[QUOTE="ForceUser, post: 2762308, member: 2785"] If I were single, I would have likely done something similar, Rel. I'd have probably asked her out, too. If I were in a relationship, I would have been thankful and appreciative, and I would have expressed that sincerely. But I probably would not have paid her the compliment. I'm not saying that it was wrong for you to do so, but I know that I would have felt a bit disloyal to my awesome other had I done it. I don't like feeling disloyal. I feel as though there's a decorum I need to follow when I'm in a relationship, and flirting would have been a breach of decorum in my internal world. How do I know this? Well, because I've done it and itr made me feel bad afterward. :p On a related note, I'm with Rel on the "hot chick" thing. Actually, I've got a hang-up about hot chicks that goes all the way back to high school and getting embarassed by some of them in public at the tender age of "just realized what a penis was used for." Now I just assume that 1) she has a boyfriend, 2) guys fall all over her constantly, and I'm not going to be one of [i]those[/i] guys, and 3) she's probably coasted through life on her looks and, thus, isn't worth the time of day anyway. Finally, to be brutally honest, I still have a juvenile complex that tells me that I can't get a hot chick, so I shouldn't try, because they'll just reject me because I'm not handsome enough or rich enough. This has really bit me in the butt a couple of times in my life when a smoking hot gal [i]with[/i] a personality actually [i]was[/i] interested, and I blew her off as a matter of course. Doh! That's what I get for stereotyping people. [/QUOTE]
