<p>Anyway ya I'd say it's definitely weird. When someone intentionally uses a word that's not typically deemed "sleazy" in an effort to appear sincere, it's generally pretty transparent >> therefore having the opposite effect. </p>
<p>Haha, good CC example: So I went to a cool SAT prep thing the other day, and I was just coming in as this one guy was leaving, and he just goes, "wow you're really beautiful." lol... awkward?? It's weird because it's a "nice" thing to say...but like what was he expecting me to do?? Thank him and then give an impromptu strip tease??</p>
<p>I'd say if you're really looking to a compliment a girl, come up with something better than what she's heard a million times before.</p>
<p>if that's the first thing he says, it's weird.
if he says it ALL THE TIME, it's weird.
if he says it when i've admitted to feeling really insecure - and we were having a nice convo in the first place - it's sweet.</p>
