Complimenting a guy you just met?
Is it a turn-off or turn-on? In the movies I often see it as a turn-on, like if an attractive female tells a guy he is attractive/handsome, he becomes very much into her for some reason!
But its hard to believe that is the case in reality. What do you guys think?

Sometimes flattery will get you everywhere.
@1TubeGuru This is the third time I’m hearing this this month!
I still find it hard to believe. I would want someone to compliment me, or think I am this and that, but when I KNOW that he/she does in fact, I MIGHT lose some attraction I feel towards them. This is mainly in a sexual partner. I guess I like to chase, just like most people do.
Being married, I wouldn’t swallow the bait. But I’d sure notice how good it looked.
People, men included, like compliments. Telling a guy he’s handsome will most likely make him feel good, as long as you do it correctly and don’t come across as creepy.
@lovelessness You lose interest in people you know find you attractive? That’s quite odd. And I find it hard to believe, considering your last question about getting less attention.
As for the “chase” – no one likes a game player.
Yes, it definitely works, as long as you are judicious in using it. A ton of compliments while meeting someone for the first time can be overwhelming, a small comment can be remembered for a long time.
A girl I knew told me about my eyes 35 years ago, I still remember every detail.
I’ve never gotten one, but I imagine it would be nice.
Compliments should always be genuine, not contrived to win brownie points or flatter egos.
If you have to think about what you wish to compliment you are not being genuine, you are being manipulative. Sincere compliments arise spontaneously in the moment.
Why wouldn’t you compliment someone male or female? That is just silly. It is so easy brightens someone day immediately and takes minimal time or effort.
Anything else is silly.
