1. "You look great!"

你真帅

Men have insecurities, just like women. And whether he shows it or not, sometimes he's wondering if his shirt looks better tucked in or out, or if his belly is sticking out a little too far over his belt. This is an especially good compliment if he's been going to the gym-why do you think he's doing all that working out?

男人和女人一样，也缺乏安全感。不论他有没有表现出来，有的时候他也会想他的衬衫是扎进去好看还是不扎进去的好。

2. "I love your [insert body part]"

我喜欢你的（鼻子，眼睛……）

Sometimes it helps to get specific-see the above tip. And, we're not gonna lie, one of the best fill-in-the-blanks here is, "I love your you-know-what" （or whatever word you can say without laughing or blushing too much.） Men are sensitive about their manly¹ bits and they want to know that you're attracted to what they have.

有的时候夸的具体点更好，当然这并不是让你去欺骗对方，譬如"你真厉害，……都懂".

3. "I love it when you [insert action]."

我喜欢你……

This is one that can benefit you as much as him. Men are the traditional initiators, and even if your man isn't the one to make the first move, chances are he sometimes feels like he should. If you don't tell him what you like, he's just flying blind. In fact, if you haven't complimented him he might even think you don't like what he's doing. And of course, the more you tell him you love it when he scratches your lower back, or runs your fingers along your chest, the more he'll do it.

这样说，可以让他开心，也可以让自己开心。如果你告诉他你喜欢他什么，他就不会知道。

4. "That woman just checked you out."

有个美女在看你。

Yes, this helps his self-confidence. But it also tells him that you just saw another woman looking at him and you're not afraid to tell him. It shows that you're confident enough to know that he won't be lured² away by another gal³. Plus, what guy can resist the thought women are giving him the once-over?

这样说可以提升他的自信心。同时，你看到一个女人看着他，你却不担心，还告诉了他，这也说明你充分相信他。

5. "You're right."

你说得对！

We all like to be right, men included. And you know what? Sometimes they are. It probably happens less often than he thinks, but when he is right, it's nice to tell him, especially if you were arguing. Sure, it might make you feel a little sheepish, but it's worth it in the end. It'll make him feel good, and showing that you're a reasonable creature who can admit when you're wrong will help temper future disagreements.

每个人都希望自己是正确的，男人也是如此。

6. "Will you help me unscrew this?"

你能帮我……

Men like to feel manly. It might not be PC, but it's ingrained in our culture. Helping⁴ women with simple tasks makes them feel macho and noble. We're not saying you should ask him to do things you can easily do yourself, but if you do need assistance, it's a little ego-booster he'll be happy to accept.

男人喜欢展现自己男人的一面。

7. "You're not going bald."

你头发总是那么多。

About one-quarter of men start losing their hair at age 25 and two-thirds have begun balding by 60. Losing his locks is one of a man's greatest fears. So even if he is getting a bit naked up top, tell him he's not. It's the male equivalent of "Do these jeans make me look fat?" No honey, of course not.

正常男人从25岁开始渐渐地有秃头的现象，有2/3的男人在60岁的时候秃头了。
