How did women respond to you when you said "Hey pretty lady"

Last was a manager at the hotel I was attending a convention at. We had done a little chat & flirting. I told her: ‘You are the prettiest girl here’. She said. ‘It takes a lot to make me smile. That did.’.

Did you smash? My money's on no. Making women laugh and smile means nothing.

I'd never open a woman with some nebulous validation like that. Puts her on the pedestal instantly.

We hung out & did some light kissing. But never closed the deal.

Frankly, OP, I read the title and thought to myself holy shyte that's cringe AF.

Are you in the US? Are you a native English speaker? My gut says no.

There are other ways to approach it - how about finding a way to be in her vicinity and say something like "That's a great dress". Gauge reaction, proceed. That or find something she's doing, offhand react to something she's saying with a witty side comment that isn't creepy, and get the venue you're at on lockdown.

Befriend the bartenders - every time you're there, tip super high on the first drink of the evening, hand it to them directly, and say "thanks for the awesome service" - tip regularly from then out. Become a regular and do it every time. The bartender, whether male or female, will start noticing you, serve you first, pour you stiff drinks, and act as a source of information, and will wing for you in most cases when you bring a woman to the bar or they notice you're with someone.
