You probably know a guy is flirting with you if he compliments your appearance. But a guy can call a girl anything- cute, sexy, or beautiful, to name a few. So, if he calls you sexy, it must mean he really finds you drop-dead gorgeous, right? You aren’t just hot. You’re downright irresistible to him. Or, does it mean he’s objectifying you? Is he just treating you the same way he treats most beautiful women?...
