i dont think you need to stop complimenting her. you just need to change it up. throw her a curve ball. like if she is wearing a new outfit, tell her that looks nice it really brings out your eyes, smile and move on. dont wait for a response from her. if she cooks supper, tell her that was a great meal dear, smile and move on, do not wait for a response. do you understand what i mean. i bet you give her a compliment and stand and wait for her to respond, trying to make eye contact. dont do it this way. be a disireable friend. my wife has a friend that no one and i mean no one likes but my wife. you know why they are best friends, because she really strokes my w. flooding her with compliments, i sat back and watched this one night, and saw my wife really feed off this. so i thought if she can do it i could to. muddle i am just trying to give you alturnitives to your sitch, try if you like. just find someother way because the current way is not working.
