Search Results: compliment from a guy

Was with my ex boyfriend once, and he was driving us to go somewhere irrelevant to the story. I was wearing a pair of old flip flops of mine, and he leans over from his spot driving and very awkwardly compliments my shoes. I was kinda startled, because we were pretty early into our dating relationship, and he rarely complimented me, and if he did it seemed strained. I chalk that up to his awkwardness, but still.

It’s something that’s stuck with me, because I don’t understand why he’d compliment my flip flops? It’s not like they’re actually anything cute, they’re kinda old and very plain looking. I can only assume he was looking at my feet and wanted to compliment me but didn’t know a less weird way to do it?

I’ve always like him (20) but not romantically, as I have a boyfriend so I was never attracted to him sexually (or that’s what I wanna think). It’s rather admiration and affection in a friendly manner. Although, I could unexpectedly hugged him sometimes so I guess he was aware I was attracted to him. In January, we spontaneously started texting for hours during some nights, and we got to know more about each other having a lot of connection. However, we also talked about sex, made some compliments and shared intimate stuff, which make my crush get super real this time. We have been like this since then and my feelings got more serious, to the point I care about him and text him almost everyday. We spent nights texting each other without stopping for hours talking about relationships, feelings, random stuff, everything. He knows I love him and that I care about him cause I tell him. But at uni, he now acts a little dumb towards me when we’re around his friends and I don’t like that, he’s almost completely different but still nice tho. My boyfriend is aware that I’m friends with him but not too much about the intensity of my crush. I just wonder if this guy might feel the same back, as we always get to talk about sex and relationships when texting or irl. He even told me I could visit his parent’s place in their home town and that I’m gorgeous. But don’t get to feel 100% sure whether or not he might feel the same.
