LonelyJokko Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 ... a complete stranger approaching you to compliment your eyes, hair, outfit, etc.? I am not speaking here of approaching someone in order to ask for a date or phone number, but quite simply of telling a girl she is beautiful for the sheer pleasure of it. I live in a university setting and on a daily basis a girl catches my attention because she has gorgeous eyes, face, hair... I know I should be satisfied with the pleasure of having noticed it but a part of me wants to go further and actually mention it to her. I have done it a couple times but am very reluctant to do it more often because I'm clearly of the shy type and am also terrified she would think I'm weird or feel offended I was looking at her. So to rephrase this, ladies, how do you feel if someone were to tell you you have beautiful eyes (which is the feature that most often catches my attention in girls)? Link to comment

Scorpion Fury Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I like compliments from strangers. Sometimes even creepy strangers make me smile. Link to comment

SpeedingCars Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 It's sweet, but sometimes it can be creepy if he gives off that 'pervert' vibe. But try to get to know her too and strike up a convo! sometimes I get disappointed when a guy just comes up to me to compliment me, only to leave it at that. Link to comment
Day_Walker Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Since you are the shy type it may come off as creepy if you just randomly say a girl is beautiful without her even having the slightest idea who you are. As a way of getting over your shyness rather that just saying how beautiful you think a girl is, why dont you introduce yourself and try to make a new friend, that will get you further than just randomly saying a girl is beautiful.

McLovin oo7 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I would do that. What is the harm in telling someone honestly that they are beautiful or got pretty eyes….. Link to comment
VerdeShimmer Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I welcome it. It's brightens my day! Link to comment
ghost69 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Interesting, I feel I should get that habit as well! Isn't it asking too much though? how do you figure? Link to comment
COtuner Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I like it unless they do it in a creepy stalkerish way Link to comment
LonelyJokko Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 how do you figure? yeah I'm curious about that oh well I guess it cannot hurt to ask Link to comment
Batya33 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Not a big fan of that from a stranger who is a man. It makes me feel too cautious/on guard and I am not a fan of strangers focusing on my looks. I wouldn't mind if a stranger overheard me deal with, let's say, a rude person and said "way to go!" but just on my looks- would make me more uncomfortable than comfortable. Link to comment
agatha Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I like that. it happens occasionally, and keep me happy for the next 36 hours or so X D and I also do the same for guys when I feel like. usually some comment on their clothes, not eyes (unless the moment comes when, while interacting, I get a chance to look into his eyes. usually a kiss follows that one, reason why it's not used often X p) Link to comment
D_Lish Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Think I'd be flattered, but creeped out at the same time. I'd wonder what his motive was and why he'd chosen me, from all the women on the high street. Or wonder if he was saying it to every woman, on the high street...lol Would also stink of desperation, if a guy has to try 'that' hard... Link to comment
