Attractive?

When he tells you you are attractive or (very) but not pretty or beautiful...what does this mean?
Men: is it just an adjective?
Woman: do you find it insulting?

Tell him to start calling you pretty.

@ScarletWitch he should say what he thinks. I was just curious if it was insulting in anyway?

@Gemini16 I mean tell him, so he knows that's what you want to be called. Perhaps your husband doesnt even realize it.

It’s only insulting, if you feel insulted. @Gemini16

@Carissimi I was just asking opinions, I've always been told I was pretty by partners, maybe he'll say it. It really doesnt matter,I was just wondering what others thought about that word.

If someone told me I was attractive, I’d take it as a compliment. Same goes if they said, “pretty,” or “beautiful.” However, if someone said to me how you wrote it in your post, I’d be hurt because it’s like giving a compliment with a backhanded insult at the same time. Just my opinion. @Gemini16

@Carissimi no, I wrote that wrong! I understand the confusion now! I meant he doesnt call me pretty or beautiful. He says I'm attractive. Or I look beautiful, (one time) LOOK, NOT ARE!!!

Okay, now I get your meaning. Thanks for the clarification. Well, I can only think he finds you very attractive. Other than this, I don’t know what it means. Probably nothing. @Gemini16

@Carissimi I did ask him about it and he wonders if he doesn't compliment me enough! It must just be his adjective!
