What does it mean if a guy calls a girl 'adorable'?

Question

The guy I like told my friend he thinks I'm adorable. What does that mean? Is it a good thing?

Tamikaze · Accepted Answer

It isn't a bad thing but if you are wondering if it means he wants to date you or kiss you, well hard to say.

1. It sounds a little condescending, like something you would call a small child.

2. It is just one simple comment, so you would be putting too much into analyzing it's meaning when it could mean very little.

Pay attention to #2. Women tend to put way too much emphasis on little gestures and words when it comes to deciphering a guy's thoughts. Guys just really don't plan out their actions like that. They can say and do things with little thought as to what it might make a girl think.

Well it's a good thing but also not maybe the thing you would necessarily like to hear from a guy, if you like him anyways. But it is a big term these days. So maybe depending on his tone it could mean different things.

No it's a horrible, terrible, awful thing! Now if he said you were ugly, that would be wonderful! *sigh*

There is this girl I know who is extremely good looking, but she gets angry when I call her things like cute or adorable.

It's not the way she looks, but she has these funny/ childish antics and hand motions that makes me feel like I'm talking to a kid in a really good looking girls body.

It's a good thing. But you probably wanted to be called hot or pretty or something? Maybe he's too old for you.

thats probably one of the best compliments you can get from a str8 guy, it means your beatiful with a young glow to you...your a very bubbly character I'm guessin...lots of smiles, all of which are a good look...

unless your lyk 4yrs plus younger than him, then wot he's saying is...uve got potential, ild probably bang you now if it wos legal...or if it didn't mean losing respect from my friends and associates looool

regards

When they bite their bottom lip, when they do the girly squeal, when they're happy, when they giggle, when they blush, when they cry, when they just look into your eyes, when they're embarrassed, there are a lot lol.

Snar87 · Answer

When a guy calls you adorable, you're super cute like a little girl or a kitty or puppy. It's the kiss of death for girls. More so than "You're one of the guys".

It's saying "awww, you're so sweet" to a guy. Not cool.

PlsWork · Answer

It means that you are adorable to him, not much to add there.

Some of the things my ex did was bury her head in my chest when embarrassed. Also wrapping herself around my arm or grab my waist and stare at me till like a surfer

Eryxx · Answer

He's complementing you. It's just a polite gesture.

Rose058 · Answer

My question is: what if they call you adorable, but then say that they didn’t mean it as cute. They say that cute and adorable aren’t synonyms to them when describing a girl. They are. Could they still like you? Are they trying to cover it up?

Anonymous · Answer

Yes. And because GaG thinks that's too short, let me say it again: Yes. It's certainly "I think you're adorable" behaviour.

medical2412 · Answer

Well if I had a girl I would call her cute or adorable because its more respectful and better then sexy or hot

LilEmo123 · Answer

My bf and ex also used to call me the same, when you get the answer tell me the same. :P

Aiko_E_Lara · Answer

*Sigh* It means you're adorable... Google the meaning of it. Why would it be something else?

BeyondPlusUltra · Answer

Take the leap, only bad thing that can happen is him calling you adorable again.

Robertjohn13 · Answer

Sometimes it means he's into you other times he's being polite

Anonymous · Answer

Yes. He seems to be into you. You could look out for more signs like longer eye contact, elevated heartbeat and dilated pupils hen with you. Never hurry wih a relationship.
