I am finding that almost everyone has low esteem and that they feel insecure about themselves in some way or another. Maybe they feel that they are too skinny, too fat, their nose is too big or curved, they don't have big enough breasts, their dick is too small, they're too tall, they're too short... and the list goes on, and on, and on.

Maybe your love is what will reassure them that whatever it is they are insecure about isn't really an issue or maybe it won't, but you won't know unless you try. Sometimes these feelings of insecurity can be cured by someone showing us that we are not what we think, sometimes these insecurities have been pushed on us and ingrained so far that we need professional help to try to heal them.

But, I do know that even people with low self-esteem and those who feel insecure deserve to be loved.

Not really. Sometimes the most perfect people are also the most insecure. It seems silly or weird because you don’t see them that way. I was fascinated by ‘Pamela, a love story’ on Netflix, because of that. I mean, really? Even Pamela Anderson? How can you be on the most Playboy covers of all time, and still be insecure? How much validation can you possibly need? Yet, here we are. It’s worse for girls. Guys forget, or don’t realize it sometimes.

Not necessarily.

How they handles it and what behaviors this drove them to do could have been the issue. How are these feelings manifesting? What actions is this driving them to do?

How she handled the feelings could have been a deal breaker.

Nope. I’d be nice and supportive to him. I like when people are vulnerable with me and I try my best not to disappoint their trust.

Before my last ex I would have voted that it didn’t matter. Actually l would help her with it, reassure her, just like I did my ex.

But insecurity issue is not a joke. It causes a lot of problems. When your partner thinks they’re not good enough for you no matter what you do to show them you love them and value them, it’s a real problem. This was the case with my recent ex and I just couldn’t take it anymore.

It depends. I'll put in some work with her. But she's gotta learn to get over it. I'm not going to keep stroking her ego. Because if I found her UGLY I wouldn't be with her. I can't fix the goblins in her head though. And I'm not going to deal with that s*** indefinitely.

Taking into consideration high social expectations about our bodies I would say the low esteem related to the body is a new disease of civilization

As long as she was nice and was not crazy or an alcoholic I wouldn't even give it a thought.
