Guys when you love a girl is she really more beautiful than other girls in your eyes?

I mean women are self conscious creatures thanks to the media, porn, and every form of communication telling us we need to be thinner, prettier, more toned, have bigger breasts and asses, etc. My boyfriend told me I was perfect and that I'm beautiful. It's so flattering and it makes me feel better, but it always feels like a lie. Like he's saying it just to make me feel better or something? He doesn't sound insincere but I know there are thousands or more of prettier, skinner, curvier, sexier women than me. He doesn't go out and drink with the boys, he doesn't leave the house, he plays pool with the boys in the living room while I do my own thing. He goes to work and comes home. He doesn't watch porn, like ever. It's just so weird... like every guy I've ever met says all men watch porn, but he turns his head or ignores naked women. I just showed him a picture of a girl in workout attire and he turned his head and asked me why I showed him that. Like it made him upset I would show him a woman that wasn't me..

I haven't experienced this before. Is it really how he feels or just to make me feel special? Even when he thought I was asleep he turned down looking at a photo of a naked girl his brother tried to show him... He always compliments me during love making, even when I try to cover up and he never gets mad or irritated. We've been together three years and I just can't figure him out. I want it to be real, but I'm so afraid it's an act. Maybe I'm just paranoid because it seems too good to be true? Really would like to know a guys point of view. He's gotten a lot nicer to me since he got his new job. He asks me if I want anything, he's been talking about kids, and the other day he was super open and vulnerable during love, apologizing for as he put it "being a dick" because we were having a rough patch on and off before he got his new job... I'm so in love with him, and lately he's just made me love him even more... I have to know if it's real.
