alexwood Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 is it bad to tel a girl you are on a date with that shes gorgeous? can it scare her off
jeffmeyers Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 is it bad to tel a girl you are on a date with that shes gorgeous? can it scare her off Maybe. Probably safer to do it less directly. "That's a nice dress, you look gorgeous in it". That sort of thing. Same thing if she did her hair for the occasion or something. 2
Gloria25 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Why would it scare her off? Last time I looked, women love complements. Just don't say it like drooling or looking crazy. I'm very humble and quite shy. While secretly I have Remy Ma's "Conceited" rolling around in my head most of the time...that's not "me" 100%. I mean, I know what I got/look like, but don't walk like I own the world. So, if I get a compliment, I will be gracious, but I am shy about it. But, I definitely am not gonna run away...lol.
Author alexwood Posted December 27, 2014 Author Posted December 27, 2014 idk just like texting a girl im about to go on a date with and saying "you are gorgeous, excited to see you tonight!"
Gloria25 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 idk just like texting a girl im about to go on a date with and saying "you are gorgeous, excited to see you tonight!" No, I DO NOT recommend "texting" someone that they're "gorgeous". That's something you say in person. Again, like jeffmeyers said, if you say it indirectly like - "You looked gorgeous today, excited to see you tonight", then yea, I think you can get away with a text. But, first impressions last. IMO, say it to her in person until you got more time with her.
Tayken Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 is it bad to tel a girl you are on a date with that shes gorgeous? can it scare her off Ahem.....Even is she is "gorgeous", I wouldn't just play that ace card just yet. It is bound to go to her head, and reassure her that you are really really into her. A better way to express this will be....you look nice / the dress looks nice on you / nice shoes. You see the difference here? I mean do you think a girl / woman is going to open her mouth and tell a guy on a date that he is handsome? 1

You see the difference here? I mean do you think a girl / woman is going to open her mouth and tell a guy on a date that he is handsome? I agree in part, cuz you don't wanna be going overboard with anyone too soon. But, I do not take issue with telling a man he's handsome. I really mean it. I use "handsome" cuz I can't think of any other word that would let him know I find him attractive. I don't see myself telling a guy "you're cute". Now, upon first meeting him I may say "I find you attractive" or "I like your pics, you're very attractive". But besides "handsome", I can't think of a way to let a guy know he's lookin' good to me.
spiderowl Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Nothing wrong with saying that. However, if all you do on the date is talk about her looks or about how sexy she is, she will conclude you are only after her body and not interested in her as a person. 2
preraph Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I believe it scare women off. I agree with the poster jeffmeyers who said better to do it indirectly. It comes off kind of salivating if you just go, You're GORGEOUS, and it also makes it seem like you have never seen a pretty woman before. And it also makes it seem like that's all you care about, whether it should or not. It's sophomoric. But a nice compliment on how nice they look when you pick them up and they're dressed up a bit is usually not awkward for either person.
d0nnivain Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Don't text it. It loses all of it's positive impact that way. It should not scare her off. However, if you subscribe to a power based theory of interactions between men & women, you will give her ALL the power in the relationship. I'm not saying that is true but understand how powerful of a statement you are making.
kmoney85 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 No, its a compliment as long as its delivered nicely and not in a creepy way. Girls love hearing things like that and it shows you are interested! 2
losangelena Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 You see the difference here? I mean do you think a girl / woman is going to open her mouth and tell a guy on a date that he is handsome? Lol, yes. I tell my BF fairly often that I think he's handsome. Men love positive affirmation; so do women.
TabbyHearts Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 only if it's sincere and definitely not in a text. Basically girls remember if you tell them this, and if it all goes south it's something they remember, like "but he told me he thought I was gorgeous!" and then they start to not believe it in the future and think it's a "get her into bed" tactic. I dated one guy who told me I was "so pretty" but then another time we met he looked at me and said "you look really nice". It's the second one of those that is sweeter to me and felt better.

When you see her, just compliment how gorgeous she looks tonight. Don't say anything more than that. It'll still win points and isn't too much!
