Fellow Collegiettes, have you ever wondered what to say to guys and how to compliment them? Well, here it is. According to goodmenproject.com, “Men respond to praise and appreciation just as much as women do. In many cases, possibly even more so.” Which takes me to my next statement, Often we hear complimenting that comes from a guy to a woman and rarely vice versa. Men also like to hear that you notice things and that you care about them. Being someone that is there for him makes you more “visible” in a sense that it would get to a point where he is going to notice you more and separate you from his other girlfriends. Which can be a good thing, thus enhancing the relationship that you have with him. Most of the time we, as women, like to hear compliments and sometimes expect it to be them that give us the compliments, but going out of the comfort zone and expressing your emotions to him, makes you as a women, seem more as a “mature” person because you are leaving behind the idea that he has to be the one to do things, just like asking out someone, where most of us expect it to be men who should ask us out. So go on ahead and become that distinct women, who has confidence in herself and cares for that special someone! Remember, Valentines is on its way! Here are some ideas of compliments that can be said: • “You look great!” • “Is that a new haircut? Because it looks amazing!” • “Thank you for being there when, I need you.” • “I’m proud to have a man like you.” • “I profoundly trust you.” • “You have a great sense of humor.” • “Great job on your achievement!” • “You always know how to make me laugh.” • “I love how brave you are.”
