Just walked straight up to my 6’3” jacked ass gym crush to tell him “you are so handsome, I just had to tell you” — he was a little flustered with a “thank you” as I went back to my workout but… fuck, that was empowering. Do shit that scares you.
Follow up: did this with a guy I’m not even sexually attracted to today, but said “you have fantastic legs” — I’m pretty sure I made his day by how bright he lit up. I’m not lying either, he had fantastic legs. A little praise goes a long way with people.

Omg I did the same thing!! I love open complimenting like this, no expectation back just pure joy. And also overcoming some self doubt and shi* too.
