I think the reason why being complimented by strangers feels so nice is because it used to happen to you as a kid alllll the time. Happens to my kids all the time for dumb shit you’d never compliment an adult for. I bet people take that for granted when they are kids and only notice it’s missing when it stops happening to them as they get older.
