    I once told a man his long hair was really pretty. Thought about it later that dudes probably don’t like being called pretty. Ugh.

      Guys don’t get compliments. Id almost bet my pretty hair that your interaction with him is something he still thinks about sometimes.

      An ex called me beautiful and it was obviously very memorable as evidenced by my still remembering it. Another said I have amazing, seductive-lady-in-a-makeup-commercial eyelashes (but mostly only on one eye). That one was less moving, but still funny/nice-ish/I didn’t totally hate it. I just mean you might be surprised. Most guys won’t be picky about compliments. We’re like parched flowers.
