Is it wrong to tell other people of the opposite gender that they’re “beautiful “ if you’re in a committed relationship?

[Anastacia1989]

It’s wrong/ disrespectful

We all have eyes and look

[TonyV]

Yeah we all look, and maybe even comment about actors/actresses in movies or about strangers we see in public to our partners, hell maybe complement friends of the other sex who are in need of cheering up or asked your opinion so long as it isn't inappropriate.

But to just complement strangers you meet right in front of your partner, or even complement strangers behind their back is wrong, you can't tell the waiter/waitress they're hot, beutiful, cute, handsome or stunning on a date with your partner, that's rude as fuck to them.

[Nawlins34]

I don't feel comfortable telling someone else whether it's right or wrong.

I'll say for me to do that, it's wrong. In all things, I try my best to be intentional, so people who know me well would know even a small gesture like this, is a statement!

My logic regarding other reasons not doing it? If it's true, someone else will tell the opposite sex. Guys will volunteer to do it all day, everyday.

I'm intentional with my compliments.

[wishiwasfiction]

It seems weird to me, that's almost like flirting. I mean, yeah we all have eyes but it doesn't mean we have to share everything we say.

But then again, it depends on the context. If it was that she got dressed up for an occasion, I would say it's normal like a compliment to her effort. If in a normal situation, yeah call me close minded all you want but that would feel weird to me

*Everyhing we think

[Singing_Hollow]

I dont think its wrong to tell someone they are beautiful. My man wouldn't just because to him I am the most beautiful and if he told anyone else then he would be lying lol (his words). If your intentions are wrong then id say its wrong but if you are just giving a complement then Id say its fine

[madhatters4]

as long as you say it without any sort of lust or flirty intent behind it. i'm married and i'll tell my female friends and friends of my wife, "you look great today" or something like that. but the intent is to only let them know that they look great and hopefully have it be received as a compliment.

if the intent is to sort of flirt or because you're feeling a little thing for them then i think it is sort of crossing the line

[Lionman95]

I would go with b but don´t overdo it because if you compliment people of the other sex often while in a relationship your partner easily gets jealous especially if you give him or her few compliments.

[Anonymous]

I'd say this all depends on who you're saying it to. And your relationship dynamics. There's nothing wrong with telling someone wrong they're beautiful. But some women can't just take a compliment without trying to assign some deeper meaning. Likewise some women when in relationships are insecure about ANY perceived indiscretion and would take offense even to you just giving another woman a compliment.

So this question does not have a simple, universal answer.

[WhitneySnow]

No not if it’s a sincere nonsexual compliment

[RingOfFire]

These questions are so easy to answer. You figure out what is right and wrong by imagining they are doing the same thing to you and thinking about how you would feel about it. If you wouldn't like it, DON'T DO IT TO THEM!

[Sparkie460]

If I see a beautiful woman, I'll tell her that I think she's beautiful. Yes I am married, I'm not dead

[OfMiceandMen]

It's just a compliment, one should not read into it so much. Just trying to make someone's day.

[KostasKouvalis]

Maybe not in front of your partner, but I mean, we're still gonna find people attractive

[Sevenpointfive]

it's probably time to break it off with your current SO. we could get more into it because deep down i'd probably agree with you, but the short of it is that it's not okay

[Sasha0426]

Yes! We should insult people instead.

[OddBeMe]

I don’t know, honestly. I’d say once you get to know them. “Work friends” are usually cool with that. Strangers not so much.

Fyi I thought you meant at first “you’re only beautiful if you’re in a committed relationship.”

[Xoirwinkan]

It is if you do it INSTEAD of complimenting your partner. It depends on each person, some people are more jealous and won't be fine with that, and it can lead to the complimented person to think you are flirting with them.

[Screenwriter]

Nothing wrong with a general compliment. Keep it light and breezy. Not creepy and leery!

[4ngelic]

as long as you're not flirting then its fine

[Lliam]

No. Not if it's just a compliment and not intended as a come on line.

[jammcm]

I don't see anything wrong with it... as long as you are making a true coment about their looks or personality. If you just fluting then that is a whole different ball game.

[zero444440000]

wtf why would it be wrong/disrespectful to tell someone the truth? like not admiting that people other then your partner are beautiful is just weird.

[Annie_LevelUP_ADC]

It's not wrong, just tell it as an observation. Don't flirt with them.

[mobiusforniner]

I only tell a woman she is beautiful if im in love with her. So, yeah.

[In_Trance]

The only person who can answer this question is the person you're in a relationship with. They'll tell you whether it's ok or not

[Sunflower766]

Yes it’s kinda wrong, Only if you compliment them in a social situation where other people also complimented them

[HippieVeganJewslim]

No. I could understand if my love would find everyone other than me beautiful!

[LiamJHayden]

I don't see why. I can appreciate beauty without desiring it.

[Kingofkings1992]

I don’t see anything wrong with it, compliments make people feel good. You shouldn’t make a habit out of it however.

[Nikki1989]

Nothing wrong with that.

[EmmaMary]

No, absolutely not.

[BigDog1989]

I mean, depends why you're saying it

[exitseven]

I am married but not blind

[humanearth]

No, not at all

[kakaling]

I appreciate the good things in life.

[SnowedIn]

Not one bit wrong.

[jahaims]

Depends on context
