Question: What do yall actually think if a guy randomly compliments you? Is the default assumption that he’s a creep? Genuinely curious

Depends on how it’s done, it really depends on tone, demeanor, and what is being complimented. Hair and eyes are usually fine with body parts but in general it’s better to compliment things like clothes, makeup, glasses, or personality. If it seems like there are strings attached it will come off creepy.

I’ll think he’s being flirty and I flirt back if I’m interested. If I’m not, I’ll just say thank you

No, if it’s in a non-invasive way and you’re not pushing it in a creepy way it’s fine. I once had a guy say “I mean this respectfully and with no extra intentions, but you’re so beautiful” and that was probably the nicest compliment I’ve ever gotten

Depends on how it is worded. There’s a difference between “that outfit looks great!” and “you look hot.”
