I think he said the marriage statement to emphasize that the two of you are heading close to a boundary that is dangerous to cross.
Telling you are beautiful is a self-esteem boost, does he say it hoping you will recognize your inner and outer beauty on your own?
My therapist found ways to tell me that I'm intelligent for months on end, until I finally acknowledged it.
I would definitely discuss why he let's you manipulate him. What the psychological benefit is for you.
