quite simply, been my strength and stay all these years.

我把我參考的資料都貼出來好了.
綜合以下的資料, 我的結論是 "take to compliments" 是喜歡去恭維別人.
而不是喜歡被恭維.
[Longman, Comtemporary English]
take to somebody/something (phrasal verb)
1 to start to like someone or something:
ex*Sandra took to it straight away.
ex*Charles was an odd character whom Kelly had never really taken to.
2 to start doing something regularly
ex*take to doing something
ex*Dee's taken to getting up at 6 and going jogging.
[Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary]
take to sb/sth (LIKE) phrasal verb
to start to like someone or something:
ex*His wife took to her new neighbours at once.
ex*She's taken to tennis like a duck to water (= she likes it and is good at
it).
