My wife sometimes stops to compliment me because she knows men don't often receive compliments. I always appreciate that.
That's how you know she should be your wife :)
But really, this should be more normalized. I've heard the opinion that many men see compliments as a way to show sympathy when that wasn't intended, but I think this is exactly because it's so rare.
My girlfriend also takes time to compliment me, and I appreciate it.
