We all love compliments. But of course, some compliments we like more than others. So what's your favorite one to receive from the opposite sex?

Other.

I prefer "smart" and/or "funny." And that's what I've usually gotten in the way of compliments.

I've heard "handsome," but never "hot." Shucks. In today's society, it seems "hot" trumps "handsome."

"You've got big *&*"

No, seriously, any compliment would be appreciated!

I think there's certain cheapness to "hot" when describing a woman. I prefer "stunning" or at least "beautiful." "Pretty" and below doesn't cut it if somebody wants to get into my pants!

"You are incredible in every possible way, and I can't believe it took me this long to find you."

Chose other; so I'll explain
"you have nice arms" it's the only one I've gotten from more than 1 person with sincerity.

Very true about the first part - another "double standard" at work.

About the last part - thanks for the candor. LOL.

I'd love to hear "dayum!"

But I have to settle for "cute" because that's usually the compliment I receive.
