But when the time comes to deliver them, they sound stale — or silly. Finding the words to make your girlfriend feel special and adored shouldn’t be so complicated. Sometimes, though, you could use a little help. Welcome to our list of 57 of the best compliments to give a woman.
How to Compliment a Woman without Being Cheesy
Knowing the best compliments to give a girl won’t help you if you don’t know how to compliment her the way she likes to be complimented. And while every woman is different, the following tips are worth considering.
Stick with the truth. Don’t exaggerate or say what you think she wants to hear about her looks, her personality, etc., to get her in the mood. Be authentic. Look her in the eyes. If your eyes are fixed on her chest, every compliment will send the message that her sex appeal is the main reason you’re talking to her. Don’t be gross. Sex may be on your mind, but don’t lead with that. Creepy pick-up lines are a big no. Show her you see more than her body and what it can do for you.Learn the meaning of finesse. Focus on making her feel heard, loved, and respected. You can’t be on the same page if you’re trying to skip to the end.Respect the value of timing. Use the kind of compliment that fits the situation. Know her values. Compliments that focus on what’s important to her will be more meaningful and more welcome. Show her you care enough to get to know her.Don’t compliment to get something from her. The appropriate compensation for a sincere, no-strings-attached compliment is “Thank you” — not sex (or even a kiss). Be confident. A compliment delivered with confidence means more because it feels more decisive and unconditional. A tentative compliment feels forced and weak. Avoid size-based compliments. Instead of saying, “That dress makes you look so skinny,” try, “You are rocking that dress!”
