They just get caught up in what you say or do and later realize they were kind of hypnotized by you and not their usual self.

When someone says, "you have an addictive personality", they are saying, "You have a personality that is attractive and makes people want to come back and get more of it." In the same sense as "drugs" are addictive.

When someone says in casual conversation tht you re addictive, this is usually a compliment - i.e., they cant stay away from you ....
When someone says, however, that you have an "addictive personality", it means that you have certain experiences or viewpoints that make you prone to addiction to drugs, alcohol, and people (as in co-dependency.)

If you are addictive to the person talking to you....He or she cannot get enough of you. They are addicted to you, like an addict for a drug. If they are saying you have an addictive personality...they are saying you are easily addicted to things or substances or people.

Being addictive is a symptom of an Obsessive/Compulsive Personality; but unless the person who used the term is a licenced psychologist, I wouldn't take it too seriously.

If some one says they have an addictive personality I would take it to mean they become addicted easily to things - cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, whatever.

It could be you have an addictive personality and you become obsessed with things easily. like if you like a band you really get into that band. so on and so forth. perhaps not though.

that your personality is something that draw attention from people, usually (in most cases) it is complement...its hard to explain, i would take it as (depending on who and how it was said) your personality is very nice and it stands out, people like that about you and it is a quality that goes on their pro list about you, it definitly helps you make friends and is a good trait.....
overall-i would say it is a complement and it means that your personality is attractive....
