You just get that eraser out...no notes about me being difficult!! I'm actually VERY low maintenance!! Yes I think we do become jaded if its overly used and of course depends on the person paying the compliment too and how we perceive it.
Here's an example using yours truly. We know we women love everything, our shoes, food, girlfriends, animals, etc...well I have this habit (apparently I need to curtail it or work on it!)...when I get off the phone with one of my friends, swear to God, I end the conversation with Love You!! Well yesterday, I just about blew it with someone...I stopped myself midsentence. I called Tina and we had a good laugh.
To me an acceptable "You look beautiful" or something along that line, whatever would be on a date, special occasion, clear out of the freaking blue. Just not used as a overkill. I have a friend and I visited her and her H a few years back. The man was obsessed with her. We were out driving and he stopped the car, turned to look at me and said "Dont you think my W is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Well yeah but dude drive the freaking car!! She ended up leaving him the following weekend and not for another man either. She ran about 5 states away from that man!! LOL...I got named in the divorce decree (Swear!!) and she keeps the papers in her trunk to remind her WHY she should never get married again. The man was just twisted.
