How would you feel and what would you do if your partner put you high on a pedestal?

Id reciprocate the flattery, I guess

I'd feel uncomfortable. In many ways being put on a pedestal is being handed expectations that you may not feel you live up to.

So then what would you do and how would you feel if things continued that way? (assuming you do like this person)

Thats a good question, and one I was just thinking about

Id start being a dick so she can take me off that pedestal? nah,

I would just keep reassuring her that I'm nothing special. I mean there's a point where I can imagine it can get really annoying, but I have never experienced that before.

It's never happened for me. I'd probably think something was wrong or off a bit.

That would be awesome. I'd have her wrapped around my little finger.

I'd let them know that I'm scared of heights.

Dump her because I'm not into women that do drugs.

It is unknown how one would feel about this situation unless they had already been put on a pedestal once and have something to compare to.
Personaly I don't get my self worth from the opinion of others so it really is a moot point.
