Protip for you: Next time someone pays you a compliment: Ask them why, instead of immediately rewarding with a "Thanks!"
Example: If someone compliments you on the way you dress, look down at yourself and examine with them (Body Language), and say, "Huh? Really? What is it you like about it?"
In your scenario, maybe ask her, "Really huh? Why do you think that or what makes you say that?"
Regardless, the idea is to challenge them on their compliments in an effort to make them become more invested in defending their position, opening the conversation for more potential outcomes. It's a very subtle trick that makes them like or appreciate what they just said even further.
Just thought I'd drop a hint for you. Cheers!
