As long as we're all chummy, could we pool the resources and help me with something; Cupcake comes in and I think I see something new with the way she's doing her hair but I'm not sure. It may have been something she changed last week - who knows. Do I take a chance and mention it and say how nice it looks and hope she just did it and take the risk that it may have been something I should have noticed last week? I guess if she goes there I could always say, 'Well, I was going to say something last week but I never did.' Is it better to ask if she's done something new with her hair and be wrong or to not be sure and not mention it at all? What if she did do something different and was expecting a response...

Don't mention anything if you're not sure Ken. If you comment on the hair and nothing has been done, she'll think you think she's looking a mess.KenHigg said:
Wait for the famous question. . . . . . . . "Well? - what do you think" (as she holds arms out wide and poses) and you haven't the faintest idea if its new dress / hair done / new shoes. . . . . . . what do you say?

Now Ken... you area sensible person so consider
if the gods are on your side and yoiu guess correctly that the new look is from today then you score handsomely but in the future if you get it wrong you will be accused of "just guessing" before. Okay that's what you did but you gave the impression (falsely) that you really noticed so
Either make a point of saying something a couple of days late, on the basis that now it has settled down it looks more natural and suites you better or keep totally stum and be the uncaring brute you will be called if you try to be too smart and slip up any time in the next 50 years. After that you could probably get away with failing faculities

I established very early that
a) I thought my wife looked fabulous whatever
and
b) I was too dozey to notice anything but the most extreme change
thus the situation doesn't apply, however if it did I would not mention it too quickly if i was unsure of the situation nor would I mentionit as changed but would at some point tell her that I liked her hair , or some such words.
She would point out that it was the same as always and i would say " I know but I felt that it was too long since I told you how nice it was"
OR
She would say that it was about time I noticed and I would say that because it was always nice I was trying to decide which I preferred , but I can't decide as she lways looks so nice.
Bit one must remain light on one's feet and prepared for anything,

All I can thing of would be 'Hum sweetheart, something seems different...'.
Then maybe start at the top and work your way down. 'Is it your hair? No, Hum the dress? No? Hum... New Shoes?...
Would this be suicide?

This is definitely a risk you take, but she won't buy the explanation you came up with and it'll make things worse. Go for self-deprication instead: "I can't believe I didn't notice until now. What's wrong with me?" followed by a follow-up compliment: "You look so beautiful." Getting frisky at that point probably won't get you sex but it'll convince her your not b.s.ing.KenHigg said:
Oh, hell yes, ask! When you ask if she's changed something and she says no, you just follow up with, "Wow, you just look so good today I could have sworn you changed your hair (or did any other type of thing to look extra good)". This tactic is 100% guaranteed golden; if you're right you noticed something she did; if you're wrong then you're paying extra attention to her for no reason at all. Either way you're noticing her and that will make her happy. The only way you can screw this angle up is if you're obviously full of it.KenHigg said:

If you use this one then remember that failing faculities seldom suddenly regain their youth so it tends to be a bit of a permanent status you are establishing, except of course maybe once every leap year
