Although as a note, If she's like, way better looking than you then it's probably a rejection.

My dating advice is procured from comedy sitcoms where pursuing a girl until she finally says yes is considered romantic.

But at this point, if she decides she is interested in him, she will reach out to him. She already knows he is interested.
It isn't fun being asked out and having to turn someone down. I wouldn't make her have to go through it a third time.
I'd normally agree, if she flat out rejected him. But she said "I'll have to think about it" that automatically leaves the door open. I think "hey, have you given going out with me any more thought?" is appropriate. Then you can get a more clear answer.
Btw, not that this is relevant to this case, but in many countries a man is expected to ask a girl out multiple times before she says yes.

She is letting him down easy. I've done it myself many times. Saying no is very hard.

She's a woman. Of course she's way better looking. Men are either wannabe pretty boys or caveman meatbags. Neither being as pretty as even the ugliest women. And I say this as a handsome man

Really? I like light blue eyes the best. But Basically any color is better than brown imho.
