Being told "you're pretty"

Would it be creepy for a random stranger to tell you you're pretty and walk away? Why or why not?

I pass many pretty girls every day, and on multiple occasions, I've been tempted to go up to them with the sole purpose of telling them that I thought that they were pretty. Nothing else. Not even planning on talking to them. The thing holding me back is thinking that they might think I'm being creepy. I have a girlfriend, but I feel like many women deserve to be told that they're pretty when they are, especially with all the social pressures they face to be "perfect," comparing themselves to movie stars and models.

Would I be being creepy?

This reminds me of a pretty girl that walked past me every day. She was alot shorter than me and beautiful.

One day I couldn't help myself and just gave her a great big hug, and apologetically told her that she was so amazingly cute that I had to hug her. She responded quite well to that. I wouldn't advise it, though, these days you might get pepper sprayed.

Hence why I hesitate :p

I think it would be weird. Not quite creepy, but weird. A better tack would be, "that dress/ whatever looks great on you."

Yeah, but I'm thinking more like their faces. Clothes, I've mentioned before, yeah. But just straight out "pretty," I've never done.

pretty? yeah, that would be pretty weird.

I've had people (mostly women) tell me they like my purple hair,
and that it's very attractive on me.

I somehow don't think "pretty" describes me.

Maybe Comacaze, pick out the thing you think most makes them pretty to you.
Then it will seem more genuine, and not a general come on of some kind.

Good point. I didn't think of that before.

Actually, I remember on one occasion, I was at Chili's with a buddy, and our server was absolutely gorgeous. At the end of the meal, I said to her "Listen, I'm not trying to be creepy or anything, but I just thought I should tell you that I think you look great." Better alternative?

Look for details. :shrug:

Is it her style?
An allure?
Her aura?
Is it an "all natural" kind of pretty?
It an "easy going" pretty?
A "dangerous" attractiveness?

Smile?
Eyes?
she reminds you of something?
Was it the way she interacted when she took your orders?
Sense of humor?

If you can't pick out ANYTHING specific...
you might just as well forget a relationship with a female anyway. :p

That would make my day.

Well, I suppose that the thing I notice most is a girl's eyes. I mean, aside from her body, but I think that would be even worse :p

Do what my friends and I do (they've corrupted me... but the women we oggle pretty much ask for it), just look slacked-jawed at them and collectively say, "Nice wabs".
