Driving
If you’re being complimented on something that your group is stereotypically bad at, it has extra meaning. So going for “You’re such a calm and collected driver” or “You drive better than me” make a woman feel good and particularly relaxed, as there is always some stress when people do these things they “should” be bad at. Just not making remarks while a woman is driving is a good start as a lot of guys do it unconsciously but give merit when it’s deserved.
Fitness
The craze of the modern world is fitness, and girls and guys are approximately equal when it comes to the number of infected. And while other guys might be racing to tell the girl that her form isn’t as Arnold says it should be, you should go the opposite route and praise her on the progress she made. Keeping around phrases like “quite fit” and “looking ripped” will make you less likely to appear as a creep that is looking at her glutes while she squats.

Any girl that doesn’t share the common herd-mentality of being infatuated with celebrities and entertaining herself by mere partying, but has unique interests should be regarded as a national treasure and treated as such. So if a girl mentions that she’s really into architecture, history, or even wood carving, dwell deep into the topic and applaud her authenticity. You could even mention how that’s so different than other girls if it’s history or a similar “guy” topic, as she noticed too, trying to talk to other girls about it throughout her life.
Sense of Humor
Every girl knows that every guy puts “sense of humor” high on his list of qualities wanted in a woman, so telling a girl that she’s humorous is a great nod that you find her interesting in that way. But complimenting someone on being funny can be weird if expressed verbally, and not just by laughing and slapping your knee. The best way to avoid the awkwardness is not to make it big and just squeeze it in between laughs without eye contact. This might seem devious, but will actually make you look more sincere, which you ought to be.
Being Down to Earth
Everybody shames hot girls for being too stuck up and having their noses up high, so telling a girl that she looks really chill can be a nice change of fresh air for her that she will appreciate. There is a thin line to dance on here and you don’t want to make a big deal out of this, as that can make things uncomfortable. Be casual, notice how that’s cool and that you’re always glad when your stance not to judge people based on their looks pays off.
Note, never add “for a girl” to your compliments as that is a backhand compliment regardless of how much it looks like a stronger praise in your eyes. Although “…than other girls” could work for some topics.
