Over flattering?
My boyfriend kinda over-does it when it comes to complimenting me. I really appreciate him being sweet and all, but he takes it too far sometimes. When we were at dinner the other night, I asked him to pass the salad and he responded saying "I'd love to pass the salad to my most awesomest girlfriend in the world that I love more then she loves salad"
.. Yeah weird, but the problem is, he does that in EVERY conversation so its not just once-in-a-while. It becomes more annoying then flattering. How do I get him to take it down a notch but still making sure that he knows I appreciate his efforts? He hasn't caught on to my hints to getting him to stop.

I think the best way of letting him know is gently tell him that compliments are appreciated more when they are used sparingly.

Marry him...the compliments will immediately stop. LOL, but I am guessing that is not a great option for you. So, I would just start doing what he is doing, maybe he would then get the clue that it is annoying. I hope this helps.

Aweee, haha that`s really cute & funny too. Why he say`s that is because he loves you alot, as you probably know already =) ♥ Well how you can make him stop, is just say " Oh my god, I love how you give me compliments & how you are so sweet, but sometimes you do it a little bit too much... and it gets annoying but dont get me wrong I love you with all my heart, it`s just all the complimenting is driving me crazy!" Or something like that! I hope I helped, & Good Luck! ♥ =)

It sounds like something that was really cute and funny the first time, but he's overused it. Tell him you appreciate it but that sometime you just wish he'd shut up and pass the damn salad.
Of course, find a slightly more subtle way to do it. Let him know he doesn't have to try and be overly creative. Sometimes the really simple ways of letting someone know you care are the best.
