If some women choose to be "offended" when a compliment is given, perhaps they should also choose to not go out of their own way to make themselves attractive. I don't care what anybody says, I will NEVER be convinced that a woman puts on the makeup and the clothes and does the hair just because "she does it for herself and it makes her feel good." She does it because she WANTS to be noticed, but as soon as she is, she's "insulted" that somebody had the nerve to notice her.


Oh, you can read women's minds, right? So, you must know exactly what all women think! What a neat trick.

Sometimes people don't reply because they would rather be appreciated for their mind and not their appearance. I hate messages that only contain a one sentence of your hot, or pretty, or nice wrack. Get me? If I am going to be interested, it has to be for a deeper reason.

Dating sites online make communication between guys and girls so much easier, especially if u are shy. dont you just hate it when ur browsin profiles and you see someone that u think is very attractive and that u like their profile, but when u send them a compliment on their looks and things you like about their profile and they dont even as much as send a thankyou email back? frown


I get responses. How exactly are you complimenting the woman? Nice arse?

I've often thought about it from this perspective (even since i first read your thoughts on it) and I tend to partially agree with you.

I think that we all (male and female) want to be found attractive, to both men and to women, and I try (most days) to look good, be it applying makeup, fixing my hair, dressing nicely, etc. I DO want my boyfriend to notice me, every single day, like he did the first time, so I try extra hard to look nice when we are together. I DO enjoy his friends telling him he got lucky, so I do make an effort to look nice in my photos and/or when we visit them. It DOES feel good to know that other men might find me attractive and that he might exhibit a touch of green.

However, it isn't the ONLY reason though why I try to look good. Looking good makes me feel good and that is when most people are at their personal best (in looks and attitude) - when they look good. Every time I wear high heels, I walk much differently than I do in runners. It isn't a conscious effort, but I am certainly aware of it.

Also, just because I (or any other woman) make an effort to be attractive, for any reason, it doesn't give men the right to expect to be well-received if their approach is cruel and/or not reciprocated.

I'll just say send a "thank you" back. Unless the way the person tried complimenting me was offensive to me. That has happened more than a few times.

There are some approaches to complimenting others that people think are okay be that are actually really rude and insulting. And some people will never see that.

Understood and appreciated, Lisa. I was not meaning "cruel" approaches, and certainly not lecherous ones. I was meaning when a man would compliment a woman on her appearance, most tend to think the only thing a man wants is to get into her pants, instead of considering the compliment to be genuine.

Please feel free to inform me of anywhere my previous post that I put the word, "all."

Let me try it from another angle:

When you get up and are leaving the house to go to work, grocery shopping, to town, or wherever, do you shower first? brush your hair? your teeth? shave?

I'm guessing that you do (I hope it's okay to assume laugh ). Do you do all that because you want a lady to notice how attractive you are? Or do you do it out of good grooming habits? Or even to make yourself feel clean (good)?

I do agree with you as it being one reason why a woman might gussy herself; I just don't think it is the only one, or even a major one.
