What’s up, gentlemen? Today, I want to share a powerful tip for approaching women in public. This technique works in any conversation, but it’s especially effective when talking to strangers, where trust and rapport don’t exist yet.
When you approach a woman, her defenses are often up. She doesn’t know you, may not trust you, and might not even be immediately attracted to you. That’s why your first priority is bringing those defenses down so you can create a space for genuine connection and flirting.
The best way to do that? Be authentic. And that’s where the “Wow Compliment” comes in.
What Is a Wow Compliment?
The Wow Compliment is a spontaneous, mid-conversation compliment that feels genuine and unexpected. Unlike generic compliments at the start of an interaction, this one catches her (and you) by surprise, making it feel authentic and real.Here’s how it works:
Start with a casual conversation. Ask her what she’s up to, where she’s from, or how her night is going.
When the moment feels right, interrupt yourself with a compliment. For example, as she’s finishing a sentence, you could say, “Wow, you have a great smile,” with a genuinely surprised expression.
Immediately steer the conversation back to where it was before. Something like:
“Wow, you have a great smile.”
“Oh, thanks.”
“You’re welcome. Anyway, you were saying you’re from Denver?”
The key here is to keep it brief—stick and move. Don’t linger on the compliment. This delivery makes it seem like her smile (or eyes, or hair) struck you so deeply that you had to comment, but you’re not dwelling on it.
Why It Works
Women love compliments that feel authentic and in-the-moment. A Wow Compliment feels like a genuine realization, not a pre-rehearsed line. This makes her feel special and seen, without overwhelming her with flattery.Contrast this with a generic opener like, “Hey, I thought you were cute, so I wanted to say hi.” While it works in some situations, it doesn’t leave room for a higher-impact compliment later. Plus, dropping too many compliments can come off as try-hard.
Instead, start with a simple, confident approach: “Hi, I saw you and wanted to come say hello. How’s your night going?” Then, as the conversation flows, drop the Wow Compliment when the timing is right.
Tips for Success
Play with the timing: Sometimes, I’ll say, “Wow,” and wait for her to ask, “What?” before delivering the compliment.Nail your tone and expression: Your delivery should feel like even you were surprised by your own comment. This adds charm and makes the interaction feel more authentic.
