It makes me happy and I usually say "Thanks" unless I'm too flabbergasted. Now, if they attempt to continue conversation past that point (and if their intent is obvious), then I get less enthusiastic as I'm taken.
Depends on the compliment. There are compliments that can be flattering from a stranger and then there are the ones that make a girl want to get as far away as possible.
I feel like all of these girls have boyfriends... As a single girl, I would be extremely flattered, and if it was just a tactic to talk to me and maybe ask me out, then great. Good for you. Just go for it honestly, you never know who you will meet :)
Depends on the compliment; if it's something I have control over (e.g. my outfit, my hair) or something kind of general ("you look nice today") then it tends to make me feel good... If it's about a specific body part, that's awks.
This times a thousand. I have fairly unusual eyes and it's really awkward to reply too. Like, thanks, I have awesome genes? Plus if it's specific body parts that are considered sexually appealing, it feels like you just want to use my body.
I give them a kind smile, say thank you, and keep walking while trying not to act overly flattered or blush too much
ReplyDeleteWeirded out, but flattered. More of, "Oh... thanks. Uhm, see ya."
ReplyDelete^same here

ReplyDeleteId be extremely flattered. I would nicely explain to them that I have a boyfriend if they'd try to talk further. I wouldn't be creeped out at all.
ReplyDeleteIt's ok as long as they don't immediately ask for your phone number/facebook info.. then it gets creepy (speaking from experience)

ReplyDeleteWhats flattering, and whats creepy. Or is it the person who delivers it?
DeleteSo if I came up as said "Damn that ass is fine" you would not like it?
DeleteIt depends, do I have my pet donkey with me?
DeleteYes, you have a very good looking, well behaving donkey with you.
DeleteLmfao ..oh shit, that was a funny one.
DeleteNicely set up. Laugh of the day
If you don't play the game it is impossible to win.
ReplyDeleteJust don't be a dick about it.
I would be flattered but put off.
ReplyDeleteI say thank you, and continue what I was doing before. If they pursue further, I politely tell them I have an S/O.
ReplyDeleteI tell girls/guys alike all the time if I think they're particularly pretty or I think they're wearing something cool
I would definitely be flattered. It's all in the delivery, as long as it's genuine and not just a pick up line it would be nice.

DeleteWow I never thought of it this way but you're completely right, 12. Compliments about things I have control over are so much less awkward
DeleteI think its flattering
ReplyDeleteJust go up to them and straight up ask if they are single. Be a man. Be direct. Don't waste your time dawg.
