Guys: What compliments do you like to hear?

[Anonymous]

We always talk about women receiving compliments, but I hear men also complaining about how they never receive compliments. So what compliments do you like to hear? What do you like to be complimented on?

[MrOracle]

It's not entirely true that men never get compliments - we do, but they are almost always based on what we have accomplished - whether we fixed a car or got a promotion at work or whatever, we get compliments on our deeds.

What most men rarely or never receive are PERSONAL compliments, whether that's about our looks, our clothes/style, or our character. We are almost never recognized as being a good person or for being attractive in some way. Of course, the exceptionally good-looking guys get those compliments, but the bottom 90% of guys almost never get them.

I've seen a big, strong man have to leave a room because a woman gave him a personal compliment and he broke down and couldn't handle it - having gone years without a personal compliment. You would be surprised at how far a simple compliment can get you in a relationship.

That’s very helpful, I’ll keep it in mind. Although I never really thought there was a difference with compliments and now it makes sense why some guys react differently to personal compliments. Thank you for sharing 😊

[JSmuve]

I'd like any compliment on my overall attractiveness, tbh. But I honestly don't know what I'd do if a woman gave me one besides saying a gratuitous "thanks". I doubt I'd believe her anyways because words without actions don't really mean much and we all know that women lie. So a compliment wouldn't have much impact if it's not backed up by any follow-through.

[Man-O-Metal]

My eyes, personality, work ethic, faith, ambition, determination. As you can probably tell from my compliment preferences, I just want to be noticed. Fortunately, there are a few girls that give me these compliments. It's just not as often as I'd like. I believe I am a very fun person to be around, I just don't get handed compliments as often as I give them.

[MrHopper]

Same as women get, I think i can recall the compliments that really hit on one hand. People often say things like "dapper" or "smart" but it seems quite shallow compliment

[dolemite89]

i don’t really trust when women give me compliments so i don’t think there’s a good answer to this question 😂

[Asker]

Wow 🤣 may I ask why don’t you trust women when they compliment you?

[dolemite89]

i find that women usually only give compliments in the hopes that you will reciprocate with a compliment to them or if they’re trying to get something they want.

[Asker]

That’s a valid statement but I’d say is not like that with every woman. Now I have a feeling that the women that have complimented you actually likes you because women are always expecting the compliments first and so doing it is out of the norm unless there are special feelings involved. Personally if I find something beautiful in your personality, your physique or things you do, I’ll complimented you because I’d think you are worth it and without any expectations. So simply take the compliments, don’t pay them back and then you’ll tell if she likes you and if she’s genuine about it 😊

[dolemite89]

you sound genuine, ur not from the states r u? 😅

[Asker]

No I’m not, I’m from El Salvador 😊 how were you able to tell? 😑😁

[dolemite89]

of course you are 😅 women from a lot of other countries are usually more genuine and sincere in their intentions and mean well in general. girls in the states are not really sincere and more difficult lol. you should follow me on here i like ur attitude 🙂

[Asker]

Oh, that’s very nice of you to say and sad at the same time because I know not all women in the States are dishonest with their intentions. And sure, I’ll follow, I like your honesty and attitude too 😊

i was dating a tall girl amd i went to kiss her and stepped off the step and instead of being face to face we were face to breast. she said "you're short" i said "just as short as the last few times we went out" she said "i guess i never noticed" it was hard not to notice im 5'5" and she is 5'10"

[serious]

I totally dislike all types of compliments. I never wish to hear any from anyone.

However that being said, I don't control anyone's actions so people can compliment me if they want too, anybody can but I will not respond, I will not say anything meaning I will give a deaf ear to it and ignore it.

[Asker]

Okay, that is a personal choice and it’s acceptable. Thank you for your opinion and for keeping true to yourself 😁

[serious]

It was a good question also.

[Asker]

@MrOracle Gotcha!! Thank you for pointing that out! 😊👍🏼

[Avicenna]

I like to be complimented on my personality and for being enjoyable to talk to/be around. And if a woman really wants to express interest, those compliments will definitely do it.

[Kaamraj]

I do a lot of things, I'd like to feel appreciated. But I am yet to receive a compliment from a woman and not holding my breath for it either.

[JustiReno]

Anything sincere and not cringe, maybe all people like compliments but too much can be too much

maybe: yummy

[DarkWinterNights]

I remember every compliment my truck has gotten. Really anything as long as it’s genuine will typically make our day.

[garykingg]

When we are having sex just say in the middle of intercourse "YOU ARE THE BIGGEST I EVER HAD" - don't ask why.

[Blueeyes81]

I don't really like compliments. We so rarely get them that I get caught off guard and don't know how to respond.

[EaterPeter]

You're such a f***er. You f**k very good baby. I love the way you do me. You're good with doing such and such thing. You d*** feels very good inside me. I love the way you eat my pu**y

[Curiouslad123]

You have nice arms haha, your sweet I appreciate the effort you put in. Your handsome things like these would be nice

[GrapeApe98]

Anything, like literally anything. Any genuine positivity a woman gives a man is a blessing that he'll remember 'til the day he dies.

[Neil_12]

Guys loves to hear about their body shape (if he is a excercise enthusiast), about their hair style. For an introvert, keep on talking they'll love and you might have a good experience.

[Bubbles16]

I like it when people say they like my makeup or nail polish

[peedy]

Oh god that was incredible

Im as loose as a noodle

[skeetskeetskeet]

I don't need compliments. My ego takes care of that

[Anonymous]

I think just saying you appreciate who they are and what they do. Those are things men rarely hear these days.

[Loser94]

I can honestly say I've never had a complement thrown my way at all. I'm just a loser
