I'm going to write this from a pickup perspective, so take what you get from it and apply your own morals and motives.

A lot of guys don't believe that you should pay a woman a compliment unless she's earned it. That's socially retarded thinking. A compliment is one of the best tools to get a positive emotional response out of a woman (or anyone for that matter). In fact it is one of the things that you can use that will differentiate you from looking like a player and a charming guy. If you do it right, you'll end up building rapport between you and a woman.

Imagine this. If a homeless person walked up to you and compliments you on your attire, you would probably think he's wanting something out of you. If a guy on the cover of GQ Magazine gave you the same compliment, you'd feel good about yourself because that guy has elevated you to his level. Apply this thinking when you speak to women. If you are not a physically attractive guy, you complimenting a woman on her beauty is going to go unappreciated and likely be suspicious of your motive.

When you give your first compliments to a woman make sure that the compliment has credibility coming specifically from you, whether it be her fashion sense, wit, conversation skill, or even goals in life. Your compliments should have some weight behind them that put you two on the same level. Once you are on the same level any other compliment you make from that point on will have value (just don't overdo it and become gamey).

Very well said my man. I couldn't agree with you more.

You have knack for being concise. Then again your name is JackZero. Zero room for beating around the bush. Good summary on what I what I was just thinking about compliments.

Good point. Completely agree.

I've been complimenting girls since my balls dropped and it has always worked for me.

I think that's exactly what her earning it means. At least that's what I understand by it.

Earning might be a bit misleading since it can be misinterpreted for her specifically doing thing for you so that she may now be graced with your compliments.

I see it more as showing genuine appreciation for, as you exemplify, her fashion sense, wit, conversation skill, or even goals in life. However this "earning" is a result of who she is as a person as opposed to it being a result of "what has she done for me to earn my compliments".

The latter is definitely social retardation.

A lot of the pickup posts that I read, earning means that she is being rewarded for compliance. I think what you are saying is more of deserving the compliment. Hopefully more guys will start thinking like you rather than being these guys that try to make women work hard for approval types and then question why the girl lost interest.

I don't think anybody understands your 'genius'

One minute you say it's all about looks, next post you say it could be numerous things, back and forth back and forth.

You could always start making some threads showcasing your other snippets of your genius and add some value to the forum, instead of the usual one liner confusing responses

Wow...that's not even close to what I've said. If it were anyone other than you, I'd probably try to explain it a little more.

I owe Dicemaster a huge apology for comparing you to him.

if i had notice this was for seduction beginners , i wouldn't have commend.

i seem to sway with my opinions and views because there no one single solution to all women.

sometimes its like a check list with them , they'll go down the list, to see what qualities you have . you need to have all qualities but some out power others.

biologically its all about survival/ replication. i truly sympathize with you guys and hope that you could see what im tryina show you

Write your own seduction post. I'm sure it will help out all of the advanced guys.

Hey jack great post... Simple but true. I'm confused though because I fully agree with your post and hence that makes me agree with what galist is saying. Like I think of you're not an attractive guy then complimenting her looks doesn't really affect her. But you disgree? Can you clarify?

What he is saying is that if you are not attractive and give a woman a compliment, it won't be well received. He isn't saying a word about how she looks or what the compliment is about. He's just saying that "if you not attractive/ high value and give a woman a compliment it won't be well received". I'm saying that a compliment that mirrors one of your own attributes puts you on the same playing field as the girl that you're talking to. The focus is now on something else besides how you look while at the same time giving yourself value equal or greater than hers. So an unattractive/ high value guy's compliment will be well received if it is done properly. Once that is done and you are on equal footing, you can compliment physical attractiveness because it will now be welcomed because it is coming from an equal.
