While were at it lets work this one too.
I my blog link above under "Reflection" is says this:
The manifested world in front of us is a reflection of us. People, places, and events in our awareness are our reflections.
Reflection is a tool of transformation. Your BF is reflecting parts of you that are rolling around in your unconscious. Actually the whole world is reflecting you. Think of it as a big mirror.
You can't go after the BF and make him change to suit you because that would be like looking in the mirror with a frown and drawing a smile on the mirror with lipstick and saying "look I'm happy now".
Reflection with text is quite easy... take all the proper nouns and make them you:

he says I'd be gorgeous (but says I look beautiful just the way I am) if I cared a bit more about how I looked.

I'm telling me I'd be gorgeous (but I say I look beautiful just the way I am) if I cared a bit more about how I looked.
See? It's you talking about you. What are you saying to yourself here?
(1) I have reception for my looks, I'm quite beautiful right now
(2) If I focused on me a little more I'd find out how gorgeous I really am
and #2 might be a physical thing paired with a spiritual/emotional/mental thing. Or it might be an inner knowing of your beauty. It might be an expansion of self that will come after giving attention to the denial listed up a few posts.
