Attractiveness

So I’ve been struggling with a few things... I got a few new outfits and I was so excited and my boyfriend wanted pictures so I sent him what I got. He said “cute so far” then I tried my last one on and I said are you in love because I am it was one I looked forward too the most and he said... (needs to be ironed but it’s nice) like he doesn’t compliment me much unless I am real upset and feel really unattractive and just that time of the month but he doesn’t usually say much that makes me believe he thinks I’m pretty, I’m doing it for myself but honestly I’d like a few compliments I always do it to him. I don’t want them all the time but just a reminder he’s still attracted to me. I feel like I’ve is but reassuring is always great. I hope I don’t sound like an attention whore because I’m not but I get comments from all these guys and I tell them to stop thanks for it but I have a boyfriend I like to get them from. I want compliments from him. He’s quiet so he doesn’t share feelings much but I wish there was a way to talk to him about it. Am I alone? He’s an amazing guy it’s just the idea of me so excited about something and my girlfriends say you’re so beautiful and he just says it’s nice. Sometimes he sends emojis when I send him pics but it’s just “😍” I’d rather hear I’m beautiful or stunning or gorgeous. Hope it’s not just me.
