I'm female. He is male. I am 100% sure he didn't mean it in the slang term used at a bar. As usual, though, I am overthinking this. If someone called you a dragon slayer and you think it was meant as a compliment, what does it mean?

| It means you conquered a big problem. You can't figure that out? |

| Apparently you are not, in fact, a dragon slayer |

Overthinking it as I mentioned. Maybe there is an alternate reason. I dunno. Huge critic of myself so would never think of myself as that term |

| I would take that as a compliment. He thinks you kick ass and take names. |

Think of it this way. On one hand you say you are a huge critic of yourself. On the other hand, you are denying your boss's judgment that you are good at your job. So maybe assuming you suck is the arrogant position. Maybe you need to learn some humility and accept your boss's assertion that you kick ass. |

| Does this have any other meaning than someone who tackles a formidable task? What's the slang meaning? If your boss is as square as me, he has no clue. |

| Maybe he has an Xbox and plays Skyrim. |

| I would have asked him with a confident smile, "Define Dragon Slayer." Also, we don't know context. . . |

A hero (or heroine). What's the alternate meaning, and why would it be more important than St George and the dragon? Why are people so illiterate and uncultured these days? Really. |
