Q: 14/F

So I'm confused. I've heard that when a boy says you're "cute" it means that he doesn't really think you're that good looking but he would still hook up with you. Well I've been called cute a lot, but I'm not sure if its the same or not. After I say something funny/ditzy or if I have a blonde moment he will say "Ha, youre cute". Or when i come into school a boy will say "Well don't you look cute today?" and I'm just confused cuz I've heard them say to girls that they look hot so I don't know. Oh yeah I get a lot of "youre so adorable"s too. Maybe this is because I'm quite a bit younger than most of my grade? I don't know, what exactly does "cute" mean???

Believe me, "cute" has more of a staying power than "hot". Cuteness is something that lasts and has to do with personality as well. Definitely a good compliment to get. Either way, "cute" and "hot" are both under the category of good-looking so you still win.
