Girls, do you like a guy being direct or not?

So lets say I come up to you and start talking to you randomly. Are you turned off if a guy off the bat says something like...your absolutely stunning or beautiful? Or do you like a guy to come up and just talk to you and then escalate from there?

I personally, like subtle flirting that escalates. In my personal experience girls like the half way there, you go halfway and let them come the other half if they're interested. Ex. you say something nice but, not too nice like your hair looks nice today--- difference from your beautiful by saying "today" it makes the comment fleeting and by singling out an aspect of the girl it lessens the severity of the compliment. From then on let he come the other bit if she's interested.

The all encompassing comments might come off too strong and be mistaken for "lines" to say to a girl. Once you know she's into you dropping a really nice compliment would be greatly treasured.

This all pertains to my friends and my taste in flirting.

i would say that I like it to escalate...however when you approach a girl don't go up to her too hyper or excited...it's a little startling.but don't be so calm that you seem high or anything.lol.you should definatley ease her into the conversation though, because it may instantly sound like another cheesy come-on if you start off talking about her physical attributes.

I like it better when guys come up and talk to me but when they start with, "You're so beautiful/hot/sexy etc." I just assume they're trying to get in my pants or are so drunk they don't even know what they're saying. If they talked to me for a bit and then said that then I'd be flattered but when they start with that I can't stand it

You really think you can go up and talk to a girl? What a joke, you know you're going to strike out.

Is that your experience and outlook on this? I feel bad for you, how do you sleep at night?

Haha, no. Dude, I go out with chicks all the time. But since you have to ask this question, its kinda too bad for you. Anyways, good luck with it, it'll probably end bad for you but oh well. Someones gotta laugh.

[cjtheo]

Ha asked it out of curiousity, I've had luck with both. go flame people somewhere else buddy.

[Opinion Owner]

Sure, just like you ask for a friend here or there. What a f***ing loser you are...

[omgxooooo]

I like a guy to be straight forward. As long as it wasn't anything creepy or something that could be taken as coming on too strong. But if it was just a compliment like that, I wouldn't mind.

no I'd think it's really flattering :)
