Just putting that out there based on my experience doing the same thing. Never again--it only took me one bad apple to put a moratorium on complimenting a man's physical appearance. Really I think it's sad. Who doesn't want to hear good things about himself? For me and some others, it's just a game, you don't take it seriously. Unfortunately some take it way too seriously, and then of course you're to blame because you "led him on."
.
Well, that is food for thought Rayah, I hadn't thought about that because I don't beleive I would be in the position to be misunderstood in that dynamic.
If any of these simple exchanges turn into anything other than complimenting someone on their looks, then I would be surprised.
If I end up going on a date with someone, I would think there would be plenty of time to suss their mental stability before being alone with them and being in a vulnerable position with them.
I have no intention of turning my back on people who appreciate it, but, it isn't a gaurantee of access either.

I think that in my current situation, if a woman approached me with romantic intentions, I'd completely blow her out or go nuclear rejection on her and make a big scene...call her creepy and the like.

Sadistic? Yeah, maybe...but it would be a cool way to score one for the boys.

PLEASE DON'T DO THAT. It gives the rest of us guys a bad name. We already have enough chips stacked against us. Don't put another chip on and cause us to collapse!

This is the first time I've heard "not scoring" called "scoring."

If they are with another woman I will compliment her on her good taste in men.
Then I'm going to report back to CD with the results...that will be March the 18th.
How many think that the guys will look at me like I just stepped off a spaceship?
How many think the guys will laugh in my face and walk away?
How many will get out a peice of paper and a pen and start exchanging phone numbers?
How many of them with women, will the woman present slap me?

To make it a real experiment, lets say I have to go for a quota of 25 guys total...
Ready, set.... GO
It's kind of the like the party game.

I'm a natural introvert, so I played a little game with myself at parties. I would force myself to talk to every single person at the party, regardless of whether I knew them or not. And I would avoid talking about myself. Instead, I'd talk about them. Funny, but people would say what a great conversationalist I was. You'll be amazed when you do something similar.

There will be some guys who think you're ready for a sojourn to the Motel 6. There will be others who will take it at face value, just conversation.

This assumes that I regard a "collapse" as an undesirable outcome, when in fact I don't.

Yeah, that's what I am thinking... if I was that woman (or a woman who saw that) I would say, "screw asking men out if that's how they act." Personally, I've never seen a woman go nuclear on a man while saying no other than in a movie or when a man was drunk or something and ignored the first 2 or 3 "nos". Most of the women I know just lie and say they have a boyfriend or something (to soften the blow) or just say, "no thank you, I am not interested." Then again, most of my girlfriends are like me... laid back and try to be kind to people.

Baaahahaha. Touché, that's an awesome rebuttal. /not sarc

But I'm in exactly the frame of mind to turn that nomenclature on it's head.

So you would do that to someone who showed genuine interest, just to prove some sort of point, even though *I* and many, many, many other women (especially those of us who are shy/socially awkward) have never gone "nuclear" on a man showing interest in us?


And this helps you with women......how?
