    I've been told many times I look like Drew Barrymore, shes obviously not to everyone's' taste but I like her looks/style/personality so I take that as a compliment.

    Anyway, I was out with the boyfriend and when he was gone to the toilet some guy randomly told me I looked like Drew Barrymore, the boyf came back asked what yer man was saying to me. When I told him what yer man said my boyfriend laughed and said he must be twisted drunk.
    I told him people have said it to me for years, more laughing from him. Told me I look nothing like her. Fcuker burst me happy bubble.

    Was friends with a lady a while back, used to go on the beer every now and again and she'd stay at mine and that was all it was for years.

    Ended up seeing each other for a while. Started getting down to business and all that one day and she said to me afterwards "If I knew you had that in your pants when I was staying over back in the day this would have started ages ago". :cool:

    Needless to say as good and all as it was we were not compatible as a couple and it fizzled out and ruined the friendship :pac:

    They tarnish over time, I'm told Brasso helps.

    Mine got a good Polish once.

    (What I mean is, a Polish man may have ejaculated on them).

    A woman once said to me, "You have me fcuking worn out." I felt good after that. :)

    Another woman told me I had nice biceps and triceps but my deltoids weren't great. That was unusually specific considering she wasn't my personal trainer.

    Your boyfriend is jealous ;)

    Fellas, some of you seem to put a HUGE amount of stock in being considered good in bed.

    Been told I am too but it's down the list of compliments I've really cherished.

    I guess there's more pressure on men to be good in bed. Not sure how good a thing that is. I've always thought of great sex as being a two-way thing. If you guide your lover to doing the things that turn you on, they'll be good in bed anyway.

    Well its nice to know you have pleased her so its a nice compliment to receive. I appreciated the nice biceps compliment just as much though, as I have put a lot of effort into these guns. :cool:

    It's the biggest ego boost you can get from a women in terms of a compliment, i was smiling inside when she told me but i never felt any pressure before or after hearing it. It was nice to hear but it's certainly down the list of compliments for me. That's one persons opinion.

    Good God I just love boobs

    ...and fannies.

    sorry just had to get that off my chest (pun intended) :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,628 ✭✭✭Femme_Fatale


    I love boobs too, but not fannies. Awful looking things.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,301 ✭✭✭Daveysil15


    People can be single because they haven't met the right person, not because they're flawed and undeserving of compliments.

    I get told I'm akin to a good looking version of wayne rooney

    Back handed compliment? :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,512 ✭✭✭Muise...


    I think the best compliments are the ones you hear second-hand as they're less likely to be manipulative.

    Mine would be "she's a little bottle of fizz" heard from a mutual friend, and "Orange Glow" written beside my phone number in a then-boyfriend's notebook.

    Shaved fannies are nice. Big hairy gashes can be a turn off alright

    It is indeed, you couldn't wipe the smile off my face when I got the good in the sack compliment, wanted to high five half the town afterwards only thing is, now you would have to keep that standard up with whoever. Like you might be good with one person but another person you might not be as good. I think it's all to do with your chemistry, love, respect and general bond.

    The good listener/problem solving compliments I got from female friends was brilliant too though. That's on top of my good compliment list. Nice to know a female friend can confide and tell you whats up and you can do just as good a job as a female friend can.

    He does now according to some, perhaps they say 'a good looking version' out of niceness :D

    Very good point actually. Everyone has their off days too. You can't be good all time.

    I agree, depends on who it belongs to too though.

    Mysterious too.. I just put it in and hope for the best..

    A lass whom I massively respect first found out who I was at a meeting where she was addressing potential writers for a student paper, and said "Oh my God, you're [Ficheall]?! Everyone - this is [Ficheall], who writes [such and such...]"

    And a couple of weeks after my first open mic, a girl came up to me in a bar and said "Oh my God, are you [Ficheall]? Your song about [such and such] made me cry...]


    Any day now, I'll get an "Oh my God" compliment from a lass in the bedroom, I'm sure...

    I dunno, I think part of it is that you can hear compliments about your looks/personality day in day out because everyone sees those aspects, but obviously you only have sex with a limited number of people so the compliments you get based on that are more rare/specific. A guy high fived me during the act once which confused the **** out of me at the time and he explained after that it was a compliment, still unsure about that though, very strange!

    Generally any compliments make me happy, can't think of one that stands out
