He said I'm gorgeous with and without makeup - does this mean anything or is that a normal thing for a friend to say?
My boyfriend's friend called me gorgeous - is this normal?
Sure it's normal if you're gorgeous or if he calls you beautiful. Never knock an honest complement well meant. If people have complemented you with those words before they must be true and it's even ok if they're meant to be a little flirty. Your reply ought to just be, "Well thank you!" That's different than saying, :You're hot or you're sexy... like in, "hey hottie, or hey sexy!" When they use those kind of words there's an overtone that implies something below the line. So when getting complements, it's how you think they're meant. If your boyfriend's friend would never call you that in front of him, then you could start wondering how they're meant. LIke is he flirting with you behind his back? There's really nothing wrong with our boyfriend's friend complementing you at any time whether in fromt of your boyfriend or behind his back. The whole thing about that is what you think his intent is. Always take a complement as a complement unless you have good reason to thing they're not meant that way. .

It could just be a compliment or he may actually have the hots for you. Wait and see what else he says and if it feels like he's coming on to you just tell him how you feel toward your current boyfriend and basically thanks but, no thanks. Be nice about it though. If he persists tell your boyfriend what's going on.
Did he say this in front of your boyfriend? Did he tell your boyfriend? If not.. it's wrong & maybe he sees you as an easy target. If he has respect & value the friendship between your boyfriend & him.. he needs to keep it to himself. Don't really see how it would be appropriate.

It's only okay if you feel comfortable with it. But it wasn't smart of him. Because you have to be extremely careful. Sometimes it's a cultural thing. Other times its guys taking advantage of it to flirt with you without anybody suspecting something.

He was flirting. And yes, it's totally normal for young men close in age to you to flirt with you. If he creeps on you, tell your Dad.

Kind of breaks men's rules on girlfriends/significant others. Men are protective and it is not ok for a friend to say something like that. Maybe "you look nice" is ok but "gorgeous" is kinda too far. Depends on the relationship I guess.

Wouldn’t read to much into it unless he’s saying things like that regularly, people say stuff.. he doesn’t have to mean much by it other than he thinks you’re pretty.

Why do nice things always have to have an agenda? He was giving a compliment, unless he’s actively trying to come on to or touch you there is nothing more to it
-
Did he randomly say that? Did you ask for his opinion? Does he flirt with you? What's the context behind him saying that?
-
Chill, why are people always trying to label anything. He’s just giving a compliment, if you notice anything inappropriate then set it straight.

I think your overthinking things , he probably means nothing by it.

Yeah he probably admires your looks and it makes your boyfriend feel good knowing his friend thinks that

No not normal at all. Especially from a friend of your boyfriend. He even goes out the way to say with our without makeup.

Unless he tries hitting on you he's just giving you a compliment.

If you're actually gorgeous which I'm pretty sure you probably are, then no it means nothing but to say he finds you very attractive. But if he starts putting moves on you that's a different story.
