Does a Man Like Compliments?
Your guy may seem cool and confident and never fish for praise, but underneath, heneeds to knowyou appreciate him and like who he is.
He may not ask, “Do these jeans make my butt look big,” but he’ll certainly be thrilled to hear you say, “You look so hot in those jeans.”
Beyond praise of his looks and physique (which are nice but superficial), your recognition of his good character, charm, intelligence, hard work, career success, values, and integrity go a long way in cementing a bond between you.
Try saying things like . . .
- “I really admire the way you spoke to the waiter when he brought out the wrong order.”
- “You are the most hard-working man I know, and you still make time to visit your family.”
- “You always make people feel so comfortable when you speak to them.”
When you compliment your guy on the qualities that mean the most to him, he’ll feel that you really “get” him and understand him on a level that others don’t. And hopefully, you really do.
