She has a twin sister, and she is the cooler one (IMO), but she left some message online earlier saying something like "I bet if I was more attractive I wouldn't be so bored." Now she's not the MOST UNBELIEVABLY GORGEOUS GIRL IN THE WORLD, but she's pretty damn cute and I sort of like her...I just don't know the best way to word this for her. I don't want to say "pretty", because that seems to have a more negative connotation than I'd thought, and I think "gorgeous" is a bit too elegant of a word to use to describe her style, so I'm sort of stuck. I just don't want to say anything that may likely offend her. I've been out of the game for a while...haven't been with anyone in about 2.5yrs, and we get along pretty well, so I don't know exactly how to go about this. Thanks for the input anyone.
