[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guy (happily married Dad) posting. I may be confused. If I tell a woman I like her earrings, is that flirting? Does it matter if she is working the Checkout at my local bagel place, versus she is a parent of one of my kids’ classmates, versus someone who works in my building?  I always thought I was just being friendly, but maybe you’re telling me I’m flirting without realizing it (or at least you think I’m flirting). If I tell you I like your earrings, it’s because I like them, not because I want to make out with you.

If you would compliment a man's jewelry then maybe you're just being nice. If you wouldn't, then you're absolutely flirting by mentioning earrings because there is a gendered, sexual component to your flattery.[/quote]

NP. Another guy here. Oh good. I’m always telling my make coworkers how I like their shirts or shoes as well as if a female coworker has a nice scarf or skirt.

And generally it’s great between people I know.

I did have the young and pretty intern compliment my shirt while giving me intense eye contact and it honestly flustered me to the point I kind of avoid her b/c I suddenly felt disarmingly attracted to her.  I don’t work directly with her so it’s not a professional issue, but I am just afraid I will be obvious in my attraction.

I’m not good looking enough to have that effect on anyone but I do keep compliments to people I know well. [/quote]
