I told a guy today "you look so fashionable!" because he did, good looking guy literally young enough to be my kid, in a great outfit that looked intentional, and got back a "thank you!" Because he knew I was not chatting him up, just legitimately complimenting him. I could always do this with women, but not men.

Just happy, I am happy about it.

You say "this kind of attention" but go on to talk about being blown a kiss, which is veri different from what OP described.

I started dressing better and wearing bright.cors and I get compliments on my outfits now.
