Another Compliment

That’s right. They just keep coming. I was in the parking lot when the man approached me and told me how much he liked my car. He asked what kind. I told him Nissan, electric. Then he really became interested.

Then, I saw his car, a black Mercedes, may I add a very nice sportty looking thing. I told him that he had a nice set of wheels too. I expected him to be proud of it but he wasn’t, though he did thank me.

Whether it was his intention or not, it was a shot to my ego. I simply am not used to getting compliments on my car. It wasn’t my purpose when I bought the car. I am a very practical person. However, if people driving Mercedes want to compliment me, I’ll take.
