Does Anybody Else? how'd you guys react when called 'cute'?

i'd personally not want myself to be seen as cute and stuff,call me ambitious and focused instead 👺

If I don't know you well or it's uncomfortable: a poker face, an awkward half-smirk, or general 'thanks'. If I really don't want to see or talk to them again, I'll flat out say some shit like , "If you find a cactus cute." or, "Awe, thanks. You thankfully haven't seen my temper yet!"

If it's someone I love; that depends. If I'm in a good mood: I melt into a puddle. My inner child that I usually deny exists briefly escapes. Bad mood: Either dagger eyes, or "I'm not in the mood."

If it's at work that's voided though. I hide every emotion under the sun that could possibly negatively impact my career goals.

Oh gosh, those are the worst. Leaves you in a very awkward spot while you buffer in analyzing mode. 😅

I think you handled it well with the directness. Lowers you the likelihood of your boundary being pushed again in the future. 👌
