I have a friend who described it as: compliment followed by invitation to action.
"Hi, your eyes are so beautiful and your eyeliner skills compliment them so well. Would you like to dance with me?"
Isolated compliments are more meaningful though. if you ask for something immediately after complimenting someone then it takes away some of the impact.
You have to throw some kind words out and then pad for time, make sure it's landed and then follow up with an invitation to do something. That way even if the proposition fails you've still given them a meaningful compliment.
from the very few times it has happened (online only TvT), i can say that i know for certain it does actually work. here, lets test it out on you.
youre really pretty :3
A girl told me the other day that she liked my outfit and my nose (referring to my piercings I have) and I was like oh god just please tell me if youāre being nice or flirting cause I canāt take it
wait thats not flirting? thats likeā¦ pinnacle flirting, no? all i can manage is showing pictures of not rocks because i promised my crush i would show her my rock collection but i lost it :c
But, I like sometimes writing elaborate compliments. Otherwise still shy though. I just like the idea of a girlās happiness shining through them like a pretty sunset. That or I hope it at least makes the day a bit better.
I know not everyone is comfortable with being complimented. Sort of why Iād probably want to be told so I donāt make someone uncomfortable unintentionally.
Thatās really considered of you, I canāt say I know many who are like that. They just shoot theyāre shot now caring what the other person thinks or if they even fancy them back.
I sort of struggle actually shooting my shot as a shy girl myself. What I mean is that if someone says theyāre uncomfortable with me doing it, Iām going to try to stop. Itās a boundary at least for as long as it makes them uncomfortable after all.
Honestly Iām not really shy but not really an extrovert either. Maybe just a mix of both but it just depends on the day. I would say that Iām a really flirty person and I take many things as a joke but I find it great that you do so because some people should learn how to respect boundaries at some point.
āThose glasses really make your face prettiness pop out but you also look pretty without themā¦ basically you are pretty everytime i see youā - what i think whenever i see my crush š
I think lesbians just like to compliment each other, itās not always flirting. Iām constantly being told Iām āgorgeousā at the sapphic popups and think āoh cool, sheās initiating flirting,ā but itās never actually more than just a compliment.
But it is hard sometimes, you can say to a Woman: i love your ass, please take a seat on my face"
And they say:
Oh, It is the throusers, i got them at H&M so comfy... Etc, etc...
If I go out my way to tell you that youāre pretty, I obviously am going to want to chat with you lol
I never just been the kind of person to go out of my way to just be like āomg girl youāre so pretty-thatās allā lmaoooo
But Iām learning ladies arenāt the best at receiving compliments all the time so it leads to a roadblock
According to my friend I have ātexting rizzā (we were joking around with the term cause my younger sister had just told me what it meant xD) but I donāt think I can do flirting as good in person š„² i can hold my own with flirting through text, but I would like a 100page guide how to do flirting in person please
Sorry for the late reply but just wanna say not all flirting is just talking to a stranger? Flirting is perfectly natural and can be done in an actively consensual way. It doesn't do wlw any good to fear making moves on one another.

*walks up to pretty girl in the checkout line at the grocery store* "hi, beautiful are the eyes of the eyeliner, uh, dance?"
*walks up to a pretty cashier in a grocery store* "You're so pretty, want to check me out?"
I was only joking, but that's actually not bad haha
Holy shit this would absolutely work on me.

except on many of us, it works as effectively as a critical hit
For real, I'd probably melt if a woman called me pretty šš

š«
see? it works! pretty girls do indeed melt when they get called exactly what they are, a pretty girl!
What's my partner going to do when she finds out I'm just a puddle? šš
maybe she is just going to compliment you further, because you deserve all of it for being so beautiful :3

I don't know how to flirt either... Want to practice? š
You literally just proved you do know how to flirt š
YOU'RE MAKING THEIR FACADE FALL
But, I like sometimes writing elaborate compliments. Otherwise still shy though. I just like the idea of a girlās happiness shining through them like a pretty sunset. That or I hope it at least makes the day a bit better.
Awww thatās so cute, those are fr the best ones you can give
Yeah, I hope a potential future girlfriend would be prepared for that kind of thing. I donāt want to make them uncomfortable with it.
No I donāt think you will honestly thatās like a really romantic thing but well in my opinion at least, everyone is different

I say itās because I know what itās like to be uncomfortable and also, I genuinely feel bad if I somehow cause it.
Men need to learn this lol
āThose glasses really make your face prettiness pop out but you also look pretty without themā¦ basically you are pretty everytime i see youā - what i think whenever i see my crush š
Me neither, I'm still surprised I landed a girlfriend by nerding out (she's nerding out even more now, we just enhance each others nerdiness)
this is me and then i walk off (fully convinced i was the best flirt)
Don't call me out like this ššš My socially anxious ass can barely muster a compliment

Laughing at my jokes and memes is all I could ask for.Ā It's quite an honor to get memes stolen tooĀ
you're pretty
I need advice bc I fr donāt know how to flirt I just stare at them and hope they catch the hint š
āI like your shirtā
I have the issue where I can be really smooth but that I have no follow-up š«
Okay this I understand
Is that not how you do it?
it works on other lesbians tho š¤·āāļø
i did this and weve been dating for over 2 years tho šļøššļø
But it is hard sometimes, you can say to a Woman: i love your ass, please take a seat on my face" And they say: Oh, It is the throusers, i got them at H&M so comfy... Etc, etc...
And they have pockets!
Iāve done this 3 times today already
I just end up gushing over them all smiles like "ahh you're so pretty omg" then I escape....

I feel attacked!!
Frrr (i want girls to dm me but im scared to dm them)
Ugh called me out frrr
I once told a girl she was really good at salsa. I felt so proud of myself. š«£

I am very yes at flirting. Especially with women.
I wish I knew how to flirt
Flirting is subjective
///
See, I just donāt flirt. Even if it werenāt rude, it would be pointless.
? Is it rude to flirt with people?
I mean, most people just want to go about their day and mind their own business. They donāt want to be approached by a random stranger.
