I texted a woman in an online dating app with a direct message on her youthful looks and beautiful eyes. Along the message I told her we could share a smile together and continued to ask "how are you?".
I just remembered it and I thought "oh, why did I say that...". Yet I have a coping mechanism of "If it felt fine at the moment, then it was ok", to avoid feeling anxious about it. Or maybe I should feel bad about it, though I don't see a reason to since I had the positive intention to create a relationship. |

I see nothing wrong with what you said. Would be a lovely compliment to a woman, it would be for me

It was a nice compliment but maybe you are feeling anxious because you put yourself 'out there' and that makes you feel vulnerable? Just a guess. Anyway, I think practice might help you gain confidence.

That was a nice thing to say and should be just fine--it is unlikely but if she did find it offensive then she wouldn't be a good match for you. A girl who is not easily offended would be more fun to date.......

People get fed up with boring messages and I Think you have no reason to worry as it was a positive and nice message. I am sure that she will respond once she is back online... please don't set yourself up for sad times waiting for a reply. Women love banter and fun so that's always a good way to start when chatting on dating web sites, once you get to know them a little, then is a good time to mention what attracted you to them.. Good luck and hope she replies x

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
