She's standing there looking drop-dead gorgeous, and all words flee your brain...except sexy. There's got to be a way to let her know how much she turns you on besides telling her directly that you think she's sexy, right? But what? Turns out, there are a lot of unique ways to let your lady know she's got your jimmies in a twist, from the romantic to the downright dirty. To give you some inspiration, we’ve compiled a list of different things to say to her to let her know she’s desirable, special, and oh, so sexy.

Things You Should Know

  • Make her feel sexy by complimenting her on both physical and non-physical traits.
  • Talk dirty: let her know all the things she does that drive you wild in bed and all the sexual things you want to do with her.
  • Show her how much you desire her by making plans to take her out (or stay in) for a fun date night together.
  • Tell her in plain terms that you think she's sexy. Being forthright will seem genuine and more passionate than elaborate compliments.

    Many people’s go-to for telling a woman she’s sexy is to tell her that she’s, well, sexy. The word has power, but it gets old quick. (And if you’re trying to hit on a girl you’re not involved with yet, sometimes the word “sexy” can be too forward.) But there are lots of synonyms for “sexy” that are perfect for letting her know you find her attractive. Keep it elegant with “You’re ravishing” or be more forthright with “You’re so hot.” [1]
    • “You’re captivating”
    • “You’re absolutely irresistible.”
    • “You're stunning."
    • “You’re the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen.”

    • "I can't keep my hands off you."
    • "You're driving me wild."
    • "I can't wait for tonight, you sultry thing."

    There's nothing wrong with being bold and direct about your feelings, but sometimes, it's what's left unsaid that hits the hardest. Really amp up the sexual tension by being intentionally vague or understated, and let your body language do the talking: undress her with your eyes, bite your lip, or gently brush her shoulder.
    • "You're indescribable."
    • "I don't know what it is about you."
    • "You're OK, kid."
    • "You're something, all right."

    Whether it’s her eyes, her smile, or her rear end, specific compliments can feel more genuine than simply “You’re hot” (but there’s nothing wrong with an occasional “You’re hot”!). Of course, use discretion: for instance, if you’re not involved with a girl, probably best to avoid “Great butt!”
    • “Your smile drives me crazy.”
    • “I want to lick your freckles.”
    • “Whenever you bend over I go wild.”
    • “I lose control at the sound of your laugh.”

    She’s sure to appreciate that you find her physically attractive, but it’s also important for people to feel that their non-physical attributes are alluring, as well. Compliment her on her intellect, her kindness, her work ethic, or her passion.
    • “You drive me wild when you get excited about something.”
    • “Your passion is just intoxicating.”
    • “I could listen to you talk about neuroscience all day.”
    • “When I see you in the zone, it turns me on so much.”

    • “I haven’t been able to stop wondering what you were up to.”

    Telling her she’s sexy will make her feel great, but don’t stop there: show her how excited you are to be with her by making plans to take her out (or stay in) and shower her with a good time. (Planning special dates is particularly important if you’ve been in a relationship for a while and the “honeymoon” period has worn off!)
    • “I’m dying to see you in a cocktail dress. Let’s hit the bar.”
    • “Let’s go show you off to the world.”
    • “Get your coat: we’re going out for dinner at that fancy new restaurant.”
    • “I’m making you dinner: we’re having a night in tonight. And after dinner? Who knows…”

    While it’s good to vary how you compliment your partner, there’s nothing wrong with not beating it around the bush once in a while. In fact, getting right to the point can have the effect of seeming more genuine, less cheesy, and more passionate.
    • “I need you.”
    • “You turn me on so much.”
    • “I’m desperate for you.”
    • “You’re so sexy.” (Hey, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.)
