Someone has been reading compliment and cuddle

I only agree with No 2, 4, 5 & ESPECIALLY 6!!

I'm with MiXX--2,4,5,6 are good (yes, 6 probably top, but they're all good; 2 is "verbal isolation", 4 is showing IOI unrelated to looks, 5 is classic Dale Carnegie (people love to hear their name), etc). Even 1 and 3 have their uses, but only with care lest you come across as fawning.

That was actually surprisingly good. I expected something extremely cringe-worthy, seeing that it's yahoo.

For Yahoo, it's down-right amazing. Usually, Yahoo "dating advice" reads like this:

Guys, eat an erect phallus with a fork and knife in front of your date to show how much of submissive bitch you are. Then empty your bank account and make it rain on your date and her two out-of-wedlock kids.


That's only a mild exaggeration.

I agree with Mixx. This was a decent list of quick reminders you can glance at as you're leaving out to meet up. I always forget to use the name frequently. That's a powerful rapport builder under any circumstance.

Hmm, the best reactions from compliments i have ever gotten from hot women is when i say some variation of "even though your eyes are kinda close together, youre still a bit cute". Honest or kiss her ass ones usually only got me "aww youre so nice".

What you did is known as a "neg", works best on unsuspecting girls who are otherwise used to betas or fake alphas kissing their ass.

I don't see why some people have a problem with #1. I think alot of people are overthinking it and are under the impression that you have to keep telling her time and time again how beautiful/hot/whatever she is. Look a girl straight in her eye, with strong body language that says "you are mine" and tell her that her she has pretty/exotic/beautiful/whateverthefuckyoucancomeupwith eyes. Context and timing is key of course, probably don't do this right away. If you are halfway good looking, this should get you somewhere. If your ugly, forget it. Quadruple points if you actually have good eyes and are wearing something that compliments them.

Of course, anything said to a girl with strong body language has a great shot of working, so whatever.

Just don't, under any circumstance, tell a girl shes hot, or pretty. Be very specific, only one complement like this per date, in fact if done properly one is all you should need.

I've heard that name one before- Supposedly saying someone's first name multiple times in varied tones can really create some interesting situations.
