Have you ever been complimented too much?
That's happening to me in my life these days. I have someone who's complimenting me left and right. I'm "such a nice man," etc.
Which I am. I'm nice to everyone. But most people take it in stride, maybe it's their due. Certainly I don't mind people thinking nice things about me. That's OK, but leave me to my own sense of how things are going. I don't need constant strokes about it.
I came very close today to saying "It's too much," or something like that. But, being such a nice guy, I couldn't bring myself to say it.
I myself affirm people regularly, but not the same people over and over. It's a good thing to do, especially, of course, if you're sincere. Which I usually am.
