Is Romantic Flattery Appreciated?
Flattery holds a complex role in #romantic relationships, serving as both a connection tool and a potential trust eroder. While it may seem harmless, its perception can greatly influence relationship dynamics. Research shows that only about 9% of people find compliments about their #appearance to be the most meaningful, highlighting that flattery often strays into exaggeration and self-interest. Flattery vs. Compliments: Flattery and compliments may seem alike since both involve praise, but their intentions differ. Flattery is often insincere, aimed at personal gain, whereas compliments are sincere acknowledgments that reflect genuine #appreciation. While sincere compliments build #trust and deepen connections, flattery can lead to skepticism and damage relationships. Women's Experiences: Women generally prefer authentic compliments that recognize their character, achievements, or #positive impact over superficial remarks about appearance. Compliments highlighting #intelligence, #kindness, or #creativity resonate more and foster deeper connections, emphasizing the need for mindfulness in expressing admiration. Flattery in Relationships: Flattery may be common in early #dating as individuals try to impress. However, in long-term #relationships, genuine compliments about #emotional connections and shared experiences are far more meaningful. Flattery can create uncertainty, as partners may doubt the authenticity of the praise they receive. Strengths or Weaknesses? While flattery can temporarily boost self-esteem, its effects are limited. Recognizing a partner's strengths is important, but it must be done genuinely. Compliments that acknowledge both strengths and growth areas contribute to healthier dynamics. Relationships thrive on mutual #respect and open #communication. In conclusion, while romantic flattery may seem appealing, it is essential to approach praise with sincerity. Genuine #compliments that reflect true appreciation can significantly enhance relationships, fostering trust and #intimacy that flattery cannot achieve. #psychology #romance #philosophy #love #date

I try to articulate how much I appreciate someone when they treat me right. In their DMs at first, but if the behavior continues, I have difficulty containing myself about being expressive to the community about it. I enjoy giving due credit to good people. I mean sure it's probably old news now but when I first returned here I felt so happy and genuinely cared about -- that it was too good to be true. I had to shove her away and introvert recharge myself... (yes I do it too) and grew suspicious because nobody I know is ever that nice for no reason. I thought it was a trick. Then she didn't come back. I was undeterred but as time progressed, I was crestfallen. Then a different behavior pattern emerged from the subject. So I mirrored the behavior. At this point, I thought I was playing social chess with them or something. How was I to know? I'm reacting. Finally, I realized that they never really cared. They were just using me to feel better about themself. Justification. This prompted me to reevaluate my profile and revisions were made. Now? My compliments must be earned. I am still a Jedi, and my encouragement will never cease, however I'm not going to give out my social energy to ungrateful recipients. π€ you can thank the monster infj that hides under my bed for that. ...I still can't sleep good now because of it.

Have you ever been in love? And if so what did it feel like?
I don't think I've ever truly been in love. I've heard it can feel different to different people, I've had crushes ones I never wanted to act on and ones later on that I did. I've cared deeply about others but I've never really had tingles or palpations or anything like that
