Welcome back to Poll Of The Day — today’s question asks whether life is moving at your speed.

TODAY’S POLL
How would you describe the overall pace of your daily life? |
LAST POLL RESULTS
22.9% of you voted Romantic partner or spouse in yesterday’s poll: Who’s most likely to comment on your appearance when you see them?
“My wife is great at compliments, and I try to return the favor. It works out well.”
“Definitely my wife will comment, especially if my hair is a mess and we’re leaving the house.”
“My husband tells me every day that I look beautiful. :-)”
“EVERY day, my husband has something positive and flattering to tell me about how I look. Kind and appreciated, but some days I brush it off — I can tell the truth, LOL.”
“It’s always my mother. When I was a young girl, I was too fat. Now that I’m older, I’m too skinny. Any time I have any type of blemish, she points it out. Besides myself (thanks to her), she’s the worst critic of my appearance.”
“My late mom was the most likely to compliment, or more often critique, as was her habit. Now it’s most likely my sister sibs, whom I rarely get to see. Day to day, getting comments depends on who sees me and what I’m wearing — my tastes are eclectic.”
“MOSTLY MOM.”
“I get to see my brother only about every 6 months, so we usually comment on each other’s appearance.”
“If you love brutal honesty, one of the truly great joys in life is hearing comments from your children about your appearance.”
“My adult son is on the autism spectrum, so as you can imagine, there’s NO holding back from him, lol! Especially if it’s something on the negative side or something he’s not too fond of. It’s just one of those things you get used to, and sometimes you need a thick skin to deal with it. Thank goodness I was born hard-headed and strong! 😁”
“My close friends are like family. Having said this, friends and family feel quite comfortable commenting on my appearance, usually when I look good. Although they are equally comfortable commenting on weight changes. My mother was concerned about all our appearances.”
“Does looking good count as an appearance comment?”
“My female friends are great about noticing and complimenting a new haircut, the color of a dress, etc.”
“Now that I’m old, I’ve become invisible.”
“I don’t care what people think/say to me!”
