Whenever I get compliments from non-greeks(on those rare occasions that I pull the 'nalia out), I say thanks and keep it moving. It doesn't generally generate more conversation.
While I would tend to think that such a compliment from a young lady would suggest interest, with me it would not be the most effective way. Like several of you have said, where can such an opener really lead? I certainly learned different ways to indicate my interest in my time.
Of course, as Sen said, things do work differently in different parts. A savvy interest looks before she leaps.
