Giving a compliment when getting acquainted

An appropriate compliment when getting to know someone refers to a specific detail and does not require thanks in return. It is easier to notice their taste, an idea, an activity or the way they tell a story.

Terms and prices for individual actions are available in the service.

An idea for getting acquainted

Make the compliment an observation

Instead of a general judgement about appearance, you can say you liked a photograph, the humour in a description or a choice of book. Do not attribute qualities to someone that you do not yet know, and do not use a compliment as a reason to demand attention. After a warm comment, you can ask a question on the same topic. If the response is reserved, there is no need to repeat the compliment more insistently.

  1. Choose a detail you actually noticed.
  2. Say briefly what you liked about it.
  3. Move to a question if the person is comfortable talking.
In your own words

A place to start

Choose a relevant example and adapt it to your situation. Do not assume someone has interests they have not mentioned.

I liked the way you described an ordinary walk — it made me want to notice more details around me. Have you been interested in photography for long?

Your story about travelling with friends feels so warm. How do you usually choose new routes?

What else is useful to know

Do I need to compliment someone’s appearance?

No. When you first meet, paying attention to choices, interests and words often provides an easier topic for continuing the conversation.
