Just a little story if anyone’s interested...

A little background, I have really bad social anxiety. And for literal years the idea of speaking to a stranger made me want to cry, but I have been getting help recently and improving slowly.

When I went to see my little sister in suessical the musical ( she is 10 and was mrs mayor, and she killed it) I sat next to this little old lady named Ellen, she was from Germany but she has lived here in the states since she was in school. She has eight grand children, she lived in Egypt during the early years of her marriage, and she always carries a scarf on her. Now a few months ago I would have never considered this a possibility for me to have a conversation with a total stranger. But with lots of patients with myself I was able to meet a really cool lady, and have a really nice conversation.

If you are patient with yourself you can get better, it’s not easy but the results will be worth it. I just wanted to share, because I was really proud of myself.

These are gorgeous

Iron Bull and Blackwall both have soft chubby tummies and if you draw them with a toned 6-pack I will personally come into your house, move all your furniture 3 inches to the right and steal every one of your left shoes

Also if this is a stranger or someone who isn’t very close to you make sure you keep a respectable distance (about arms length) and keep you tone polite and positive (you look very nice in that dress vs. HEY YOU NICE DRESS). From personal experience even when the compliment isn’t threatening or sexual it is still scary when a guy invades your space to compliment you, or when they yell it at you.

Though I whole heatedly encourage guys to compliment girls, it is important to remember not to make a scene about it unless it is someone you know won’t mind.

I understand that following all these steps can be confusing and a little hard to follow but I assure you it is better to try and be polite rather than enthusiastic when talking to strangers.

I’m sorry for hijacking the post I just really wanted to put my little two cents in.

So, if im a boy and i want to compliment a girl, idk on her make up or clothes and etc, will it not make her uncomfortable? Not in a hit up way more of a i like your style, would it be ok? Im sorry if it sounds stupid sfjjxfxkhd im bad at communicating

I know what you mean. For most women, no, a general compliment won’t offend or scare them—and might actually brighten their day tremendously. I think a good rule of thumb in situations like these are if it’s sexual, don’t say it.

Respectful/safe examples:- your eyebrows look so good!- your makeup is poppin!- I love your outfit!- nice shoes!- your hair looks so pretty like that!

Disrespectful/unsafe examples:- nice tits!- your body is so sexy- you have a big ass- *wolf whistling* - I bet you’re good in bed

Given, every person is different. Some women may like being complimented on their body, but a lot of us don’t, ESPECIALLY when the compliments are coming from strangers. Basically, if your goal is to not make anyone uncomfortable or to avoid the possibility of making someone uncomfortable, the “respectful examples” are some decent ones to stick to. Anything semi-flirty or sexual can be risky.

I appreciate the fact that you cared enough to ask and don’t want to upset anyone. thank you for the kindness and consideration. have a great day! 💛

No no no! This is rape! There is no excuse for her actions!

ppl should learn basic anatomy. Physical responses does not equal consent.

First time seeing EDI in her new body must've been a big moment...
