Brownie Points

Brownie points are things that you keep track of yourself when talking to your crush or someone you're into. You gain brownie points when you say nice things or joke around with them and they accept the joke. You can also lose brownie points by saying something insulting or rude that the person would most likely take offense to.

"I just gained brownie points with him!"

"I just lost attention by making that joke."

Last month I went to the garden show with her and this month we're having her parents over for dinner. I'm pretty sure I've got enough brownie points to have her ass everyday for a week!
