There's a first time for everything

I received one of the nicest compliments on Saturday. I'd met her a couple hours before she told me:

"You're the most patient man I've ever met."

I'm pretty certain that's the first time anyone said that to me. Exaggeration or not, it was wonderful to hear it.

What's the nicest thing a (mostly) stranger ever said to you?
