Girlfriend has low self-esteem

you have to differ. There is a normal amount of female insecurities, they make comments like how they cant believe that you stay with them and that they are not really happy with their looks.

But on the other hand, there are girls, who jsut fish for compliments with the typical "im soooo uggly ;)))" Tweet. That is over the top and potentialy neurotic

>How do I help her boost her self esteem and not to be so self conscious all the time?

You can't prop up your broken girlfriend's self esteem. Eventually, you will collapse under the weight of it. She needs to get professional help.

She has low self esstem either because she is always comparing herself to others or just cant let go something that effected her doing childhood.
More or less I would drop her becuase she will cheat on you with someone else to "build" self esteem, I fucking kid you not she will likely cheat.
Best to drop her now than when you find out she fucks someone or something else. You've been warned

I usually cannot agree with propel who make grand statements like this, but I've seen it so many times that I feel now it's a legitimate worry.

Well, you're definitely not going to talk her out of it.

This kind of feeling and insecurity isn't something that is really rational or reasonable - the insecurity is as much a part of her as her hair.

Much like how hair can be controlled and maintained, however, so can those very same insecurities. It's not something that just gets cured, it's something you learn to fight and win against.

The absolute best thing you can do as her bf is not to play therapist or to be her sole support group, but to empower her to go out and do stuff. Plan trips and different activities. Try everything. She's going to find something - a hobby or an interest or whatever - that she actually really enjoys and it'll make her feel more confident in her sense of self and her identity.

It's even better if it's something that's social or involves other people.

One thing I would warn you against is to fight back any sudden pangs of jealousy. Just because she becomes stronger and more independent doesn't make you any less important in her life.

Unless you want her to leave you do not, i repeat, do not boost her self confidence. Shell start seeing herself highly and decide you are not good enough for her.

Welcome to /adv/ general, where the threads are plagued with insecure faggots. Enjoy your stay :)

Is her esteem an actual issue? Are we addressing something that doesn't necessarily need fixing? I'm just concerned about pushing something where it doesn't need to be. She was certainly confident enough to get with you. I'm sure she has friends as well.

My ex had a pornography addiction that killed my self esteem and unfortunately my current boyfriend has to deal with me feeling inadequate all the time. He does his best to make me feel attractive and I do feel the most beautiful I've ever felt, but I still wish I was better for him.

Can you point to an issue like this that might be her trigger?
