Aries

When someone says something nice about you that makes your skin crawl, the feeling arrives faster than any explanation for it. You know something is off before you can name what, and that knowing is more reliable than the politeness that wants to override it. The compliment might be technically accurate, even well-meaning, but it still carries the wrong weight or assumes the wrong thing about who you are or what you want to be seen as. Your first reaction is the one that matters, before you talk yourself into gratitude you do not feel.
