Boyfriend says I’m not “model” pretty?

I don’t even really remember how we got into this topic but my boyfriend was talking to me and then all a sudden he goes “ you’re an 8.5 out of 10” and that’s where I stopped him and was like “ you think I’m only an 8.5” I’m not saying I’m the prettiest girl in the world but every girl wants to think their boyfriend thinks their a 10 in their eyes. I honestly got really upset. I told him to go find his 10 and that’s when he goes “ are you Angelina Jolie” and starts naming off a bunch of models/ actresses. At this point I was in disgust, how could he compare me to people like that. And then to make matters even worse he goes “ you’re a very pretty girl but you’re not that, that’s why your Instagram hasn’t blown up yet.” A little back story, I’m 22 and I’ve wanted to model since 16. I post on Instagram every so often but I don’t look at it as some Job. Anyways, now I’m feeling insecure more then I ever have before and just don’t really know how to feel. Was this a messed up thing for him to say?
