Compliments Time Giving Make Person Feel Good Nice

When flirting or dating someone in the U.S., it is important to use compliments to show your interest and to make the other person feel comfortable about spending time with you. Compliments can make the other person feel like you are paying attention to them, but don't "overdo it" or try to do too much. You don't want to "come off" or appear "desperate" or like someone who needs or wants something very, very badly.

If you are on a first date, it's a good idea to find two or three things that you really like about the other person. Don't just "blurt it out" (say it aloud quickly and without thinking). Instead, save them for later in the date or "space them out" (put some time between each one) so that you'll sound more "sincere" or are showing your true feelings.

Here are some acceptable compliments on a date.

- "You look really nice tonight."

- "You look great."

- "That's a very pretty dress." (women) "That's a nice jacket." (men)

- "You have beautiful eyes/hair."

- "Great car!"

- "You are really good at that." Or, "You did that really well."

- "I bet you get asked out a lot." (women) = (Meaning: "I'm sure that many men ask you for dates.")

- "I can't remember the last time I had so much fun."

- "I'm having a great time with you."
