I'm weird with compliments, sometimes I take it, thank the person and it's okay then other times (most times, lol) I feel obligated to return the "favor" and desperately look for something to compliment them on and my brain blanks. Or when someone says something like "hey, I like your shirt" I'll answer something stupid like "oh yeah, I like it too" and then mentally slap myself because it's obvious I like it, I'm wearing it...
I'm pretty good at reading people, at least I think so. I'm not sure if people read me, I might be sending the wrong signals.

I'm pretty closed off and keep to myself so that alone makes people stay away as I'm "the weird loner" or something.
I'm the same with donating! I sometimes donate for some animal shelters etc. and I always check the box to hide my name because why the hell would I want it anywhere? XD But I realize most people like the recognition, for people who have patreon it's important to at least say thank you by listing the patrons' names I guess. That and some threshold prizes? Idk XD
