当被别人夸cute，习惯谦虚的我们是不是觉得一句thank you都不太能说出口?作家Hiuyan Lam给了我们15个好点子(15 of the Best Responses When Someone Calls You Cute)，让我们可以根据对方角色的不同，从容的回应类似这样的称赞!

　　So, you’re pretty good-looking, which means it shouldn’t come as a shock when someone calls you cute. The problem is, however, how to respond when someone calls you cute.

　　你很好看，所以当别人夸你可爱的时候，你不会感到特别惊讶。不过问题是，我们应该如何回应这样的称赞呢?

　　How to respond, of course, depends on who says it; we mean to say that it depends on if he/she is a crush. You’d respond differently to someone who doesn’t interest you than to someone who does.

　　回答的方式要看对方是什么人，也就是说对方是不是你心仪的对象。对感兴趣的人和不感兴趣的人，我们回应的方式是不一样的。

　　In this post, we’ll explore 15 ways to respond to being called cute; we offer three scenarios and share what they mean. Let’s get started:

　　这里我们探索了3种情景下的15种回应方式，开始喽：

　　Five ways on how to respond when someone calls you cute: When it’s a crush.

　　如果对方是你心仪的人，可以有以下5种回应方式：

　　When a crush calls you cute, it can be a pretty heart-warming experience; this is because you like him/her back. You might be flabbergasted when you hear the comment, so you should be prepared in case it ever does happen.

　　被心仪的人夸赞可爱，是个暖心的体验。当你听到这样的夸赞时可能会惊讶的不知所措，所以提前准备好回应方法是很必要的。

　　1. “You must be looking at a mirror.”

　　This is a flirty response for when you want your crush to know that you feel the same way as he/she does. A mirror shows a reflection, and you are simply saying that he/she must be talking about him/herself too; you are basically saying that you find him/her cute too.

　　这是个很暧昧的回应，当你想让对方知道你也感觉Ta也cute的时候就可以用。

　　2. “Coming from you, that means a lot.”

　　When you use this response, your crush will most likely ask you what you mean by that. This is the perfect opportunity for you to express your true feelings; you can use this moment to see what could blossom from it. It means it’s a compliment that you really appreciate because it is coming from him/her.

　　当你这样回答的时候，对方非常有可能问你是什么意思。这是表白的最佳机会，你可以利用这一刻看看你们是否会有进一步发展。它是在告诉对方，这种夸赞让自己很开心，因为它不是来自别人，而是来自心仪的Ta.

　　3. “I guess hanging out with you rubbed off on me.”

　　You are returning the compliment. It means the reason that you are so cute is that some of his/her cuteness has rubbed off on you, figuratively speaking, of course. This will likely make your crush smile. You can follow it up with something like, “I need to keep you around so that it doesn’t wear off.” You can also say, “I guess that I should stick around you a bit longer.”

　　这是又夸回去了，它表示之所以自己可爱，是因为对方把可爱传染给自己了。对方听了这句回应可能会笑笑，此时你可以接着说“我得把你留在身边以防这些可爱消失了。”或者“我想我应该跟你呆的更久一些。”

　　4. “Sorry, you must have mistaken me for someone else. I get that a lot.”

　　This is a good way to accept a compliment while appearing humble. It means your crush, perhaps, thinks that you are somebody else whom he/she finds good-looking. When you say something like this, your crush is likely going to follow up by expressing how he/she sees you; you may also hear how he/she feels about you.

　　这是个很棒的谦虚接受夸赞的方式。你的意思是Ta认错人，把你当成了另一位Ta认为可爱好看的人。你如此回应后，Ta很可能会说出Ta对你的看法。

　　5. “I guess that makes two of us! That’s something else we have in common.”

　　You are calling your crush cute while accepting the compliment. It is also a way to show your crush that you might work well together because you are both cute. Your crush may even inquire about the “something else” in your response, and you can follow it up with other things that you have in common; this might make your crush more interested in you, perhaps even sparking a deeper conversation.

　　如此回应，你即接受了对方的称赞，又顺便称赞了对方。这也告诉了Ta你们可能会很愉快的共事因为你们都好可爱。Ta甚至可能会问你你们还有什么共同点，你的回答会让Ta对你更感兴趣，甚至开始聊些更深层次的话题。

　　Five ways on how to respond when someone calls you cute: When you’re not interested

　　如果你对对方不感兴趣，你可以用下面的5种方式回应：

　　1. “Thank you, I appreciate that.”

　　This is a pretty common response that shows you are humbly accepting the compliment, and you don’t want to prolong the conversation any further than that. When you say this, the chances are that he/she will take the hint and change the topic or leave.

　　谦虚的接受，并且暗示你不想再继续聊这个话题了。对方很可能会接收到你的意图，换个话题或者直接离开了。

　　2. “I know, thanks.”

　　This response is kind of cocky, but it works when you want to move on from what was just said; it can show how confident you are, meaning you don’t need him/her to comment on your appearance.

　　这个回应听起来有点儿自大，但是想让对方换话题的话，这招真管用。它显得你很自信，表明了你不需要对方对自己外表的肯定。

　　3. “Well, at least, someone other than my parents think so.”

　　This is good to use when the compliment catches you off guard. It is humorous and can make the situation feel less awkward. The fact that you joked it off may give him/her the indication that you don’t see him/her in the same way.

　　当称赞突如其来你毫无准备的时候就用这句回应吧。幽默的态度可以让情况显得没那么尴尬。而且你用玩笑的方式化解也会让对方明白你对Ta没有兴趣。

　　4. “Thanks, I took a shower today!”

　　This is another funny response that you can use to say that you did a little something different this morning. It doesn’t mean that you don’t actually take showers. The person will likely pick up on the joke, making this awkward situation something that can be laughed off.

　　对方应该会get到这是个玩笑，然后一笑而过。

　　5. “[Smile and nod].”

　　This is a good response when you don’t want to say anything that might make him/her feel bad or awkward. It is vague and will not lead him/her on. You are also being very nice about it. You can likely walk away afterwards, without saying anything to avoid the person from replying altogether.

　　当你不想说一些让对方感到不舒服的话时，就干脆什么都别说，这样也不会让对方误认为你对Ta感兴趣。

　　Five ways on how to respond when someone calls you cute: When he/she’s just a friend.

　　如果对方是好朋友，可以这样回应：

　　1. “Okay. So, what do you want?”

　　This is a good response for a joking moment, when you want to be light-hearted with your friend. It’s as if you’re saying that he/she is only being nice to you because he/she wants something from you, which of course is probably not true.

　　如果你想跟朋友搞笑一下，可以如此回答。语气好像在说Ta只有在有求于你的时候才会想起来夸你。

　　2. “Damn, wish I could say the same about you! Burn!”

　　This response is a joke, and it means that you can’t return the compliment because your friend isn’t cute. Your friend will likely find it funny, which means you can both laugh about it together. If he/she doesn’t get the joke, you should explain it so that it doesn’t hurt his/her feelings.

　　这完全是玩笑话，告诉对方自己不能说Ta也很cute因为Ta根本不cute. 但如果对方不能get到笑点，你得解释一下，不然可能会伤到对方。

　　3. “I’d tell you how to do it, but you’d have to pay me.”

　　This is another funny response that you can use when your friend calls you cute. It means that he/she isn’t cute, but you can help him/her out for the right price!

　　这同样是个玩笑，是在告诉对方Ta虽然不cute, 但是如果钱给到位，你可以帮Ta变cute.

　　4. “Whoa, there, there, tiger, are you hitting on me? I’m already taken, sorry.”

　　If you and your friend joke around like this, then this response can be received as super funny. It just means that your friend is being nicer than usual, and there must be a reason.

　　如果你跟朋友可以如此开玩笑，那这个回答会超搞笑。“Ta比平时nice, 难不成是在调戏我!不好意思我名花有主了”

　　5. “Okay, but have you seen yourself?”

　　This response is good in a moment when you want to return the compliment to your friend. It means that he/she is just as cute as you are, and the focus should probably be on him/her instead of on you. It will make your friend feel good about him/herself.

　　当你想夸回去的时候，可以这么说，表示对方也一样可爱，“你这么可爱难道自己看不到么!”

　　Now that you are fully equipped with these responses, you can never get caught off-guard again. You can choose to clear the air, make a joke, or brush it off. Good luck!

　　现在你已经全副武装了，所以再也不会被对方的夸赞搞得毫无准备不知所措了。你可以选择把话说明白，开玩笑或者避而不谈转移话题。祝你好运!
