disagree  Schloesser: and that's the problem, it's only for the event, but it has to be more neutral so that she thinks that he means it for her, not for her clothes

  -> no need for a "disagree", i dunno the guy or the girl or the occasion, gee
agree  Helga CF

agree  Aniello Scognamiglio (X): @Schloesser: in fact, the disagree is not appropriate. Bezaubernd does not necessarily refer to clothes!

Gedanken ohne Punktanspruch!


Explanation:
Generell extrem schwer zu beantworten.
Je nachdem, wer das zu wem sagt, wie alt die Beteiligten sind und ob zwischen den beiden ein gewisser Altersunterschied besteht oder nicht sowie in welcher Situation sie sich befinden udn ob sie sich kennen oder nicht....

Zwischen:
"Sie sehen bezaubernd aus" und
"Du bist eine absolut geile Bratze"
ist alles denkbar...

Ohne konkreten Kontext, der alle Aspekte des menschlichen Sozialverhaltens berücksichtigt, kaum optimal zu beantworten...

7 mins
  -> Wahrscheinlich. Aber Zweifel an der Absolutheit einer Antwort sollte man in solchen Fällen schon wecken...
agree  Klaus Herrmann: Außerdem beachten: sind es -Nichtrauchende Singles, Rauchende Singles, -nicht verheiratete, rauchende, gemeinsam lebende Vegetarier ohne Kinder, aber mit Rentenanspruch, -Homosexuelle, -Männergruppen, -Frauengruppen, -Friedensbewegte, alkoholisierte...
16 mins
  -> Ich wusste, du verstehst mich!!!
agree  Edith Kelly: Bei mir bist du scheen ......
57 mins
neutral  Aniello Scognamiglio (X): wieso extrem schwer zu beantworten? Bin da anderer Meinung. Joshy will einfach zu einem Mädel sagen, daß sie wunderschön ist. Mehr nicht. // Joshy schreibt: "i need to tell a girl she is very beautiful".
