I’m not sure I’d tell him to stop that.

I have striking eyes as well, so it’s something I hear a lot, and … I don’t know if I could articulate the difference between the “pathetic” version and the “genuine compliment” version, but there is a difference. It probably has to do with context. For example, I’ve had it dropped out of nowhere on me in the middle of a conversation about something else. That’s … don’t do that, guys.
The last time I can remember was one of those instances. In a class, as I was telling one of my lab partners that he wasn’t doing measurements right. I’m saying “No, wait, you have to do this first and then that.” and he comes back with “Wow, your eyes are so intense!” That’s pretty obviously not a genuine compliment, that’s some kind of derailment tactic (especially since I am 100% certain the guy had no actual romantic interest in me).
Anyway I haven’t had my tea yet so that’s too many words to say that context matters, kind of a lot.

And there’s the importance of context. I was once having a conversation with a woman I knew wasn’t interested in anyone of my gender, let alone me, and asked her if she’d like to go get a cup of coffee.
I then had to explain that contrary to Seinfeld sometimes “coffee” really does mean “coffee”.

The Indian dude in the video seemed so pleased with his line. It was sort of cute.
