"Make someone's day. Tell them how much you appreciate them"

I’m not sure how this really works. This “appreciation” is known to have had adverse effects on many.
Like – remember the first time you said it to your Mom or Dad…did they not give you the weird / suspecting / funny look and say – “what did you do now?” or “what do you want this time?”
Or the time when you tried “appreciating” your girlfriend. Did she not give you the harsh weird / suspecting / funny (if she’s more of a friend than a “girl friend”) and ask – “who did you cheat with?” or “what you trying to hide from me?”
C’mon people! So much so for showing concern and lau !

I'm not sure if this makes many people's days....unless you're married to them, or engaged, or plain ol’ “committed”, but I'm pretty sure you have to do more than that. Because knowing you expecting women, you're probably not content with this after the first time it's said.
The first time was probably a "well wasn't that sweet".....but if we try to use that one more than once, we'd most likely get a "ok you un-original bastard, where are my roses?"
So my advice would be to time this one right......like in between paychecks, because it's a sure-fire guaranteed ONE TIME feel good phrase. So it's like a life-line, but it needs to be used wisely and very strategically.
