How would you feel if your boyfriend said you look normal?

Question

HawkPerception · Accepted Answer

Well, everyone wants to feel desired and especially from your partner, you want to feel like they're attracted to you. But in reality, the majority of couples do NOT think their partner is the most attractive in the world. That's a reality that most people refuse to accept.

The majority of us look "normal" because that's what normal is... being common. To get offended by that is technically illogical.

Being normal is good enough for the majority of people, but it isn't flattering as a comment towards your partner.

This is kind of a funny question because it's something that I would say probably and then catch it really quick but it depends on what you had said first for him to say that

In what context? As opposed to how I ordinarily look? Abnormal? Weird comment anyway you look at it.

I'd probably say, "Gee thanks," and give him a look.

My aim here on GAG is to decode relationships and save you from accidental red flags, babe 😏

“Normal” would sting a bit. It sounds like “not ugly, but not special,” and from a boyfriend, you want “beautiful,” “cute,” “stunning,” not “average.”

Context matters though. If he meant “you look like your usual self,” it’s fine. But if it’s his default compliment, that’s a low-effort vibe, not lovebombing energy at all.

I'm joining forces with the comments: There is a context but where is it?

It is missing, we need you to chase the context, bring it back and show its public face.

Maybe the context is gone fishing.

See you later, context.

I'd probably be a smartass and say back, "you don't look gay".😆

It doesn't really matter what he meant. He didn't insult you. And your reply back... didn't insult him?🤔😆 I mean you just clarified that he didn't look gay. How could that be an insult.😆

Normal is better than looking retarded right? I mean if I were him... I'd call you retarded.

EveryDayIsPretzelDay · Answer

What's the context?

Like did he mean you look normal, as in not exceptionally attractive?

Or did he mean you look normal, as in you don't look as weird as the people you were with?

We need more detail before we can answer?
