Appearance

Post Reply New Topic

I am known for not commenting on someone's appearance. Would it be rude if i said to a girl that they are extremely good looking?... and what reaction would you give if someone said that to you?

I rarely comment on people's appearance too. People think it's nice and want attention, and sometimes people dress nice just because they want compliments... so they would think it's rude if you didn't. I think it's rude that they are grubbing for compliments...

I'm so unsure of myself that my compliments barely even sound like compliments.

I really don't like getting compliments, well that isn't true... I want compliments for things I think I put in a lot of effort towards and I think is of value. This doesn't happen that often...

I tend to act surprised and uneasy when people give me compliments... either they want something... or they are just trying to cheer me up...

I'm too neurotic for compliments...

I actually wierded my most recent girlfriend (a VERY attractive lady, I might add) out, because we had been seeing eachother for a few weeks, and had never complemented her on her appearance. Strange, from my perspective, since I had frequently complemented her on things she said or did that reflected positively on her personality or intellect - complements that I felt were much more meaningful.

Yes, me too! I am a little creeped out by compliments on appearance-related things beyond my control. I am genetically thin (as were both parents) and I have been a runner for 30+ years. I am unhappy when people act like my body mass is an accomplishment. Please, complement me on things I have done, not things I am or things I was lucky enough to find.

I've never complimented someone else on the way they look & I don't usually like it when people do it to me. But it really just depends on what's said. This one guy said "You have a nice a**." & I didn't like that at all.

Unless you're going out, it might be better to stick with complementing her on something else (her jewellery, her shoes etc..).

Once you're going out, you can tell her she's beautiful, but make sure to also focus on her personality as well so she doesn't think you're shallow.
