Well perhaps mature folk feel more confident that you won't take it as a come-on.

To be honest, compliments, though gratifying, aren't too useful. Most people won't tell me "you look silly"; I have to figure it out myself. That said, the "you look like a lot of fun" is out of the ordinary, and sounds pretty authentic! Nice compliment!
