If you get a compliment like that from your boyfriend its ok to say thank you. If you dont want to say that though just say.."Aw you are so sweet.." and give him a kiss on the cheek or something. Or you can give him the same compliment back..haha.

Whenever someone compliments me I blush. I absolutely hate it. I used to not know what to say on top of that, so it made it a lot worse. Compliments are (obviously) meant to make someone feel good about themselves. So really, blushing, smiling, or being embarassed aren't bad ways to react especially if the compliment comes unexpectedly. Saying thank you is actually a pretty good way to respond. The best way to respond is to either compliment back or add something after your "thank you" or whatever happens to blurt out of your mouth right away. Something like "you too", "thanks, you're so sweet", "not as...fill in the blank...as you", or even a simple "wow, that was really nice, I don't know what to say" will work just fine. Try to think of it from the other end. What would you want someone to say if you said the same thing to them? Sometimes it doesn't matter what you say at all. This sounds like a really great guy too ;-) Good luck!

So, I didn't get that much of an explaination of what went wrong when you said, 'thank you'. What was wrong with just saying that? Was it that bad? I think when someone is nice, by giving or sharing something with us, we say, 'thank you', or 'thank you so much' and a hug maybe. Maybe you felt dumb for saying it because maybe your words came out dull? You just said it quietly and didn't sound very thankful for what he said, because, I truly can't think of anything else to say, except, "thank you so much, and I really think you're beautiful too" You could give a compliment back if you think that would be better. I think thats what the guy can only explain from you, a simple 'thank you'.

There are several cute things you can say like:

"Awww you're so cute. Thanks."
"No, we are beautiful together."
"You make me so happy!"

Just say cute things...he will love them don't worry.
