I am social retard, I used to be very shy when someone used to compliment me. Recently I started agreeing with the compliments in half-comedic way.
for instance a girl (who is my friends (yeah friend)), she told me some chicks in the class like me, because you look smart and handsome.
I replied “yeah, I am handsome, I know” with a smile.
I mean...tbh I feel like an egoistic idiot saying that, did I cross the line? or I am just overthinking stuff?

Just say "thanks" or "cool" and move on.
You're fine. You'll come across as arrogant and that's ok but you gotta own it and know that it will invite shit tests to see how serious you are.

Confidence is knowing your abilities and how far you have gone, thinking "I'm proud of myself"
Ego/arrogance is looking at people and think "I am better than you"
With experience you will be able to distinguish them. Nothing wrong with what you said. Most would take it as a joke

You can only tell from the reactions of people around you.
It can go either way it's just the way it is.
