"It was a nonpliment. He told me that he'd been with a lot of pretty girls, but he'd rather be with someone like me who is smart and funny."

Nonpliment

A neutral statement made in a situation where a compliment could be reasonably expected. Often used after artistic presentations ("Wow, you were onstage for like the whole thing", "I didn't realize you had so many songs", "I don't think I've ever seen you paint something this big."), nonpliments are the grey area between saying something nice and not saying anything at all.

I went to opening night and could only muster some nonpliments when I saw her after the show.

The review was pretty nonplimentary.

Nompliment 

Using a descriptive word (adjective, e.g. tasty, delicious, spicy) pertaining to words most commonly used with describing food as a compliment.

"Your face is tasty"
"Why thank you for the nompliment"

As you can see here, said person is using 'tasty' to describe someone as being attractive.
