    • “I love the almond shape of your eyes.”
    • “The way your eyes turn up is so alluring.”

    Saying something to a complete stranger about her eyes might feel a bit creepy. Wait until you two are really vibing to sweep her off her feet with your sweet compliment.
    • Did you hit it off with a girl at a bookshop or café? In the middle of your convo, say something like "Your green eyes are stunning, by the way" to make her blush.
    • Dating or in a relationship already? Pick a moment when the two of you are alone to tell her just how much of an effect her lovely eyes have on you.

  • Question
    What should I do if the person I compliment immediately retreats? How do I stop them from running away?
    Elliana Schweibinz
    Community Answer
    If somebody runs away after you compliment them, that might mean that you have made them uncomfortable. Take steps to make them feel safe and not think that you may just be a creep. You can do this by complimenting only people who know you and by not invading their personal space. If they show any signs of discomfort around you, don't try to compliment them.

    You could compliment her by telling her how enthralling or fascinating her eyes are, or by calling them “unique” or “one of a kind” and beautiful.
