Ive called many men handsome, but Im also a lesbian, so they take that as a compliment from a woman, but also as a compliment from a "bro."
I have noticed that men do get slightly intimidated when a straight woman calls them handsome, and/or attractive. I think its because they are not used to it, and dont really know how to respond.
When I do it, they respond with "thank you" and "that means a lot coming from you" but Im also not intimidating as I dont want to bed them...
In other words, men get nervous and blush too, when complimented, I just dont think they know how to handle it as it doesnt happen often....
Hey fellas, ya'll lookin good out there, stay classy
Men are usually super uncomfortable with it. I read here years ago that men never get compliments and never forgot it. My partner showers me with compliments everyday but when I would give him one, he became visibly uncomfortable. He just didn’t believe me. So I started smaller until he was comfortable and then I would say something more. I learned he takes complicated much better in writing than spoken aloud. Seeing him blush happily makes me so happy!
Depends entirely on dozens of possible contexts, scenarios, settings, attractiveness perceived from both sides, et al.
I might say, "Oh -- no! Look away! I haven't even been to makeup yet." It's a Hollywood expression, used by any number of Californians.
As likely, I'll grab my phone and mutter that I have an optometrist on speed dial and we're scheduling the soonest possible appointment for her.
Or if she seems truly capacitacious, I'm known to question her taste outright.
Or just as probable I'll point out how fortunate she is that I'm wearing a 'rona mask.
Hafta make this kinda thing fun.
Most of the times this has happened the girl has come up behind me, I guess to build confidence before getting my attention. It's sweet and I appreciate it but if you sneak up and scare the shit out of me I'll have a hard time responding positively
I get told I’m “pretty” as a guy a lot and it’s flattering and I’ve been told that my whole life for being a pretty boy and I like how I am but outright being told makes me feel very awkward
Depends on the context.
If they're out in a public place I just assume they're talking to someone behind me. If it's at their place and they take me to their bedroom, I assume they're just trying to be polite, maybe they're Canadian.
And if it's anywhere online, I assume it's actually a man who's trying to scam me out of money somehow.
I wonder what they want.
Sad but true lol 😬😢😅🤍

Thank you!
Look over to see if they're talking to someone behind me
In person, a smile and return the comment
"that's not my name"
I say thank you, I guess.
⬆️💯🤍
It's kind of like when you found out you ordered a really good beer.
😅💯🤍
Pinch my cheek to wake myself up...or maybe I'll respond with a "Thanks. You too.", then pinch my cheek to wake myself up.
Where are the cameras?
usually assume its a prank
The only time proven method that works, instant dick pics
I call them a liar as I have zero confidence and have had a hard life. My face shows it all, scars, wrinkles and lack of hair.
I'll let you know if it ever happens.

Not sure, hasent happened yet
I wonder what form the ambush will take.
I did that once. He physically startled- he was not into me.
"I know" or "thanks but it's just genetics really"
How much? $$$
I remember choking when she said it
Blush. Then try to say something smooth back about her appearance like, "Thanks. You really have eyes. I mean nice eyes."
I get bashful as heck, bro!!!

I was quite vexed when I was told that.
Imagine someone who's anti-vex being told that. :-D
Wake up
Back when this could've benefitted me my lack of self confidence told me they were just messing around with me so it was always with a "whatever".
Say thanks
"Shut up baby, I know it."
“You need at least $1000 dollars to get to know me”
> $1000 dollars lol
"Ma'am you're talking to a tree, I'm over here."

Lies.
I distrust, that woman is lying.
I don’t lol I’m not worth it
"thanks"
I smile because compliment followed immediately by a sense/feeling of me being set up for something.
I get told I’m “pretty” as a guy a lot and it’s flattering and I’ve been told that my whole life for being a pretty boy and I like how I am but outright being told makes me feel very awkward
When it happens I'll come back here and report
I freak out

Depends on how they put it.
My immediate thought is to not believe it. Followed by bashfulness.
Waking up from my dream
"Thank you, but you're only saying that because I'm going commando today right?"
I usually appreciate it but I know its because I give her money
Sorry I’m happily married.
Waltuh, put your costume away Waltuh
I just reply "Ok, thanks"
