Confused

Today, I was out shopping with my mom. While we were walking, a guy in a car honked at me. I'm not used to compliments, so I was pretty flattered and flashed him a smile. He looked back at me, confused, then shook his head and pointed at my mom. FML

Honks are considered compliments? Am I behind the times?

You should be proud of your mom in that case lol.

never respond to honks it shows you have respect for yourself.

1st, odd "compliment" and 2nd, he was probably closer to your moms age anyways

My thoughts exactly. Around here, honking at someone is more of insulting, unless you know them, in which case it is more of a 'hello!'.

im glad you didnt think the honk was insulting. I've had a similar experience at the mall. A super hot lady was smiling at me so I smiled back. then she motioned me to approach her. before I could take a step, the guy from behind me walked toward her. turns out she was smiling at him. the embarrassment I felt was epic

She would not be wrong to find it insulting.

Hey, dont daughters look similar to their moms?

You should be proud, your post has been featured on iFunny.

The fact that I know this feeling all too well concerns me to the max. You aren't alone on that one
