Because you are very pretty :)

(Jack Pat, keep her here, I'm scaring her away again :D)

Alex the 4th, I agree with s_k!

I also like your two uploaded songs on youtube. I don't usually like dance music, but they were fun, peppy, and pretty! I will feature them in my thread on good songs by musicians who aren't well-known (yet). http://www.musicbanter.com/general-m...ml#post1111336

(Excuse me, Alex, if you *are* famous! ;) I just have never heard your music before!)

s_k 11-26-2011 03:57 PM

Hahaha, she can scare me away with her music if she thinks I like her looks too much.
It may be good in it's genre, but I can't stand the genre :)

Alexthe4th 11-26-2011 04:56 PM

Thank you so, so much, Vegangelica for posting that. I really do appreciate it. I've had a lot of great fun making this kind of music, which is very different from the music I was brought up on and was used to creating. I just want to create as much fun and joy for people as possible; to have great times on a massive scale. I am not famous, though I have done some television/print stuff that some people might have seen me in, nowhere near enough to qualify me as famous.

s_k, thank you for listening and giving it a shot, even though it's not your choice of genre!

Sure hope I didn't make you feel bad. It's just a question of taste :)

Does this look like the face of someone who is feeling bad :)

Idk but Vanilla bb you don't know very many nice girls! I'm sparing with compliments though because it's really vacuous to just be like "Oh, you're so pretty!1!!" all the gd time . I always feel insincere, so I like to pick out things I enjoy about someone's face.

lucifer_sam 11-26-2011 07:34 PM

Girls can say those kinds of things because they need the occasional self-esteem lift. It's only insincere when it's two fat bitches consoling each other about how much better for it they are when they can't land a man. Doesn't seem like you two have that problem.

Guys aren't as tied emotionally to their outward appearance. I've had a guy friend compliment me on how he thought I was good-looking, and to be honest, it made me feel a little weird.

Sansa Stark 11-26-2011 07:40 PM

I usually don't like to pull out the "Oh but you're not fat" etc type comments when someone is complaining about something of that nature, it doesn't help them better themselves and just coddles them. Although, I've known lots of fat chicks to get boyfriends tbh. I was fat once though sooo...

Giving out compliments can be kinda weird too, there have been times where I think "oh this girl has SUCH a lovely figure" but don't want to come off as a creep but then it's like, **** it, why not say something nice and not care if it comes off as creepy

Dr_Rez 11-27-2011 12:08 AM

I give lots of compliments to girls when they look good. I feel like often they think im just mindlessly hitting on them, which sure might be the case from time to time. For the most part though I like to tell people when something they are doing is working, and not in a sexual way just a matter of fact. Some girls definitly get it though and hopefully go on throughout their day feeling slightly better.

Lucifer Sam has it right though. You cant just walk up to a man and say nice pecs their really poppin today, its uncomfortable and odd.

Thom Yorke 11-27-2011 12:19 AM

I rarely compliment girls. I always think it comes across as hollow, even if I mean it. I see other guys do it so much that I can't help but think most girls just think "Yeah, right..." every time they hear it.

a much subtler way is to complement on their clothes or shoes - which doesn't come off so much as hitting on them

I see what you mean. But picking something is actually more personal than saying 'you're pretty'. Just yesterday I looked at a picture of you and thought "Got to love those big eyes". But if you post that, that sounds a bit more... intimate than just saying 'you're very pretty'. It's quite easy to scare people away when you pick out things you like.

See, that's what I meant. Saying "you've got a brilliant figure" sounds a lot more scary than "I think you're a pretty girl". Not meaning I never tell my female friends I love *enter anything* about them. But it's a bit different on a forum, I think :).
And hey, I come over as a creep anyway to some of youz :D

This very much depends on the relation you have with that girl, and probably the remark you make. There's girls I hug and I just tell them they smell nice (if they do, obviously. They usually do :)) and there's times in a conversation I tell them they look pretty. But it doesn't work if you really walk towards a girl and go like "You're very pretty you know". That's just weird :D.

You have to know who you're talking to.
I have recently sad "god you have a nice ass" to a girl I was standing behind in my kitchen. I knew she could take it. And I know how she thinks about me. So it's quite safe :).
I usually never make such remarks, but she really has a very nice ass and she likes hearing such things coming from me, so I couldn't resist :D

Paedantic Basterd 11-27-2011 09:30 AM

This is all news to me. I thought girls were well known for complimenting one another without meaning it, whilst men were known for insulting each other without meaning it. :laughing:

s_k 11-27-2011 09:45 AM

Lol, the latter seems very true. The first thing... Never heard about that. Are they?

Alexthe4th 11-28-2011 08:45 AM

In my experience, the best way to compliment a girl is to just walk up and spit beer into our faces. If you aren't at a bar, just bring one with you in a knapsack or small travel pack. Just walk right on up, say nothing (your mouth is already full of beer anyway) and just spit as hard as you can directly into the face portion of the female. Then softly brush the wet hair away from her eyes and stare directly into them, breathing and puffing your chest out as rapidly and forcefully as possible.

Sansa Stark 11-28-2011 09:18 AM

Wow.

Paedantic Basterd 11-28-2011 09:26 AM

I'd do it to you.

Petrol works just as well, especially round a camp fire. The element of danger does wonders to a girl's sense of attraction towards you.

Alexthe4th 11-28-2011 09:47 AM

In all seriousness though, I think we take compliments differently from women is because there are typically no underlying strings attached. It can be underhanded from women sometimes, but even then it's pretty simple and quickly over. I'm speaking for myself, but I'm sure many women inherently understand that most guys will initiate conversation and compliment because they want something. Whether it's a chance to date you, sleep with you, etc; most guys are after something. It's quite obvious, and it's not a bad thing in general, but it does eventually become sort of typical and tiring after years and years.

lucifer_sam 11-28-2011 09:52 AM

I'm probably never going to see you IRL in my entire life. Still think you're pretty hawt.

But you probably shouldn't open with pictures that you modeled for. It makes it seem like you relish the attention of being a sexual object.

If it's tiring to you, don't post those DTF kinds of pictures.

Paedantic Basterd 11-28-2011 09:53 AM

Polite compliments from anybody can make my day, jussayin'. Beggars can't be choosers.

Alexthe4th 11-28-2011 10:01 AM

Lucifer, I do appreciate the compliments and I am very happy that people find me attractive.

I am perfectly fine being looked at as a sexual object. I could take webcam pictures in dumpy clothes and some people would still take it that way. It's up to the person viewing to see it as sex, art, both, or something else entirely. It's all cool for me!

The "tiring" comment was intended for real life. If I post pictures online, I expect some kind of reaction; good or bad. When I'm walking down the street to get to a store to buy some pants and a guy pulls his car over on the curb and starts trying to talk to me; that is tiring.

I hope this makes some kind of sense!

lucifer_sam 11-28-2011 10:44 AM

No it does. And I can definitely understand where you're coming from; most men are so shallow they can't see past the good-looking part of a good-looking girl. The immediacy of that sentiment shows you've progressed beyond the simple expectation of sex -- there are plenty of women in their 30s and 40s that still aren't there yet. And when dealing with a lot of men, I'm sure you hold off on the physical part of the relationship until you can test their intentions.

I'm not so insecure that I pretend being interested in a girl primarily for her personality (physical attraction is still my greatest evolutionary law), but I won't deal with and can't stand conceited, albeit beautiful, women. And I'm sorry to say it but that was my first and most immediate impression of you.

I was obviously wide of the mark there.

Lol bit offtopic but I just have to mention it:
I dig chicks in baggy clothes, pyjama's, oversized hoodies or t-shirts, jogging pants, haha :D.
The more relaxed it looks, the more I like it.

But that was not what you were talking about. I know.

s_k 11-28-2011 11:32 AM

Hahaha, it doesn't turn me on. Duce perhaps? :D
But you are pretty. I just don't get why you would post soooo many pictures of yourself. I don't mind, but it seems a bit curious that someone with 19 postings has posted so many pictures of herself :D

lucifer_sam 11-28-2011 11:34 AM

Lay off it man. The girl has street cred here (literally).

s_k 11-28-2011 11:36 AM

How can someone have street cred on a forum, literally?
I'm pretty sure I'm missing the joke :D

Alexthe4th 11-28-2011 11:39 AM

S_K,

I like to have fun and create fun. I feel like I am creating some form of entertainment by posting silly or boring or typical pictures of myself in this thread. Am I wrong in assuming that someone or some people in some way enjoy that I'm posting pictures?

Also, for the record (music pun), I have been posting in other threads on this forum and sharing music. I like this environment.

I myself really don't mind. I like your pictures and I don't think you are doing anything wrong by posting them.
But there's always people who will think you're an attention whore. There's people who think I'm an attention whore
and I don't even post that may pictures of myself :D.
I'm just saying; People could get the wrong impression about you. If you don't mind, then neither do I. Feel free to post as many pictures as you wish :)

In that case I'm missing the entire posting :(

Alexthe4th 11-28-2011 11:48 AM

I hope some people do think I'm an attention whore, that is a valid thing to think about someone who posts pictures of themselves in a forum on the internet. This is acceptable to me.

I fail to see why posting my opinions and thoughts is less of an ego-flex than posting a picture of myself where I am somewhat exposed physically. Just because you might get a stronger reaction from a picture of a girl or her boobs or whatever, doesn't make it actually more attention-grabbing.

Let's have some fun and not think too hard, because I am certainly not going to :)
