This compliment is actually a trap and here is how it works

[00:00:00]Someone compliments you, then immediately asks you a question. You feel uncomfortable and you cannot explain why. You know that moment when someone says you look great, then asks if you have been working out.

[00:00:13]Suddenly, you feel exposed instead of complimented.

[00:00:16]This is called a covert probe and manipulators use it constantly.

[00:00:22]The compliment lowers your defenses, so the question can extract information without seeming intrusive. You are not paranoid for sensing this pattern because your instincts are sharp. Save this if someone in your life does this to you.
