Guys do you get annoyed if your girlfriend has low self esteem?

[Anonymous]

I've had eating disorders for over 15 years and have recovered physically, but I'm still quite uncomfortable in my body at times.
I'm now a healthy weight, a little curvy and feel a bit chubby but my boyfriend always gets annoyed if he hears me say something negative about my appearance.

Even if I am a little chubby or bigger than I'd like, is it more attractive if I'm comfortable in my body the way it is and confident in my appearance?

Realistically? Yes. Confidence is attractive in women, too. And men are problem solvers; it's how we evolved. (This is why, if you come to your boyfriend with a problem, he's going to assume you him to help solve it).

If I realize that she's got low self-esteem, I'm going to start thinking of how I can help build it up.

It’s especially annoying when she has no reason to be

He’s likely frustrated that you complain but don’t take actions to change. Guys are wired to fix things and take action on problems. If you keep venting and he knows the next day he has to hear the same insecurities that’s trying his patience.
