When someone calls you “cute,” that should tell you that he is trying to flirt. It doesn’t necessarily mean that a person is saying you cute in the wrong way, it entirely depends upon who is the person in question who is complimenting you.

Your response will set your line for the conversation, be it playful, sincere, or even flirtatious.

Your response should be totally how you want the conversation to continue, if you don’t want it to continue in a flirtatious form then you need to stop him then and there.

Here are several effective ways how to respond when someone tells you you’re cute, categorized into appreciation, humor, and returning the compliment.

Understanding the Compliment

Compliments can act as social pointers for improving bonds and raising self-esteem.

If a person calls you cute, then it is not casual. it means admiration that will eventually lead to a high-order conversation.

Such a compliment, if responded to positively, can build goodwill and relationship ties.

Acknowledge and Accept the Compliment

First, acknowledge the compliment. This may be as quick as eye contact and a smile, which usually lets him know that you are pleased with the comment.

The second is acceptance. This means taking the praise and not brushing it off. In many cases, a simple “Thank you” works just fine. You can say something like:

“Thanks! I appreciate it.”

“Thanks! That’s nice of you to say.”

Show Sincere Appreciation

Gratitude is in order not only for the compliment itself but also for the acknowledgment of the person. A meaningful answer can contribute to creating harmony in interpersonal relationships.

For example:

“Thanks so much! It made my day.”

“I appreciate your kind words.”

Keep Your Response Simple

Sometimes simplicity is very effective. Over-elaboration can begin to detract from the sincerity of your response.

A simple acknowledgment keeps the focus on the positive sentiment. Example:

“Thanks! I’m glad you think so.”

“Thank you, that means a lot.”

Apply Humor Or Wit

Humor can lighten up the interaction and make it playful. Your personality also comes across with witty responses. Consider these options:

“Wow, keep the compliments coming!”

“I think I’m in love with you for saying that!”

The Compliment Returned

If you are comfortable, returning the compliment may help to create a warm exchange. Not only would this acknowledge their compliment but also show your appreciation for it.

For instance.

Thanks! You’re pretty cute yourself!

“I appreciate that! You have a great smile.”

Use the Compliment as an Opportunity to Connect

Compliments could be an initiator to more meaningful talks. An associating question reaction may be used to turn a small-talk comment into a big-talk response.

For Example, In The Case Of:

“Thank you! Have you ever tried to give a compliment like that?”

“Thank you! What’s your favorite thing about yourself?”

Just be honest about how you’re feeling

If you’re shy or feel awkward about being complimented, that’s quite all right; it makes the interaction much more real if you acknowledge this. You could say:

“Thanks! I’m not great about taking compliments, but I appreciate it.”

“I’m flattered, but I’m not used to receiving compliments.”

Establish boundaries if necessary

You really will need to learn how to set boundaries without being rude at all if you want to keep things friendly and off-romantic. You can say:

“Thanks! I’m flattered, but I’m just looking for friends.”

“That is very kind of you! I’m glad to keep things amicable.”

Flirt Back at Your Discretion

Now, In case you do like this person and it does come naturally to you, then flirty replies can work wonders. We consider these playful responses to be:

“Thanks! I could say the same about you. We’d make a cute couple!”

“Aww, stop it! You’re making me smile like an idiot over here.”
