Search Results: tone of voice

Today my boyfriend and I (we've been together for 4 years and we live together) went to the dollar store to get some soda. The cashier smelled really good! His cologne was the best I've ever smelled and I was curious on what kind it was so the following was said:

Me: By the way, I like your cologne it smells good!
Him: Thanks! I had it in my car and sprayed some on but I thought it would've wore off by now Hahaha. It's Armani Black.
Me: Oh cool! I didn't mean that in a weird way by the way! Hahah
Him: don't worry I know Hahaha.

And that was it. We left and my boyfriend was very pissed off. He said I was flirting and it was inappropriate to say. I'm a little confused because I know when I flirt... my tone of voice and my body language did not show flirting. I know that for a fact. I really love the smell of perfumes and colognes. I've even complimented girls on the perfumes. I've been wearing perfume since I was little so yes, I love perfumes and colognes. I explained this to my boyfriend but he was still pissed off. I told him that I only liked the smell of the cologne, nothing else. He still said what I did was wrong. I apologized and he told me not to ever do that again. But I mean... Was I really in the wrong? I really wasn't flirting with the guy. I was being friendly and I genuinely liked the smell of his cologne and wanted to know the name of it. HELP.

Not in like an argument, but in, say, a heated conversation like banter or whatnot. And not yelling, just talking above a quieter tone.

For me it depended on the person calling me kid or kiddo.
I didn't mind being called kiddo by my mom as she used to call me kiddo sometimes.

But a few adults called me kid or kiddo and they meant it in a derogatory term, I could tell by their tone of voice and the mean expression on their face.

I'm Latina/Italian 5'2 I have dark brown hair brown eyes and petite. When I talk to cute boys they usually get nervous or blush, but they don't act that way around white girls. I'm not pretty just average. Did I make him uncomfortable or did he like me? I don't like him or have feelings for him, I just want to know. I feel like it is because I'm very shy and have a low voice tone.
