Yeah, but I don't mind the free ego stroke. Plus, it's funny how low some people will stoop for approval.

A little bit is nice (strokes the ego, and is good practice in any relationship - compliment the other person a little).

A lot is not great, and I think less of the person.

Help- my SIL showed me two dresses she rented for my shower, and I think they are super bridal/not very appropriate to wear as a guest or bridesmaid. I have asked others and they agree. I feel like my own outfit, a simple jumpsuit, pales in comparison to how over the top these dresses are. What can I say or do? I feel really down but also don’t want to start WW3 by saying something to her. I feel like I now need to rush to buy a new outfit.
