There’s this guy who frequently remarks on my figure (specifically how small/thin I am) and uses words like “cute” and “tiny”, and I don’t know whether it implies some sort of attraction or if I’m reading too much into it. He’s never specifically called me pretty/hot, but often comments on my clothes in a positive manner or will notice small changes in my appearance (my hair being straightened or my toes being painted). He’s occasionally told me I look “great” or like a “million bucks” when I’ve gotten dressed up and I guess that’s the closest thing to a direct compliment. I don’t know what type of woman he’s physically attracted to, so I don’t know if being called “tiny” is a good thing or not.

To give context, I’m a client at a place he works so there’s a lot of rules regarding boundaries and he’s said himself that he feels he has to be “careful complimenting women”. Not sure if relevant, but he’s also 15 years older than me so I guess it’s possible he sees me in a paternal light (though he has mentioned he likes younger women).
