5 Compliments Men Crave
Real men tell BettyConfidential.com the compliments they’re dying to hear
-Carrie Seim
We all learned fairly early on what compliments to give other women.
“That dress is gorgeous!”
“Have you lost weight?”
“Congrats on the job, you’re such an inspiration.”
“Have you lost weight?”
“Those shoes are fantastic!”
“Are you sure you haven’t you lost weight?”
But when it comes to stroking a man’s (not so fast, lusty ladies) ego - what will really make him melt? Hint: it’s not his hair…unless he was on the receiving end of a Rogaine miracle.
Here are the top five qualities men really love to be complimented on:
1. His Smile / His Laugh
This was by far the most common answer from all the men we surveyed. Guys want reassurance that they make you happy – and there’s no better way to do that than by flattering their goofy grins and contagious laughs.
“Hearing how much someone loves my laugh, or my smile, or how funny they find me – these make my self-esteem swell, which is not to be undervalued because of my daily need for embarrassingly large doses of affirmation,” one guy told BettyConfidential.com

Great feedback! I will try these out today on my husband.
Going to test these out.
nice. sometimes I forget men need to have their egos stroked more often than women
When I love a guy’s smile I always compliment it. Good to know that I’m doing something right!
Yeah, the smile one is so easy but guys seem to eat it up
Sports are an easy one, never met a guy that didn’t have some skills he loved to hear about.
It’s a good message that we all crave the same things… re-assurance and flattery makes everyone feel good. Good examples on what types of things guys like to hear from us
