I’m always searching for new and creative ways to tell those I love just what they mean to me. I’ve grown bored with all the canned phrases: “You’re amazing!” “You’re stunning!” “I love you!” Yawn. Compliments such as these are used so often they lack emotion. In order to give a heartfelt declaration that certain jenesaisquoi—I think your word choice really needs to pack a punch that people will notice.
My two favorites at this time are:
1) If I were a lesbian, I would pick you.
2) You are so great, I could stalk you. (I usually reserve this for men)
Think about it ladies. If another woman said that to you, wouldn’t you be elated? I would. I think it’s the highest ranking compliment one woman can pay another. That teeny tiny phrase encompasses it all: you’re brilliant, funny, beautiful, interesting…I can’t get enough of your awesomeness!
And the stalking comment is equally tight. I mean, what says I love you like wanting to know and see everything a person does 24/7? Nothing. It’s the ultimate.
Now get out there and go make some new friends!!!!!!!
