I was reading a manga and the character said:

> でも 私 あなたのそういうところ すきよ

I translated it as "You like someone such as me." I may be completely wrong
because ところ throws me off. I know some particles are being omitted, but I just
don't know which ones.

question
meaning particles
What is the meaning of でも 私 あなたのそういうところ すきよ?
> でも 私 あなたのそういうところ すきよ

You can interpret it as:

> でも 私 **は** あなたのそういうところ **が(orは)** すきよ

Literally, "But I like that part of you."

「あなたのそういうところ **が** 好き」 means "I like that part of you" "That's what I like
about you" (implying "That's the main factor I like about you"), while
「あなたのそういうところ **は** 好き」 sounds more like "That part of you, I like it" "That
part of you is favorable to me" (this may imply "That's not the main factor"
or "That part I like, but some other part I don't like"). The example in
question sounds closer to the latter.

* * *

The ところ is "part (of you)". It can refer to one's personality, character, or
the way one behaves. Examples:

> 「あなたの優しいところ」  
>  _lit._ "kind part of you" → "your kind personality"  
>  「彼女のどんなところが好きですか。」  
>  _lit._ "Which part of her do you like?" → "What do you like about her?"
