So I figure, maybe if I don't adore him, then I won't be phased by his not seeing me as beautiful, gorgeous, or stunning (which are words men use to describe women to whom they're actually attracted). So I presume this guy isn't physically attracted to me due to the wording in "very pretty".
I like to think I'm a reasonable person so I know this must seem very silly, but it's been my observation that a man does not call his girlfriend or wife "very pretty"; they use "beautiful" and "gorgeous" or "stunning," instead of "pretty". These are words men use to describe women they think are generally attractive, but are not specially attracted to them. AKA, the nice way to say "eh you're alright, but not my type."
Would I be correct in believing this man is just not that into me, and to just blow him off and stay just friends?
Um....from my dating experiences this could go either way. Some men just don't know all the rules to the dating game. Some are just dumb. lol Some say it to sound nice. Some say it yes as "Well you are alright, but don't make the wang go up" So to speak. Think of it this way, you would rather be called a Pretty woman than a dog "Woof" or "Damn someone got hit by the ugly stick".
And stay friends for now, who knows what will happen.

You clearly need a hobby - you have WAY too much time on your hands!
"Very pretty" is a very nice compliment

You do have a problem, either you think too much or not enough. So far I haven't figured out just which it is. Why worry about something so damn insignificant that it doesn't matter to anyone? Be lucky he didn't just say you're an okay old broad.
Are you actually complaining about being called pretty.
You must be a white person... only white people complain about BS like this.........
Yes, I'm a white guy.......

Hate being called "very pretty" by a man I adore
