6. You respond to a compliment with sarcasm
“I sent a message to my coworker, who fell ill right after we’d finished a big project at work, to make sure she was alright. She responded by saying, ‘So you only notice I’m gone when I’m not around to help you with work?’” Remember, the sexy thing about a woman is her confidence. Instead of twisting everything into something negative, simply say, “I’m feeling better; thanks for checking in on me.”
