Self-esteem and relationship problems?!


Question: Self-esteem and relationship problems!?
Ok i'm about to spill my heart because I need help, so bear with me!.

When I was a kid, I went to very small schools (25 people or less) up until high school!. I was very shy and lacked social skills!. Middle school is where problems began to happen!. I let people take advantage of me on a daily basis and got made fun of alot!. That gave me low self-esteem!. What was extremely important to me was having a girlfriend when I was in middle school even when I was in 6th grade, but it never happened!. It devastated me that I couldn't get a girlfriend, so I thought it was because of the way I looked (the low self-esteem issue)!. I REALLY liked a girl in middle school and became obsessed with her!. She turned me down 3 times and I became extremely depressed for 1 year!. I started losing weight and I became disgustingly skinny!. I was somewhat skinny even before this!. This grossed out the girls in my class and I became even more depressed!. If I found out a girl didn't like me, I would completely ignore her, even if we were friends before that!. I still struggle with that problem today!.

I got my chance to change in high school, because I moved far away from New Jersey, where I used to live, to Colorado!. It was a fresh start for me and I loved it!. I regained the weight, made actual friends, and became very social and outgoing!. The first 2 years were great, but these last two I've noticed that my past is catching up to me!. I've become very negative lately for no apparent reason, even though i'm a very happy person!. My biggest problem is that I still have self-image problems!. For example, I always feel the need to change the way my hair or face looks because I think that I could do way better, even though I look perfectly fine!.

My real problem though is with women!. I didn't get my first girlfriend or kiss until I was 18!. When I was in the relationship, I was really clingy!. I wanted to talk to her all the time because I had waited so long to have a girlfriend!. She could only take 2 weeks of that and broke up with me!. It hurt, but I got over it in about 3 weeks!. My problem with girls now is that if i think I say something weird to a girl I like, it ruins my whole day!. I feel the need to be perfect when talking to her!. I always worry about what she'll think about the clothes i'm wearing!. Or if she doesn't show up to class, it ruins my day also thinking about lost opportunity with her!. Its during these times that I'll make a change of appearance with my hair, because I think that I look better a different way (low self-esteem issue from middle school)!. I've been told many times that i'm good looking, and I can see it, but I don't really believe it (sorry if I sound vein)!.

I just need some advice, how can I overcome my self-esteem issues, my recent negativity, and my clingyness towards women!? I don't want to sabatoge every relationship i'm in, because its happened twice already and I can see a pattern forming!. Please read the whole thing to truly understand my problem!. Thank you for your time:)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ugh we are so much alike!. So with that I believe it is a common problem!. I just wrote a paper on cliques and bullying and how damaging it is if it doesn't kill the child first! You may need therapy for the self-esteem issues if they have not gone away by now!. You need someone to direct you to a place where you can say, "Hey, not everyone will think my looks are attractive and I'm okay with that!." I personally cannot help you there!. Your negativity could stem from the hatred or guilt, or whatever the emotion is that you feel about yourself and your esteem!. Humans can only take so much so long!. This may or may not go away!. If you feel it's a big problem then get help for that too!.

I have tried many different methods to rid my clingyness!. I try to keep myself busy doing fun stuff and it would be easier if I had a car, so I can go to the movies, or go home, etc!. So that usually backfires!. Then I may try not to bother the person for the whole and sometimes your significant may think, "Well why are they ignoring me now!?" So my number 1 plan would be to keep yourself busy!. When you're doing things, you're not as anxious as to when you will talk to her again because your mind is preoccupied!. I don't know if homework will help, but it's a great time to get that stuff done!. :D Also try to stay away from other girls!. In such a stage, you will be more easily drawn into cheating even though you don't really mean it, especially if someone else is giving you the certain amount attention you need!. Also, I usually warn a guy that I need a lot of attention and ask him if he can handle it before jumping into a relationship!. It doesn't always work t hough!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
