I asked my boyfriend what he likes about me and he said ‘he likes everything about me’. Is he telling the truth or just lazy to find an answer?

Hmm that's kind of a vague answer for sure. I mean it's good that he said he likes everything about you, but at the same time I can see why you might wonder if he was just being lazy.

When my girl asks me what I like about her, I always try to think of a few specific things to tell her so she knows I really pay attention, you know? Like maybe her cute smile, or how she always knows how to make me laugh, or how kind she is. Just saying everything is like, well what does everything even mean?

I'd say if you're wanting a bit more detail, maybe ask him follow up questions like "ok, but what are some of your favorite things?" Or "is there anything about my personality that you really appreciate?" See what he comes back with then.

If he still can't name anything particular, then yeah I'd be a bit suspicious he was just fobbing you off with the easy answer instead of thinking about it. But give him a chance first to elaborate before you decide he's just being lazy. Communication is important, so have an honest chat if you're still not feeling satisfied after asking more. His answers will tell you a lot!

What do you want him to say? “I love your __ (body part)”? Not every guy is Shakespeare… and I believe that historically Shakespeare wasn’t known for having any sweet words for his lady… he saved it all for the theater. 😂


If he tells you he loves everything about you … you should be happy and grateful for that guy … not whining and questioning it like this. 🙄

Why do you have to be so obsessed
