A man paid you a compliment but you have no idea what he's trying to say? Only understandable - compliment is not the same compliment. We'll tell you what he really means with his kind words.
Facebook WhatsApp Mail TwitterMen who wear their hearts on their sleeves are about as common as unicorns: very, very rare. Compliments from them are about as rare. And then, of all things, when they make them, we often don't know how to classify them. Do they mean what they say? Or is it completely different? Or do they just want to show us our mistakes in a charming way? High time for some translations...
Men understand: that's what they mean with their compliments
"You're so cute!"
"Cute" do you actually think of cute puppies or small babies? No! Men say that when they think you're really, really cute. And if they could imagine a future with you because you are the famous "cute girl next door". Just like "Betty Cooper" from the hit series "Riverdale".
"You're the best!"
Admittedly, compliments like this could also be given to your best friend - and that's why it probably has a stale aftertaste. But this compliment is actually meant in a very positive way. Because all he wants to say is that he can rely on you and that you make him happy with your actions.
"You're driving me crazy..."
Have you just met or have you been dating for a while? In any case, there is something passionate about this statement. Basically, what he means by that is that he can't think straight in your presence and would like to kiss you all the time. Did you just meet each other now? Then he's probably out for something harmless...
"You can steal horses with you!"
Even if that's what you usually say to your friends, there could be more to it than that. In any case, he is already aware that he can have a lot of fun with you - and also likes to spend time with you. But if he doesn't make any further advances, he's actually only interested in a good friendship.

Men's compliments: also read between the lines
"You're beautiful!"
Anyone who has heard this compliment has clearly won - oh, what, the jackpot cracked! Because beauty is not only related to appearance, but also to character. That means: He thinks you look great, but also appreciates your intelligence. In his eyes you have absolute dream woman qualities.
"I've never met anyone like you!"
One thing is certain: you are something very special to him. And you're clearly different from all his other ex-girlfriends. That's a good sign, after all he's not with any of them anymore. To be on the safe side, however, you should pay attention to his tone of voice with this compliment. If he says it a little unsure, maybe he has never met anyone who is as crazy as you are. Now it's time to find out!
"You have a great sense of humor!"
Although that may sound disappointing, he doesn't mean that you're funny enough to make him laugh all the time. No! Rather, he's happy that there's finally someone in his life who laughs at his jokes - and that makes him happy. As simple as that.
"Your girlfriends are awesome!"
Meeting best friends is exciting for everyone involved. Your girls probably pestered him with questions and I'm sure he really thinks they're really nice. But seeing her all the time now doesn't have to be the case. He'll be able to get along with them somehow because of you - even if he's not as big a fan of theirs as you are.
