Most people don't know how to take a compliment and as a consequence, they alienate people or even offend them. Not only will they likely never compliment that person again but they may also avoid them or even speak badly about them.

So what started out as something positive turns into something negative, but it doesn't have to be that way. Responding and accepting a compliment is in fact so simple that everyone can do it without practice.
