Something that most men are incapable of - but something I have experienced a couple of times. When the passing man whispers into your ear, "You are so beautiful," then disappears in the crowd.

Now there is a compliment to be treasured.
It is not freaky. It is not a sexual advance. It is a comment. And it is one that has the ability to speed the pulse and give you a confidence you couldn't anticipate.
Uhh... I'm going to have to disagree here. I feel pretty strongly that if a man is close enough to me to whisper in my ear, I had better have invited him there. I don't think the words "tact" and "dignity" apply to a stranger who would invade my personal space, even if only for a moment. But maybe that's just because when I was a teenager, the people who would whisper in my ear in a crowd would also be the ones to cop a feel and run away before I could see who did it.
