Silence isn't always golden

I find something extremely unsettling about people who compliment people by not saying anything. 

What do I mean you ask? 

"when I don't say anything that's a good thing. " But then can be the most vocal about everything negative. You can't put people down all the time and expect them to go out of their way for you. You have to have more to say to people than what they do wrong. 

You must have some kind of internal struggle if you can't compliment someone. Oh but you expect all the praise. Wait for the fall.
