  1. I don't believe any woman has ever said that to him
  2. Me, getting the same awkward but still complementary comment: "Oh thank you! You look really nice too."

These men are psychotic.

I can believe someone has said that, but in the same manner you might act impressed at how fast a little kid can run in their new shoes. The comment is made to be nice, not to be sincere.

Maybe. I can definitely see that interpretation. But I just don't spend much time thinking of the passive aggressive interpretations of compliments. If it was insincere, then I hope my being nice back makes them feel worse about themselves. If they were being both nice and sincere, then nothing is lost.

Either way this man's reaction is over the top, and comes across as deranged.
