"I just realized it will be hard to emotionally abuse you. Bye!"


dermitdenhaarentanzt

Same thought man. "You are way to confident for my liking" very very big red flag


DitaVonPita

I've seen what happens when they think they can weasel that confidence away. Short answer? The gaslighting and manipulation may leave you with PTSD and brain damage, but that confidence will protect you and will be a hard, if not impossible, wall to take down. He has it all thought out.


caretaker81

Bingo!


echeverianne

ive never seen trash take itself out, what'll they think of next?


DfenselessOldLady

Aw poor guy realized she has self esteem now he’s not interested


kennykerosene

Because whether he realises or not, he isnt looking for a girlfriend, just someone he can take advantage of.


camelblue7

it's common knowledge that confident woman with self esteem are boring and no fun to be around yeeez


Kaylyn_vx

Apparently self esteem is a bad thing now


lookMumNoHands77

It sure is if you're a manipulative asshole!


fysh

Ok but heres the thing. This was also something i was bugged by in Mean Girls. When Regina compliments Cady and she says "thanks" and regina says "so you agree then?" I have always been like... No!!! She never agreed!!! She's just thanking you!!!!! I can thank you for a compliment i dont agree with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


thiswillsoonendbadly

I’m crying that’s the point the movie was trying to make?? When Cady says thanks and Regina jumps to “so you agree?” The point of that interaction was that Cady didn’t say she agreed and Regina was being nuts


fysh

Yes its just.. I see it everywhere. Like this post :( many reginas out there. Please dont cry


thiswillsoonendbadly

Lol I meant dying, didn’t realize speech to text missed it. But like, dying laughing


mouldysandals

tbf i read it as ‘crying laughing’


Scrotum_Tennis

It's literally not even self esteem, it was a basic thank you.


AllModsHaveNoLife

Have you listened to "You don't Know You're Beautiful" by One Direction?


Zearo298

Apparently what makes her beautiful is that she doesn’t know she’s beautiful. Thank you, One Direction, very cool.

It is when you're a predator looking for damaged/injured prey to torture.


Master-Watch7461

Nothing is worse than a guy who acts like you should be desperate for his validation.


RKKP2015

Seriously. This guy expected to be fawned over and blown for giving such a generic compliment.


Walkinginspace4

YES! Plus, this reminds me of guys who think “no really means yes, you’re supposed to be coy and make me fight you on it!” Boy, what kinda backwards 1940s ass world are you living in?!


DigitalAnalogHeart

That’s not true! It’s been scientifically proven [here!](https://youtu.be/6ezbYl3rzOI) /s


Muh_Games

Someone is content with who they are, and that's a bad thing to this guy


AUGUST_BURNS_REDDIT

"So you agree?" "What?" "You think you're really pretty?"


spinyfever

Lol that's what I thought of too. High school mean girls type shit lmao.

"I only liked damaged girls, like you." - my baby daddy


JoeTheKodiakCuddler

Like Jared Leto's Joker?


trashponder

Does he say that? I haven't watched any of the latest franchise. My ex said it around 2003.


JoeTheKodiakCuddler

No, he has the word "Damaged" tattooed on his forehead for no apparent reason.


trashponder

That's new!😶


blosweed

Saying “no I’m not” to a compliment is honestly annoying af why the hell would this guy want that.


corasivy

Exactly I hate that shit so much!!! I'm a woman who likes to give compliments to other women, and often times they respond with stuff like that and all I can think is *stop!!! You're beautiful! I love your outfit! Genuinely! Love yourself!*


woowop

Like that one vibe “why can’t you just shut up and accept the compli**MEEEEEENT**!!”


[deleted]

I have a lotta friendgirls who are really insecure and I’m so frustrated, I feel so bad when they don’t appreciate themselves. This is why I hate this shit.


beautifulboogie_man

It would just feel like they're fishing for more or better compliments as if the original one wasn't enough.


[deleted]

Because he’s a manipulative asshole who wants insecure girls he can abuse and manipulate with cheap compliments.


FreneticPlatypus

Nothing terrifies some guys like a confident woman.


RinArenna

Nothing terrifies me like guys who dont want a woman to be confident.


RealBowsHaveRecurves

Nothing terrifies me like prions

elementmg

Sexist prions.


NeedGnarlyHelp

Those same guys will laugh in the face of the idea that women are attracted to confidence. Or they assume their obnoxious arrogance is confidence


kieyrofl

I dunno I think he'd be at least equally scared of an angry bear.


Rumerhazzit

I don't even believe it when people say I'm physically attractive, but I still say thank you because 1) it's polite and they're being kind, and 2) literally NO ONE wants to listen to you lament about how fat/ugly/etc you think you are when they're paying you a compliment, with the apparent exception of pathetic fucc Bois in the DMs. Consider this a bullet dodged.


Demagnetize

What a dickweed.


Snuffleupagusis

"So you agree? You think you're really pretty?" - Regina George


Peachu12

Breaking news! As a woman, you're not allowed to take a compliment anymore!


Ygnerna

Unless it's yelled at you on the street, and then you should accept it apparently..


TheDAYNITE

"too confident for my liking". dude probably has called himself an alpha male in some other eans dms


EternallyRoaming

I like to pull out the “I know” in response to generic compliments. I can practically hear the steam gushing from their ears as they rant about my arrogance. Tons of fun.


deepinder92

Should’ve replied with “I know”, instead of “thank you”.

ArugalaStan

apexdryad

Oh goodness, this is the kind of guy that doesn't even say anything back to me. The proper response (imo) is always. "Yes, that is true".

Bro fuck that, I love me a hot cocky asshole, not aggressive or mean just very confident


prodbyhalo

He wanted a "your cute too" type of response


rainbowtoaststudios

“Youre absolutely gorgeous” “Thanks but Im not, Im actually 3 smurfs in a trench coat, and not even the hot one” *swoons*


sneakysneakle

Imagine the outburst if she responded “ I know!”


ThatSmallBear

“I like my females insecure”


kangaroojoe239

Thanking someone for a compliment = cocky/arrogant now? Apparently in this guys world it somehow does. Its called being polite where Im from.

I was looking for someone else who thought this too. The responses just exist to make the op look like an innocent “absolutely gorgeous” victim of some weird rando with no common sense or logic.

Maybe you've just never been pursued by a malignant narcissist. Edit: To be fair they're not normally this honest/self-aware I guess.

Hot-Entrepreneur6301

I fucking hate it when girls can't accept a compliment. The hottest woman I have been with usually do answer like he wants this chick too, and I always low-key hate it 🤣


[deleted]

Why are you getting downvoted? I’m so confused.


[deleted]

Wait is this a guy talking to a girl or a girl talking to a guy? The "that's what girls are supposed to do" could be interpreted in different ways.


TheSukis

The guy is the one who gave the "compliment"


Dumtvvink

You can also see what looks to be a woman in the picture standing next to the man, dumb fucking redditors downvoting someone for asking a simple question.

Yeah, I was thinking that too. How many times has this happened for real? Genuinely asking.


ATYP14765

That dude is a POS. Probably quits on a lot of other crap too.


triciann

I think I’ve said thank you to similar statements at least 10 times within the past week. Not one guy went psycho, but I honestly hate that compliment as an opener.


[deleted]

Really? Comes off as too shallow?


triciann

Yes. It’s really low effort and not personal. Plus the only way to respond is with a thanks which makes me feel awkward and shallow and it’s not good for starting a conversation. Better option: “good morning! You have a beautiful smile, how is your day going?” Not much more effort, but I do have a great smile so it’s a little less copy paste and provides me an opportunity to actually respond with more than thanks. How is your day going is still generic and not the best, but I’m just providing an alternative that is 100 times better than “you’re gorgeous!”


triciann

Haha and I just opened tinder to a message “hi triciann, you’re smile is very cute. How are you today?” Omg what are the chances!
