Coming in late here, but this is very important. Screw the theory of "what she don't know won't hurt her". I don't know about other women but honesty is a big part of my relationship expectations. I am honest with my husband about most everything. Although I find it hard to be honest about what's bugging me cause it usually comes off insulting to him. Not intentionally.
There's nothing wrong with complimenting someone. In fact, more people should do it more often. I used to get jealous of my husbands actions pretty bad, but we had bad communication then. I also found out later some of the "what she don't know won't hurt her" things and it hurt worse than it would have had I known at the time.
In short, Mista Collins has it right. Best to be open with the SO. For no other reason than it won't come back and hit you in the bum.
