    You can make a man feel appreciated by complimenting him for things he says or does. For example, you might say, 'When you planned that date for me, it made me feel so special. Thank you for being so thoughtful!'

  • Question
    What about telling a guy that he looks hot?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    It depends on the relationship you have with him. If he already has a partner, avoid saying anything that might mean you're sexually or romantically interested in him. But there's nothing wrong with saying this to a single guy or a guy you're already involved with.

    What if I don't want to seem like I'm flirting because I just genuinely think he's got nice hair or something?

    Make sure you have a friendly enough relationship that the guy knows your intention. Lots of guys can take things the wrong way as complimenting them can often make you more attractive to guys.

    How can I tell my boyfriend he feels nice when we cuddle without him thinking I am calling him fat?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Telling your boyfriend he feels nice is a compliment. If he thinks you are calling him fat, explain that you just like the way he feels when you cuddle.

    I told my boyfriend how much he means to me but he only said thanks, what should I say to him?

    Give him some time to think about it. He could feel differently or he could be nervous about expressing his own feelings.

    How do I compliment a guy that doesn't know I have a crush on him?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    If you don't want him to know that you like him, compliment him in a way that's not romantic. You could compliment him on his grades or his talent for sports, drawing, playing music, etc., whatever he's into.
