"Okay? no babe, it's not done that way, if someone compliments you like I just did or give you something, you will say "thank you" because this is what will trigger the person to do more" he said and pouted.

“Sorry, I’m more of a ‘do-unto-others-what-they- do-unto-you’ kind of guy.” I laughed. “No wonder God made you cute. You will not handle criticisms and insults well.” “Cute is a huge understatement, don’t you think?” He winked. “Cute is actually a very generous compliment,” I said, teasing him in return. “I will grow on you.
