Opinions on uninviting friend’s boyfriend after a creepy compliment?
NTA: Inappropriate compliment insulted his girlfriend. Dude sucks.
“Hey girl, nice ****!” is also a compliment, but it’s still usually going to get you uninvited from social events if you say it to someone that you aren’t actively in a sexual or romantic relationship with. Sexual harassment is very often carried out through some sort of “compliment.” It’s not hard to understand unless you’re being willfully obtuse like Lucy is.
