Do you consider it flirting if someone gives you a compliment on your appearance?

[wittymilf]

If you tell me I look good, it’s a flirtatious interaction

If you tell me I look good it’s a polite interaction

Why doesn’t anyone tell Me I look good

[serious]

No, there is whole lot of difference between genuinely complimenting someone and flirting with them.

Flirting and complimenting are not at all same. Most people misinterpret complimenting as flirting which is not true.

Well, to answer your question. No, if someone compliments me then I won't assume that they are flirting with me. However, it's true I don't appreciate compliments, I dislike compliments but if a woman does compliment me on my looks then I will just hear it, not say anything.

I won't assume that the woman is flirting with me.

My boss told me my new hairstyle was different and she noticed, and said she liked it, really looked good, while at the same time seemed giddy and blushing, and This doesn't help matters though we're both married that she told me something like that! The woman almost never speaks to me neither. She has no idea I'm more than just a ordinary joe already digging on her. Stay focused I say on my fam.

[wittymilf]

Ok see that’s a compliment not a come on in my opinion

[Opinion Owner]

I guess?

[Opinion Owner]

Bumped into her in the hallway and she said hey how are you? Replied I'm doing good and smiled and locked eyes the entire time we walked by each other, she turned like different shades of red just like that. We went on with our day.

[courtney06]

I told this guy he looks good after I gave him a hug in a very casual way. Didn't see it as flirting at the time; I just thought it was a nice thing to say since I really thought he looked good. He's not someone I would date though. He's told me in the past I look good so I felt more comfortable telling him that.

[witherwing]

It depends. Compliments can be friendly or flirtatious, depending on who they're coming from and how that person intends it.

[Logorithim]

In my experience it usually is, although if it comes from someone I deem to not possibly be interested in me as a boyfriend, I assume it isn't flirting.

[GingerGuy]

Rarely get them, and when I do, it's usually from a family member, friend or co-worker so I don't think much of it. Depends who's giving it to me. If it was a random woman, I might question it depending on the circumstances. But us guys in general don't get many compliments ever.

[ak667]

Depends on where for me. I have associated the highest probability of successfully dating girls who compliment things like chest and arms while wanting to touch these parts. Face isn't quite as much of a guarantee.

[ak667]

It's very contextual but I've learned not to associate a compliment like "You're handsome" or "cute" with flirting. I have found that certain ones like, "Your body is hot! Yummy! I want it", with a much higher probability of successfully dating girls. I don't get that very often and usually the girl isn't entirely sober when she says that, but I have discovered, in my experience, that this is usually flirty.

[Wifflesnoofer63]

I don't know. Some anonymous guy on here (who was asking girls how many centimeters of dick they can fit it their pussy) just called me a pervert for saying a certain 50 year old woman was pretty.

[wittymilf]

Haha, gag is weird community

[DublinRollerGirl]

Hell no, that is just like saying the weather is nice. It can be expected and is not surprising when it occurs.

[Darknut]

You really oughta give yourself more credit...

[jerijay]

Nope. I would know if someone was tryna flirt when they compliment me cos most of the time it's usually exaggerated

[Texas_born]

No, I don't think so. Most of the time it's a compliment.
Also, it's how he will say it that can make it flirtatious as opposed to just a simple compliment.

[Bluemax]

Well, a lot has to do with who is saying it. When it's a friend or coworker, it's almost always not flirting.

Also, a lot of it has to do with the delivery. A polite smile=not flirting

A flirty smile, an admiring gaze=flirting.

[curiousnorway]

Depends on who says it and how it's said. If a friend of me gives me a compliment, it's because of we're friends and wants to be nice. If that person is a potential date and have shown some signs of being attracted to me, it's probably flirting.

[bekalen]

It's always a compliment. Sometimes it could be more flirtatious though.

[nofunkgiven]

No. But I would know if someone is using a compliment as a way to flirt.

[wootamandawoot41]

nah kid. its just life. my life. click clack the mack is back

[Tokentexas]

There are too many variables to consider. Safe bet is not to compliment the opposite sex, when in a relationship. It's not only what you're thinking. Its what the person recieving it thinks & conveys it, which you have no power over. And your s/o feeling/thoughts. Not too mention men take a compliment differently from a woman than a man, thought process is different. And vice versa. Don't turn the knob if you dont want to open the door.

[Pink1996]

It depends on the situation?
If its friends then they are being polite and nice.
If its a random guy in public then it seems flirtatious.

[NicolaJ35]

Sometimes it can be, depends on familiarity i'd say

[BHooper]

If you give someone a compliment on there appearance it's just being polite. But then if you continue to compliment them it turns into flirting.

[AbdKilani]

It depends if a girl tells me you look good out of nowhere it is a flirt, if it was in the usual context of i ever had a girlfriend then it is just being polite
And if the girl is saying it repeatedly it is flirting.

[Matt57]

It could be, but in some cases, it's just a polite thing.

[Knowbetternow1]

Not usually. Depends on body language and how it’s presented but usually I take it as just being nice

[Bikeboy]

I think it’s being polite if I said you look good. Now if I said it more along he lines of wow you are sexy I think that’s more flirting.

[Anon_af]

It's an observational comment that could be taken as a compliment or even just a comment. The degree to which it is flirting would have to depend on the interaction between the two parties immediately preceding the statement.

[TrustOfWorthington]

Honestly it is flirty. What else is purpose of a compliment? Come on be honest. You don't tell a stranger a compliment if you are not into them. If you would even though you are not at all attracted to them, then it is a polite interaction.

[uravgguy]

I think it's just a compliment, but then again, i'm oblivious to these things

[TayTay21]

No, because most people who compliment my appearance are hetero women.

[MlleCake]

It might be, it might not be. I look at the whole context.

[pizzalovershouse]

Not if their not trying to get a date i call it being nice if i. took. every compliment as a serious flirt I would of got the wrong thoughts about girls that wernt wanting a date

[loveslongnails]

You are SOOOOOOOOOOOO hung up on flirting !! LOL... it's a compliment most often, probably not a pre-lude to "do you wanna fuck?" :)

[Rangers]

Nobody would look for something to compliment someone on their appearance if they didn't have some type of interest for them.

[WhereAmI]

If that's true, there are a lot of pedo females out there. I got a lot of compliments back in HS. lol

[Lance1965]

Depends on who is saying it and why. Sometimes compliments are not genuine.

[NightOwl8801]

I would consider it a compliment and friendly banter

[JimRSmith]

It can be either, depending on the context.

[Schrodingerscat]

Why doesn't anyone tell me I look good?

[wittymilf]

You l👀k good

[hellacray]

Nope it's gonna take more than that.

[Hannajenky]

Depends on a lot of things

[genericname85]

depends on who says it xD

[MrMysteryMan]

Depends on the compliment and context.

[truthbeknown]

Yes, but that is pretty minor.

[Riichy]

I think flirting is healthy makes you good

[Justfun42]

Depends on how it is said and who says it

[weaverman]

No but I'm sure some people do

[Ninakumari]

Depends on the guy. It's not always flirty.

[douride2]

[TaureanBull81]
