My friend (who is wise beyond her years), said she likes a guy to compliment her on three occasions:
If she's dressed down (no makeup, in sweatpants)
or
Dressed up.
And when she changes something.
She says girls are more leanient with new crushes as getting compliments from a crush always feels "fucking awesome"
So use compliments liberally at first and then sparingly, to fit those three occasions.
And when she asks how she looks in apparel, never say, "you're so perfect," always give your honest opinion, remembering to be charming and sweet, and make suggestions on how she can change it, even if you have no idea, she will appreciate your honesty.00 Reply

+1 yIf I see a girl that's really attractive I just making something up like your a prim looking stargazer, or your a gentle flower picker. Something weird and that they question, but in my opinion it's better than your pretty or hot

It's flattering at first, but as I have experienced this before, and seen the after effects, I see things a bit differently. Through text, a compliment means nothing. It means you aren't willing to say it to her face. If you compliment her in person as well it's a different story and totally fine, but anyone who has been hurt by an insincere guy will question your sincerity and your motives.

+1 yLove being complimented by a crush, and most likely she'll compliment you too. But all the girls answering are right, as long as you make it personal to her instead of just using anything, she'll love it. It also feels good when you get her alone and say it to her in person.

Nice at the start... but when he does it all the time she feels obliged to compliment back and it's very awkward to do. Such things oftentimes kill the conversation for me if done too much. Use compliments sparingly.

Anonymous(25-29)+1 yIn my opinion, through text I wouldn't really be that amused because anyone can pour their hearts out through text. But in person, face to face, I would probably melt.

I couldn't stop smiling after that. that was, the first time a guy said I was, pretty , so it was, special. He is, still, spexial, too me.10 Reply
+1 yI don't know about everyone else but, I get through the roof excited sometimes so happy I wait until I get home and just have a dance party in my undies all by myself. It's so uplifting to know the person you care for notices you enough to say something nice about you.

+1 ySpeaking from opinion. I have a boyfriend who complements me and I dont normally believe the compliments but when he's giving them me I feel special, it puts a smile on my face for a long time. It makes me feel like I'm worth more than I usually think. Girls love compliments whether it's face to face or in person. If it's from someone she likes massively then it will cheer her mood up completely ☺️ Good luck!

+1 yInsecure girls feel like the boy is lying to them and will get mad or just stay quiet
Confident girls will enjoy the compliment and may laugh about it20 ReplyWell through text I always feel guys are just trying to get in my pants and throw every compliment at me to do so. So if you're going to give a compliment I'd advise you to do it in person. And actually mean it!
00 ReplyI sort of laugh it off, can't help it, but I always like it. As long as it's not just the usual that every girl gets to hear. Just compliment naturally, so that she knows "that one is for you and I mean it"
