without further ado, let's dive in and see what people had to say about all this.

OP starts off the post with explaining a bit about themselves and what they enjoy doing, which is giving compliments to people.

She goes into the story more and explains what happened when her friend told her that it was weird that she's complimenting strangers.

She says that her friend actually told her that she's humiliating them and so she wants to know if she's truly probably making people uncomfortable or if her friend is being dramatic.

She did add an edit for the sake of the friend to correct pronouns that were assumed in the comments which we always appreciate.

People in the comments felt OP and a lot of them also enjoy giving compliments to other people and so they understand where OP is coming from.

Some people said that the world needs more compliments, which it definitely does so we aren't sure why the friend got so upset at her for this.

This person told OP that as long as they are complimenting things that are appropriate, then there shouldn't be a problem. OP actually responded to this and gave some more info on how they compliment people.

OP says that they don't comment on people's bodies, which is good, but rather gives compliments that she'd like to receive.

This is true too because maybe the friend has some insecurities that they aren't accepting of and so that's why they may think that it's uncomfortable for other people.

Some people suggested that she find a new friend but OP says that they're not planning on getting rid of the friend.

We are glad that OP likes complimenting people, and we aren't really sure why the friend has an issue with it, but it very well could be because of their own insecurities. Ultimately it can mean a lot to people to get a compliment, but we understand how for some people, it might be a little weird.

We still don't think that OP is TA, though.
