Now that is just one of those expressions that I have never really understood:
WHAT?
"I dig those new shoes"
You would like to get a shovel out and "dig" them?
They look like dirt?
Those shoes make me want to dig a hole for them, so that I can bury them and never see them again?
***
And then you apply it to an actual person:
"You...you what? You want to dig me? What does that even mean...which orifice are you digging? What are you digging with? ...I don't think I like you anymore..."
"I dig you."
Thus I conclude.
Dig is an ugly and unhelpful word if you are attempting to inform someone that you feel positively about something or someone.

Diglet, however, was always one of my favourite Pokemon.
It was because I could actually draw it.

Diglet looked a lot like a penis. A poorly drawn penis.
As well as dig, we have the name Doug. Doug frustrates me, because it is the past-tense of this stupid word.
"Are you diggin' on me? 'Cause I'm diggin' on you. Yeah."
...i happen to like the term. mainly 'cause i should be a hippie. but, still. you're right, technically. it doesn't make sense. what's your point?
...Diglet?
DUGTRIO FTW.
If someone tells me they "dig" me, I automatically assume their English isn't great, and they're trying to say they want to dig my grave.
I throw fish at these people.
