Search Results: being called cute

In a LOT of anime, the characters either react in a Tsundere manner when complimented and being called cute, or as a super shy character, often finding difficulty talking to the person who called them cute.
Another thing in anime is the HEAVY blushing.

So I am making this post to see how similar and realistic these traits are by asking people how they behave when faced with this scenario.

I also will agree that it depends on the person who gives that said compliment as it will affect you differently depending on who it is.

I myself become shy about it when a girl older than me says this but if it is a girl who is younger than me, I take the compliment and compliment them back.

If a guy calls me cute, I often have to determine if the word is meant in the complimenting or mocking way, either way I don't get awkward about it :)

I have been told by others that I blush easily at many things though, so it is probably hard for people to decide if I am embarrassed about something or just captivated about something super cute or overwhelmed by the compliment I was given :D
