The burden of being cute

Post Reply New Topic

Everyone sees me as cute... not attractive, sexy, handsome, etc. just cute. When it comes to physical attraction... cute isn't it.

I disagree because some guys have said, "She is so cute" not to me. To other people and they tell me. Mostly men have said "Your beautiful" "gorgeous" or "sexy.' I do not mean to sound vein. I go shy when people give compliments. However, I do not think guys are making it up because women have given me compliments of being "beautiful" "gorgeous" and "your so cute." However, no women has said, 'I am so sexy" - That's good

Some men are attracted to cute 'baby face' girls. Were as others prefer more sophisticated type looks. So if people tell you, you are "cute" - they may very well find your cuteness attractive.

I thought the OP was a girl.

^ that icon is cute.

I've noticed that women are more likely to compliment guys' looks when they have no intention of dating the guy. If the woman likes him and wants to date him, she probably won't admit it (since that's "the guy's job." ) I've been called "cute" and I've been called "handsome," but in each case, it was from someone who had no intention of dating me anyway. So it could just be that whoever tells you you're "cute" doesn't have any romantic interest in you, while other women may find you attractive but they just don't say it out loud.

I have gotten called "Cute" a whole lot.
I am not conventionally attractive..or a "babe" or a "hottie" but I am "Cute"
When you are cute, it is about the whole package..not just your face or the shape of your body.
It is more about the attitude with which you present yourself to others.
I have been called cute because I dress funny and have a baby voice, and in other ways am very childlike...One time there were several people in an office where I worked all calling me cute at the same time and i shouted out (a little too loudly) "If I am not cute, I am nothing!" ...which was probably not a very cute thing to do.
I have been told that I resemble some little forest creature, like a rabbit or a squirrel

Of the two guys I am closest to, I call Flakey handsome..because beneath his messy hair and grimy shirt are unconventional good looks...tall (when not slouching)...brown hair..blue eyes...nice features...etc..
My other friend is pretty. He is too graceful and exotic looking to be "cute" and too feminine to be "handsome"...he's pretty...

I don't know what most women really mean by it. But personally, I don't like buff macho types, so when I say a guy's cute it's a genuine compliment.

As a female, I get called cute quite alot. I take it well. I'd rather be described as 'cute' than sexy, fit, hot or whatever (translation - slu*ty).

Menfolk, to whoever it applies, please remain cute and endearing. Some of us don't like the so-called hunks!

well shoot, im just too cute!

I can honestly say that I love being cute. I love my soft features, my lack of height, the fact that if I take care of myself i'll look 30 when i'm in my 40s. It's a blessing... it just makes it hard to find a suitable partner. Just in the same way I love my Aspergers for giving me a unique perspective on the world but at the same time curse it because of how it effects me socially... it's unique.
