Diamond in the rough. It means that they see you as something very valuable that needs to work on polishing yourself up a bit.

It just means that right now you may not be at your best, but down inside you are a brilliant diamond, and maybe you just need time or work to make that diamond "come out."

I thought it meant that underneath what might be a less-than-optimal exterior is a shining example of a human being. Something like that! Like maybe you've got some things to work on, and once you do, watch out! You'll be like a diamond.

Means same as :
Needle in a haystack.
Port in storm.
A rare gem.
One in a million.
You stand out in a bright way amongst all the others.
It means that the person is special, unique, bright and a rare find.

It means you stand out as something beautiful amongst a lot of undesirable people. Loosely interpreted. if someone says that about you, they have a certain admiration for you. It's meant to be a compliment.

Underneath it all you are very beautiful. You are a diamond that someone has found but it hasn't been cleaned up yet and some people do not realize your beauty yet.

It means you are genuine, unique, rare, and beautiful. You just need to find the right person to bring out the great person under all the roughness.

It means you need some polishing (so to say).
They are more than likely saying that you are a good person, who means well, but you tend to be a bull in a china shop as far as your mouth goes.
It's not an insult, but more an observation.

A diamond in nature, in the rough, before it is cut and polished, is full of potential, but isn't yet shiney and sparkly..

It means you are a gem of a human being, something really special, but it's not obvious to everyone. It's a compliment.
