I came to this site for advice about a man and love. That very question turned my entire world around and I have had my eyes opened to things I never noticed before.
I've stayed here so that I can share the knowledge I do have. I know I'm not changing the world but I do hope that I spark others to open their eyes.

So, if you learn something from what I say then repeat it to someone else who can use it.
I hope that if you see an answer of mine that you enjoy it will inspire you to go out of your way to give good, solid information. Provide links for further information, detail your responses, encourage people to seek out professionals when it's needed, and stop sugar-coating responses and just say the truth.
I hope that even if you absolutely hate my answer that it'll kick start your brain. Hopefully you'll begin taking your time to respond instead of hurried answers that are useless to an already confused person.

My crush told my friend that he thinks I am "pretty, pretty" as in like wow, you're pretty cool, except it's pretty pretty.
I'm debating if that's a compliment, I mean, it's cute but the way I take it as, I'm pretty, but not pretty enough.
Girls, would you take it as a compliment? (link)

Being told you are "pretty" is a compliment.
Fairly pretty = compliment
Pretty pretty = compliment
The crush may not have the right "words" to use in this. Maybe you don't fit the sexy or hot categories just right but you are a pretty girl. If you're looking for him to say you're outstandingly gorgeous then he might just not have that sort of phrase in his vocabulary to toss out. Saying you're "REALLY" pretty might feel a little embarrassing to him, especially if he thinks his friend might make fun of him. It's best to play it safe and use those smaller, less-impact words in case the person says, "What?! She's hideous!" It reduces the risk of embarrassment. He also doesn't want to run into a trap--your friend says, "Do you think Suzy is pretty?" and he says, "Yeah! Wow, is she!" and she says, "Well, she hates your guts, loser!" Teens can be cruel.
I'd say thank you and be pleased by it, personally.
