Have you ever shown a picture of yourself to a guy and he said, “nice” or something along those lines?
Well, what does it mean when a guy says nice to your photo? Usually, when a guy says nice to a girl’s photo it’s because he finds her attractive. However, there are instances where the guy is just being nice to try and be kind to someone he cares about or because he’s feeling polite.
The next time a guy says nice to your picture, think about the scenario before jumping to conclusions.
Let’s go over some other possibilities as to why guys say nice to your pictures.
What Does It Mean When a Guy Says Nice to Your Picture?
Because of all the different possible reasons why a guy could say nice to your picture, you have to be careful about how you go about interpreting the remark.
Sure, he may find you attractive, but he also could be just trying to be kind or polite.
It’s usually better to assume that he finds you attractive unless there are other clear signs otherwise.
1. He’s Being Very Polite
The first reason why a guy might say nice to your picture is that he’s just trying to be very polite.
Although this doesn’t necessarily mean that he isn’t attracted to you, it’s probably not the best reason for someone to compliment another person.
If he’s just trying to be polite then there probably isn’t any reason to be more excited about the nice comment than you would for an average compliment.
2. He’s Being Kind of Funny
Another reason why some guys say nice to your photos is that they’re trying to be kind of funny.
For example, if he said nice to a picture of you and your best friend, he might just be trying to playfully tease you.
He might not be telling the truth about how he feels about the picture.
3. He’s Being Nice for a Specific Reason
Sometimes guys will say nice to your photo because they’re trying to be nice for a specific reason.
For example, if you just went out on a date with this guy and he said nice to your picture, he might want you to know that he’s still thinking about you even though you just spent time together.
4. He Thinks You’re Attractive
Probably the most common reason why a guy says nice to your photo is that he actually thinks you’re attractive.
If this happens, it can be a great thing – it’s a sign that he finds you physically desirable.
In that case, he might be interested in you and he’s showing his interest through a compliment.
5. He Wants To Get In A Relationship With You
Another reason why a guy might say nice to your picture is that he wants to get in a relationship with you.
Although not every guy wants a relationship, it’s definitely common.
Here are some signs that he wants to get in a relationship with you:
- He mentions getting in a relationship.
- He says he likes you.
- He wants to see more of you.
- He says nice to your picture a lot.
As long as he’s also being complimentary and showing some affection, it can be a sign that he’s thinking about you in a more serious way.
What does it mean when a guy compliments your profile picture?
If a guy compliments your profile picture, it’s likely that he thinks you’re attractive. However, there are other possible reasons for him to compliment your picture. For example, someone might just be being polite or playfully teasing you.
I’ll give you an example of why this can happen by telling you about my experience with a guy who I thought was really attractive.
One day I showed him a picture of me in my swimsuit and he said “nice.”
Since the guy was also complimentary and affectionate in general, I assumed he found me physically desirable and wanted to get in a relationship with me.
He started asking if we could go out on another date soon.
This seemed like the best explanation for why he would say nice to my picture.
However, I later found out that he just thought it was nice of me to post a picture in which you could see my face.
He told me that he just said nice to my picture because he wanted to be polite.
Whoa!
That was really embarrassing.
Final Thoughts
When a guy says nice to your picture, it’s usually better to assume that he finds you attractive.
Therefore, he might be interested in you and want to get in a relationship with you.
In general, it’s usually better to assume that guys are being genuine, even if there are other possible explanations for why he would say nice to your picture.
If you’re still really not sure, ask him about it.
