He texts me just to say I'm beautiful?

This guy is a few years older than me, I'm nineteen and he's twenty one, we hardly text or see each other but when we do text he just goes on and on about how beautiful I am, calls me gorgeous, baby, says he loves me so much, apologizes for not talking to me recently, etc. I like the attention and I'm not getting to into it, although I like him a lot, I just wanna know why he keeps doing this. Any ideas?
