When my love and I go out, we often compliment and oggle other people. He'd rather look at pictures of other women, and quite often, I'd rather look at other people too! We're both quite aware of this, but we're still happy. He's a down to earth sort of guy, and so he doesn't tell me things like "you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen." They're just not true. Both of us know damn well that though he thinks I'm beautiful, others may be better. He's beautiful, but others may be better too!
But, there is way more to you and I than our appearances. We are a package deal, and even though our wrappings may not be as shiny as the next, we've got the whole damn thing going on! And that's why smart boys choose ladies like us. He chose you, and he wants to keep you for life! Don't worry about the pretty girls, that's all they'll be to him.
Though, if he doesn't complement you and you want to hear it, talk to him about it. Tell him that it makes you question yourself, or whatever it makes you feel, and ask him to be a bit more vocal with his love. Perhaps if you were to up the ante on what you say to him it could help encourage him. Also, I'd suggest complementing other guys when you're with him, and see how it feels for the both of you.
And Twinkle, from experience, if you ever need an ego boost, just post a pic here and you'll get all the boost one girl could stand! (I know you're still a rookie, but keep posting! You'll get more access soon enough!)
