I was today years old when I learned how to really compliment someone.

,"What's the best psychology trick you know?" Honestly, I was really surprised by some of these and definitely learned a thing or two. Here are 16 of the most popular answers:"If you present someone with a limited set of options —usually two or three — instead of asking an open-ended question, you can subtly guide them towards making a decision that aligns more closely with what you want.

"When someone accomplishes something cool like getting a job or graduating or whatever, say the normal 'Congratulations, good job' etc.. They'll say something dismissive like 'Thanks!' Then, you reiterate the compliment, something like, 'No, really, that's so amazing. You should be really proud. That's just...so cool.' It forces them to sit in the compliment.

"Silence works if you think someone is lying to you. Someone lying will instinctively keep trying to convince you, and will often add more noticeable exaggerations." "Ignoring shit. Is someone causing problems? Ignore them. Is someone talking shit? Move along, go and do something else. You don’t need to entertain anyone if they want to make things hard. Don’t feed the trolls, people."
