Why do people get mad when you pay them a compliment?

I called someone a cutie and they got mad and asked why? What the hell?

Update:

I reall wasn't trying to be mean or sarcastic. I thought their pic was cute and I said so but he/she got offended! It was a pic of a baby for crying out loud, what' cuter than that?

    forget it, they're jus being stupid. Pay me a compliment i don't mind!

  • It's odd, it depends on who you are saying it to. If you called a 4 year old a cutie it would be fine, but to call some random person cutie...odd

    they are probably insecure about themselves and felt that you said that sarcastically!
