Dollymarie Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 If this is a serious thread, and you didn't particularly like how she looked, there are nice ways of saying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septic Peg Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 My hubby always tells me the truth about how I look. So I always call him a ginger *****. Honesty is always the best policy. Been married 10 years and that's how we roll... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answers Good Bad Indifferent. I'm guessing option 3 is best unless someone looks awful or good better to say someone looks bad so they don't embarrass themselves when they go out...IMHO No point in dressing it up, harsh or not the answer is the answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollymarie Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 I'm not saying they shouldn't be honest but there are ways of doing that for example "how do I look?" "Ok, but I like you much better in *insert alternative outfit*" I'm just saying there are better ways of saying something than being blunt that's all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Ok, but I like you much better in *insert alternative outfit*" I'm just saying there are better ways of saying something than being blunt that's all all depends on your relationship I guess. I have always been quite blunt,but the other half has always been appreciative of it, as she knows and can rely on the opinion. Now I wouldn't be blunt in public, that is very different.. "How do I look?" " a bit chavvy" "Rough as a ducks arse" " Beautiful" "Stunning" now if you heard any of those from the same person, would the good ones mean a lot more when you know the first 2 could be the answer... rather than you look okay,or you look great? I my mind when you hear the words beautiful and stunning,its should mean a lot more than passable. At the end of the day it is all about the finished article,clearly as the person is your other half you are generally attracted to them, so to make an impression the is must be something you are going to or someone you are going to see, so brutal honesty is the way to go... but that is probably just a man thing.

Dollymarie Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Fair enough. No bugger tells me I look nice cos I've been single forever so I guess I was just seeing it from the female point of view that I don't know anyone who wouldn't at least attempt to make themselves look presentable whether you're going out to dinner or going to put the bins out, so someone telling you otherwise would be hurtful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the other half told me I was a lard arse, i would probably have to agree, I wouldn't be hurt by it, but knowing she thought that may make me do something about it rather than if she she said, " no I like you the way your are, in attempt to make me feel better.

Barrs Court Red Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 My stock answer to the wife is "I would" which is true and I don't have to tell her that her choice of attire is abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
