Why can't it just be you looked nice? It's not so unfathomable. Sometimes a compliment is a compliment. I think with your father I can relate but I think more often it is me projecting. I called my mom out once and said yeah let me guess I look thinner and she said no. You look healthier and less stressed, it looks like 5 years have come off your face. As your mother it's nice to see you more relaxed. Oh...thanks...<br /><br />I truly believe that while people do say and see things, and form opinions there are more that live in our head then in the outside world. I think it's scarier for me to think someone actually believes I look attractive then they think I look attractive for a fat girl.
