On Facebook Monday I shared the most awkward compliment I've ever heard (about a woman's patterned scarf): "It's so soothing, if your scarf was a food I'd eat it in a hot tub." And you guys delivered with your own strange compliments, which ranged from sad attempts at flirting to downright creepy passes! See the horror stories below and share yours in the comments.

• ‎"Wow you smell good; you smell like schnucks! (a local grocery store)" — Ellen
• "I once had an old man tell me I have a beautiful mouth . . . " — Allie
• "How about guys on Facebook asking you to add them then as soon as you do they ask you to marry them? lol happened to me yesterday" — Deanna
• "I once came out of a bathroom in a club. A guy was standing there and said 'I saw you come out of the bathroom. I find you cute and attractive.'" — Breanna
• "A guy once walked up to me on campus and told me that he'd seen me around walking before. He then proceeded to tell me that every time he saw me walking, that he 'felt a tingle inside' when he saw me." — Tia
• "I forgot the time when this old guy in a Hoveround at Wal-Mart saw my sister (who was 19 at the time) and said "Wanna ride?". We got away from him so fast haha." — Breanna

I was chatting with my friends from another state for the second time via Skype. Everything was fine and fun until they proposed truth or dare. I chose truth and they chose dare so I dared them, the two guys, to peck on the lips. (There are 4 guys there.)

Anyways, after the one guy that I never knew until that night dared me to take off my shirt. It made things REALLY REALLY awkward. The only good part of the story is that the guy I have been digging on (despite the fact he lives so far away) was like, "No man I'd feel like a douche. Plus she's like my friend! I'm going to leave the room if she does it."

But I did not flash them because that would have been very weird. Anyway, the conversation died after I stalled for time and said no. It was complete silence so I quickly escaped! The guy that I said I was digging on, messaged me apologizing after. I don't even know how to react to this situation? Could I ever Skype with them again after this awkward occurrence? I need advice and input people!

I have a really good friend who is in love with me. We have an awesome friendship. I have flirted with him in the past, only because he flirted with me.

We always hang out, the last time he came shopping with me and he didn't have to, he just came along. I really enjoy hanging out with him and we have great conversations and I can talk to him for hours. We get along great, and everyone thinks we should date, the problem? I'm just not attracted to him.

I'm a single girl always complaining about how difficult it is to find someone, so I feel bad that there is someone right in front of me, but I feel weird thinking about being in a relationship with him. I feel that I should just avoid him, but he asked me to hang out next week . . . I said sure.

I also feel like I'm using him because he does a lot for me, and I don't do anything for him, and I don't want to be in the way of him finding someone he can really be with, because he may be thinking that one of these days I'll confess my love for him. Has anyone been in this situation? What should I do?

This question is an excerpt from a Group Therapy post in our TrèsSugar Community. Add your advice in the comments!

I have a "friend," who I know due to her being engaged to one of my oldest, dearest friends. She drives me crazy — makes me anxious, and stresses me out. She is extremely self-centered, and expects a lot out of our "friendship," yet does not reciprocate the efforts that I put in.

A few years ago she asked me to be in her wedding party (before she was engaged . . . two years later she finally paid for half of her own ring and is now engaged), and I said sure, because . . . well how do you say no, right? Well, I got engaged at the beginning of 2010, and my fiance and I planned right from the start to not have our wedding until June 2012. A week after we became engaged she asked if she was in my bridal party. I said, " . . . . yessss." ACK! I know. I just couldn't say no.

Now I don't know how to fix this. This girl drives me insane, I don't want her to be part of our special day. I want it to be about us, and our very closest friends. How do I tell her I don't want her as a bridesmaid? Can I even do that? It's a toss-up — suck it up because I said yes, and forever regret it, or potentially cause a huge falling out and drama in our circle of friends?

I realize how juvenile this sounds, I really do. And I know if I had any backbone I would have just said no in the first place, but I suffer from anxiety and disappointing people can lead to near panic attacks for me.

Seth Rogen adorably described how his nerves led to a change of plans while proposing to actress and writer Lauren Miller last night on the premiere of Conan.

"I felt like someone had given me like a truckload of heroin to hold onto, I felt like the feds were going to kick in my door at any second. I couldn't have a conversation with my girlfriend. All I could think of was this ring."

So he decided to propose immediately, only to find her changing in the bedroom. "I'd already kind of started, and I was like 'Oh man, her [chest is] out! That's not part of the plan!'" he said. "I didn't picture it like this, and I know she didn't."

Not going as planned is what makes a proposal, or anything really, memorable. So if you're married or engaged, or ever have been, tell us what last-minute changes, faux pas, or disasters you and your intended encountered.

A pack of pencils, AAA batteries, a tennis racket; bad presents come in all sorts of unfortunately wrapped packages. Earlier this week I asked what the worst present a boyfriend ever gave you was, and you all chimed in with some pretty sad gifts!

Now that the PopSugar Network's annual gift guides are in the holiday spirit, let's take a minute to commiserate over bad presents from holidays past. Maybe we'll clue in a few lost boyfriends in the process!

• A "vibrating pillow that was supposed to simulate him being in bed breathing beside me since we were in a LDR." — ManiMartinixo
• "He gave me an apron and some baking utensils. I don't bake." — Yellowshoe
• "He wouldn't take the day off for my birthday, and fed-exed me ankle weights from his office." — Anonymous
• "Flares for 'road side emergencies.'" — lickety split
• "A digital picture frame. He also got one for his mom and sister." — onlysourcherry
