I got called out...

Today, my friend complimented my outfit and I replied with "Thanks, it's so old. There's a tiny hole, see?" She immediately told me STOP and just accept her compliment. She made me realize I ALWAYS do this. When someone compliments me I always reply with a "thanks, but...." type answer instead of just saying thank you or actually AGREEING. Even when I have a day when I'm *feeling* myself, I will usually downplay a compliment and give a reason why what I'm wearing, etc is not so great. I didn't really notice it until my friend pointed it out.

Does anyone else do this? Were a lot of us taught this? I feel like men don't do this as often as women!

Let's have confidence ladies! ❤️
