When I was in college, and for about 10 years after, that would happen to me, too. NOW, when I look back at pictures of myself, I realize I looked hot as hell. Back then I absolutely did NOT know that I looked so good. People would smother me in compliments, and I thought they were about to try to borrow money or something, then they would get indignant because they wanted to be intimate with me (just because of my looks) and when I did not give them what they wanted, automatically I was an asshole. It took me a few years to understand what was happening. Needless to say I no longer have that problem. But I guess my point is, don't blame your occupation. Blame your looks! :) You don’t have to be a stripper for empty compliments to become like white noise. When I was in college, and for about 10 years after, that would happen to me, too.
