What do guys mean when they call a girl cute?

This is like the number one compliment I get from anyone. Not even just guys. I have older women going "You're so cute!" I get called "cute" and "sweet" A LOT. I don't even think I'm sweet to be honest, but, whatever.

I get called cute by people from all ages though. I had a five year old little boy say it as I was ringing his mother up when working. And then I went back to automotives to chill with my friend on my break, and my friend's co-worker came in and smiled and was like "Don't you look cute in your little boots?" (because I always wear boots.) And then today I was walking with the guy I like, and this dude always seems to have a sorta scowl when he's working, and he's got the dark hair and all, and never even attempts to talk to anyone else. So he's got kind of a reputation for being a trouble maker, and the bosses always assume he's up to no good. Meanwhile they always treat me like a princess and I get whatever I want almost all the time. And he kinda laughed when I pointed that out and goes "Well yeah, it's a little different, I mean you're cute as shit." WHICH MADE MY HEART SOAR. I wanted to jump up and down and clap, but I didn't because I didn't wanna freak him out yet.

But what do guys mean when they stuff like that? Am I just "cute" then?
