Do guys usually compliment their female friends on their physical appearance?

[Dsg1193]

Do guys usually call their female friends cute etc? does complimenting them usually mean they can like them romantically or not necessarily?

Yes

No

[OlderAndWiser]

I frequently compliment a girl with whom I already have a romantic relationship. Women spend time getting ready for a date, worrying about what to wear, wanting to make sure that they present themselves as well as possible for their companion, and they deserve recognition for their effort and for achieving the results.

If it is a woman who is only a friend, I am less likely to compliment he because 1) the effort she made was not specifically for me, and 2) she may misconstrue a compliment as an expression of interest, and I do not want to mislead her about my intentions. However, if her appearance really does catch my attention and I can make a comment without fear of misleading her, I may comment on her appearance.

If a woman is a friend or acquaintance and I want to explore the possibility of romantic interest with her, one of the first things I might do is to compliment her on her appearance.

Are you asking this question because a guy has been complimenting you and you are trying to divine his intentions?

@maximillionnn You mentioned me to elicit an opinion from me on this post?

[chriscdi]

that depends, only in a serious situation if its true, for example if she is having serious insecurity problems or something and she is attractive i will not think twice of letting her know, even tho if she wasn't attractive id probably still lie just to build her confidence so then she can be confident enough to find someone that actually does, i try not to liw tho cause that can go south real quick

[william_wizard]

I compliment my female friends all the time! I always make sure to tell them when I think they look good or if they do something awesome. Though I try to make it clear I'm complimenting them platonically. Lol

[william_wizard]

Lol cry more bud.

Ya know, there's actually such a thing as being respectful to women, right? :p
I don't make myself clear because I think they're going to throw allegations at me. I make myself clear because I don't want to be misunderstood, and I want them to be comfortable. It takes literally no effort on my part, and guess what? I've never had any issues amongst my female friends due to miscommunication.

Maybe you just tend to say creepy things that make women uncomfortable. :p

[william_wizard]

Hahahahahahaha
Oh wow. Holy shit. I don't even know how to respond to that.
Why not just say you're scared of women? It would've been much faster. Lol

[william_wizard]

Lmao I like how instead of actually responding to what I said, ya know, trying to actually deny being scared of women, you choose to just make shit up and think you somehow "got" me. XD

[william_wizard]

Lmao jesus dude. This is just getting sad.

[william_wizard]

Lmao it's cute you think this actually qualifies as bullying. :p
Like, you actually think that you are somehow actually bothering me. When in reality I'm just laughing my ass off.
Because in reality, you're the one that is trying *so hard* to upset me it shows just how pathetic you really are. Lmao

[ZiZi_Bell]

HOLY SHIT
IT'S YOU
THIS IS AMAZING XD

Somehow you managed to find both me AND my boyfriend on this app and absolutely fail to pick a fight with both of us AT THE SAME TIME. LMAO

Bruh, go to bed. XD

[william_wizard]

Bahahahaahahaha oh fuck. Oh this guy is the best.
@ZiZi_Bell I should've known you would've found this prince. XD

[ZiZi_Bell]

Kekekekekeke awwwww little boy is all upset now. XD

[william_wizard]

Lmao YOU are blocking and reporting US? XD
Dude you are just cringey as fuck. Lol

[ZiZi_Bell]

Lmao he BLOCKED ME!!! XD
Poor fuckin baby couldn't stand it. Lma

[william_wizard]

Lmao good job babe.

[ZiZi_Bell]

Thanks handsome. ;3

[william_wizard]

@maximillionn and yet here you are trying to start a different fight. Lol
You realize it take zero effort to just scroll past? :p

[william_wizard]

@maximillionn no one was harassing you? This is my opinion thread. You're all coming to me and starting shit. You even tagged someone completely unrelated to try and do... what? Not get involved? In something you involved yourself in?
The other guy was funny to argue with. You're just being a dick.

[ZiZi_Bell]

@maximillionnn dude you came on someone elses thread and started insulting us. You don't get to say "stop talking to me i have no interest in speaking with you".
YOU came to US and started talking. We didn't seek you out. You started this. On someone elses thread. Don't act like we are somehow involving you in this when you were the one that came here completely unprompted AFTER the argument was already done.

[william_wizard]

I'll stop talking to you when you apologize for coming on here unprompted, insulting me and my girlfriend, and then trying to blame us for the fight YOU started.
Apologize for all that and I'll stop talking to you.

[william_wizard]

I just said I'll stop if you apologize. I'm not even tagging you. Just responding on MY opinion thread.

[william_wizard]

Dude, what is your problem?
I'm just asking you to apologize for insulting us unprompted.

[william_wizard]

You insulted us. You started it.
You came onto MY opinion and insulted us. Then you start pinging admins trying to get something to happen. I have not provoked you. I'm not harassing you. You are on MY opinion. It's going to send you a notification no matter who responds. This whole thing started because YOU commented on MY opinion. Again, completely unprompted. If this was YOUR opinion I could understand your point of view. But it's not. You came here and started a fight. You owe me an apology.

[william_wizard]

No. Again, I'll say it a hundred times, you're on MY opinion. I don't have to leave you alone because this is MY opinion.
You have two options.
Apologize, or block me.
I'm not backing down because I did NOTHING wrong.
YOU started this.

[ZiZi_Bell]

@william_wizard just drop it. He's just a privileged ass that thinks he's more important than he is. He's not worth your time.

[william_wizard]

@ZiZi_Bell I'm just pissed that he has the nerve to try and claim that I'm the bad guy when he's the one that came on here and started the argument.

[GingerGuy]

It's not black and white. Chances are good that maybe he has some sort of interest in you (finds you attractive at least), but not necessarily mean romantic interest.

[TeeBar]

Her personality would be the deciding factor: if she's pretentious, No, but if she's shy and deprecating, likely Yes.

[WesBrewer]

If your friend looks good why miss the chance of embarrassing them, or just being nice to her.

[lucas262]

I can think of 2 girls I consider acquaintances ic never doted on them but ill always encourage them kf they admitted any insecurities

[rustymopp]

sometimes it's just cause I notice they've done something different,
sometimes it's cause I'd like to get romantically involved
depends on the person I'm complimenting

[COMMODOREII]

Do it all the time. And my girl friends compliment me.

[Anonymous]

No, I probably wouldn’t be complimenting a female friend unless I was trying to flirt and probing to escalate.

[Avicenna]

Yes, it’s quite common.

[Iron_Man]

I don’t have female friends
