So where would you draw the line Lil from needy compliment fishing of the "does my bum look big in this?" variety to a straightforward asking for what you want?
Personally I don't think compliments are compliments if they are fished for. That said I do sometimes do it myself if I am feeling somewhat compliment starved.
The way I fish is by saying things like "well that was good though I say it myself" or "I must say I'm looking pretty damn hot in these jeans" and then usually H will chip in with a "oh sorry, yes it was/you look great". But it's not the same as him saying it with no prompting.
