Is saying 'you're such a cute couple' actually a real compliment?

Leaira • Wife | Mother | Teacher | BJJ | TTC for 2026

So this is just a thought I've had since I was like 15. I don't see why people say that 2 people in a relationship are a 'cute couple' or whatever. Like I know what it means but at the same time, if the two of you broke up they would say it to whoever you or they got with next. So is it just an empty compliment or just something your expected to say?

This is not supposed to be an argument or a diss or anything so please don't be that person that tries to make it one. 😑
