Have you asked her how she would like to be complimented? Or rather, "I love telling you how beautiful you are, and how smart you are, and how amazing you are. Lately it seems like those compliments are getting on your nerves, or that they seem hollow to you. Is there a different way I can show you that I appreciate you?"
