I know what you mean, but it's best to say "oh thanks, but your just as pretty" or "thanks, I love you eyes..how do you make them look so pretty?" don't ever put yourself down though, just always say thanks and return a compliment. That's what I do!

find some aspect about your friends that you don't have, but would love to. like, the next time someone says "god, you're so gorgeous" you could respond "are you kidding? my hair is impossible. you're so lucky to have straight hair" or something like that. i know how you feel with the uncomfort you get out of compliments, so try what i said and it'll stop "bugging" you. :)

I know what you mean. Just laugh it off! Give a shy smile, roll your eyes, and thank them. Then compliment them in return! Try, "Thanks! But I'm not the one with the amazing purple shirt." Or something along those lines.

Take the compliment. If you refuse the compliment by saying "No, I'm not." or something, your friends might feel bad. They just want you to say thank you.

You could also compliment them back. Honestly, I don't see why this would make you uncomfortable. Your friends are more than likely telling you the truth. It's not uncommon.

Maybe compliment them back? So it takes the attention off of you?

I mean, certainly don't lie.. but, compliment the person back.

Maybe that will help?
