I was wondering how often girls get called pretty. I get called pretty/beautiful/cute/attractive quite often whereas other girls I know whom I consider to be goodlooking rarely get told they look nice. Is it common for young girls to be called beautiful?

I used to get complimented on my eyes a lot, when I was little. Now that I'm older, people stare in my eyes for a second, making me feel uncomfortable. They ask in an accusing voice, "Are your eyes CONTACTS?" When I answer "No," they give me a slight dirty look, and then smile and say, "Well, they're very pretty." Is it that uncommon to have blue eyes? Haha. I know bunches of people with blue eyes, and they say they've never had this happen.
