Do men feel exceptionally good when they get compliments that they are handsome/hot/attractive?

This guy doesn’t. I’ve never responded much to compliments. In fact, compliments can turn me off, though I’m trying to work on that. This is because I’m a man of action.

If you want to stroke my ego, you need to get a feel for how guys like me view themselves. I see myself as a sheathed weapon. What I want you to do is take me out of my sheath and stab something. That’s what a weapon wants. To be used.

Complimenting a sword on the exquisiteness of its handle or the shininess of its blade isn’t going to win you any points with it. Get it dirty instead, that’s how it’s done.
