How often do women need to be told that they're beautiful? (women only)?

Question

How often is too much? too little? I want to know how often you want to hear those words.

Don't tell me everyone is different. Tell me what you like.

Answer 1

I would love to hear it every day.

My husband used to comment on my looks several times a day. We've been married 20 years, and the compliments have slowed down a lot.

But, when he does tell me I'm beautiful now, it is like "wow, you are so pretty right now", as if he has just been shocked at how pretty I am and that he just realized it. At first, this used to annoy me, but now, I see that he truly is amazed, and I usually end up blushing, feeling great, and smiling at him in a way that makes him tell me that this smile makes me even prettier.

I'm not vain ... far from it. But, I really do like to hear that I look good, especially when I feel that I look good. Somehow, it's nice to have that confirmation.

Several times a day is probably too much, depending on the security/vanity of the lady in question. Once a day is good, as long as it doesn't come across as something you're checking off your daily to-do list. It's always important to compliment her when she has dressed up special or in a way that is different than her normal day-to-day style.

Oh, and you should never compliment a woman's makeup. It's not the makeup that's important, but the way she looks. Although, it is okay to say you like the color of her lipstick ... this is something that I like to know for HIS enjoyment and pleasure.

Answer 2

I think if your with someone, married for as long as your with that person.........I would say about once a week or a couple times a month.
Its always a wonderful thing to here something like that no matter how long you know someone. But the longer you are with someone........the sweeter it is.

And this is the most important part of the answer I'm giving you. Male and female should say it to each other...not just the male to the female. Sometimes I think men need to hear it just as much if not more than the girls.

If your asking this question for personal reasons, like maybe someone needs to be told that ALOT, maybe alot or at least everyday.....then you've got a little problem. There insecure either with themselves or with you or both. If there insecure with themselves they need reasurring all the time. If your doing something thats making her feel unattractive, like making comments about how great other women look, then she's trying to reasure herself that your still attractive to her.
I know, something like this can be a little much, like having to kiss the other person all the time, hello, goodbye, any time you meet them or leave them. Anytime, all the time, it can get silly after awhile. Hope something I said helped you out!
VERY IMATURE IF YOUR GOING TO GIVE THIS ANSWER A THUMBS DOWN, I should of known !

Answer 3

I think telling a woman she is beautiful when you really see that in her, tell her at that moment. But I believe what is more important is to remind her often of the things she may do for you and her family. Tell her when her meals are good, your clean clothes smell nice, her laugh makes you happy. Things like these that are mentioned to your woman can mean a lot and show appreciation. I'd rather be told I'm appreciated than beautiful. Beauty is only skin deep but what a person 'does' it what they are made of.

Answer 4

Honestly if I was told I was beautiful at least once a day I would love it! If I go out of my way to make myself look nice for my hubby it is nice to hear him tell me he thinks I am beautiful! Any women loves to be told that! And as often as they want to tell me I am I am happy... but too much at once when it is not a normal thing might make a woman suspicious!

Answer 5

Every day. When you come home from work say. Hi beautiful.
Or when you wake up in the morning, say good morning beautiful.

Any time you have the opportunity. You should always make your wife feel that she is the only beautiful women in your eyes. If she tells you "oh stop it already". She really doesn't mean it. She loves it, as long as you say it sincerely.

Answer 6

When they are feeling down, and when they have put an effort into looking good.
Example: If you come home and your wife is sitting in front of a Meg Ryan movie with a bucket of ice cream, you might want to give a compliment.
Or if you notice it's the first time shes put on a dress in six months, let her know how nice she looks.
Other random times are nice too. But don't say it if you have alterior motives...we'll find out, and it won't be pretty.

Answer 7

My husband seems to find the perfect time to say it. I don't like to hear something too much, it doesn't seem real then. However, when I'm having a great day and my confidence is up, if someone tells me I look beautiful, it makes an impression.

Answer 8

Say it only when you are being sincere and truly mean it. A girl won't believe you if you say you think she is beautiful every single day (even if you do think she is). Although it is meant to be nice, it will start to sound robotic after a while. On the flip side, if you hardly ever say it, it can make her feel insecure about herself and question you attraction to her.

Answer 9

I dont like to be told all the time. But to hear it a few times a week is good. Just make sure that everytime you say it you really mean it. Look deep into her eyes and say it.

Answer 10

Hell I would not believe someone who said it to me everyday.
But it really means something when my husband says it when I don't expect it.
I personally feel that it ain't worth much when I have spent time getting ready for something. He can say I look nice or something approving, But it is worth so much more to me when he says it after watching me with the kids or when i am just cleaning the house.
Of cource that is just me I have a friend who feels she needs it every 5 minutes.
