It takes practise. Personally, I don't like it when people stare too long. It gets creepy. Presuming he isn't doing the "creepy-stare", you'll move beyond it in time. The best way to start is to fake it.
Pretend you are not uncomfortable for a few minutes at a time.
Also, feel free to ask him to stop staring. It can get uncomfortable for even the most confident of us, if people stare too often and for too long.
Good luck!

Make a point of smiling at yourself in a mirror, and when he says you're pretty. Also, is there a reason that you don't feel good aout yourself?
