I've started seeing a guy and I have fallen totally head over heels for him. He assures me he feels the same, and as they say, actions speak louder than words and he clearly does love me to bits.
The problem is, that I just can't understand what he sees in me and find myself doubting the relationship all the time, and I can't let myself relax because I'm so sure he'll break my heart. This isn't his problem, it's completely about me, but how can I get over this without ruining the relationship, and without him thinking I am completely neurotic!
You probably should talk to him about you feeling he'll break your heart. So then he can reassure you that he will try not to. (I mean, guys are gonna break your heart. But he might not, if hes that great guy that your saying.)

You have low self esteem issues. Now why it's complicated is you have to figure out why you feel like you have no self worth. Everyone was put here for a REASON. Not to just take up air and space.

In order to have a relationship, you have to have trust. not only in him, but in yourself. Without the confidence you're second guessing yourself.
and gaining self confidence isn't just a 1 man game, he needs to give you constant reassurance, and you need to accept that.
charmed3fanatic answered Monday January 2 2006, 9:51 pm: your problem is .. is that you think that your not good enough for him, not pretty enough, not popular enough.. so what you have to do is learn to love yourself.. push the thought that you have in your head of you thinking that he will break up with you.. you have to evaluate yourself... write a pros list.. of things that you like about yourself or like write up a summery about yourself.. then maybe you can pick out little things that you know he likes about you.. maybe ask him why he likes you so you can start to be confindent in yourself =] i hope i helped and that everything works out like you want it too.. and if you need anything else let me know =] [ charmed3fanatic's advice column | Ask charmed3fanatic A Question ]
