Which one do you think is a tougher relationship to navigate: one where the guy or the girl is insecure?

[Rashmixoxo]

I know both aren't easy to handle but what do you think is the tougher one?

For some reason, I think it's the former. Maybe because it's easier for girls to be comforted? I don't know. What do you think?

A relationship where the guy is insecure

A relationship where the girl is insecure

[ohsheeT]

It doesn't matter whether the girl or the guy because the other one has to put up with all the stuff that goes with it if a guy is insecure

He ends up calling her names and yelling and confronting telling her she's a cheater and blah blah blah blah blah

If a girl is insecure she's doing the same thing to him and it's just an endless battle until they probably break up

If you're insecure your partner needs to take you by the hand sit you down and say hey I truly love you and depending on who it is male or female they need to prove that point each and every single day because if they don't it's going to end up in disaster and heartbreak so it doesn't matter who's insecure the other one better make it so they don't feel insecure anymore and they get that Bond and create that Bond because a lot of times once that insecurity starts it doesn't finish until it's over and that's just because the other person doesn't make the effort prove to that person that everything is good

The latter. I agree with you. And socially, it's more accepted for girls to be insecure than vice versa.

[IslaTheWitch]

whoever is insecure can be the death of the relationship... insecurities are the hardest to acknowledge and change... people don't want to work on them because, first, they would have to admit they exist...

unfortunately, a lot of insecurities create a lack of trust... and there is no relationship without trust... in addition they have also a negative impact on communication in the relationship...

and it really doesn't matter who is insecure...

[WhitneySnow]

I think you’re right. But both are tough.

[AviatorTom]

Overall, statistics show that more girls are insecure than guys, so guys get a lot of practice dealing with insecure girls. Girls, on the other hand, rarely see an insecure guy, so when they do, they have a harder time dealing with it.

[Summeroflove]

Both are difficult if they take their insecurities out on you. Let me be clear…. Most human beings have insecurities of some kind or another. But there are people on the extreme end of things

[D_Bone_Steak]

That's a tough question. Both an insecure male or female are basically horrible people to deal with. The female side is just going to keep coming up with reasons to be insecure and the male side will probably try to just hide it and let it keep popping back into the picture like a game of wack-a-mole. Can I just vote that insecure people in general are too much to deal with?

[Anonymous]

I agree. I think guys want something more tangible when it comes to alleviation of insecurity. While women want something more abstract. A woman will believe anything when she really wants to believe it (and will not believe something when she really doesn't want to😆) regardless of what actual reality is. Guys conversely typically want a demonstration of you mean what you say.

[FunkyMonkee]

I don't know! I've been busting ass for 2 weeks to comfort my girl and she just gets more and more enraged due to her own manufactured distrust BECAUSE of her insecurities! I keep trying to help her get over them but she just WON'T LET ME!!

[Flower7]

The first one. Who wants to be with a man who acts like a baby?

[abc3643]

It is ALWAYS when the guy is insecure because, instinctively, women want secure men - and that's both if the woman is secure or insecure.

[Nikki1989]

Nothing more irritating than an insecure male.

[Grond21]

Depending on the insecurity, I agree with you. Girls are seeking security more than boys are, and so he can provide it more easily than she can

[DaBiggestBird]

The broham in this case. He is supposed to be the head of the household, so if he falls apart then so does the rest of the family.

[oldpigg]

If a woman is insecure I would take that opportunity to take advantage of her.

[Caroline91]

@oldpigg I hope you're kidding but, if not, please be sure to have that tattooed on your forehead.

[oldpigg]

@Caroline91 Thanks for the recommendation, old lady.

[Caroline91]

@oldpigg Any time, little boy.

[nawtee_me]

Insecurity comes from trust issues and trust is the bases of any relationship. So either way it won’t last….

[Anonymous]

Relationships are balance. Any unbalance is dead weight.

[Jennz6]

It’s so sad to hear that you were dumped by someone else

[Staximus]

That depends on if you're the girl or of you're the guy

[msc545]

Girls are always insecure and looking for a better thing.

[Caroline91]

@msc545 Whaat? I am totally secure in my relationship. But that can only happen when both people can and do trust the other.

[msc545]

@Caroline91 Until you aren't.

[Caroline91]

@msc545 You're right. There's always a risk. We just went through a major upheaval and came out the other side still together and stronger. But, I'm not going to say it was easy. That's where mutual commitment saved us.

[msc545]

@Caroline91 It's not over.

[Caroline91]

@msc545 Again, you are right. But I choose not to exist in insecurity. At times, ofc, I feel it but I'm not going to let it overshadow the relationship. I think we all feel insecure at times. It just can't be the overriding emotion if things are going to work.

[msc545]

@Caroline91 I understand. but...

[Bklynbadboy12]

Definitely a relationship where the girl is insecure

[SmileyLady]

Both are about equal.

[RingOfFire]

I call it a tie.

[Nifrayu]

I don't think it makes a difference.

[jahaims]

Insecure people shouldn't date

[kaucky1]

Unable to feel it when they touch it down there

[MrZameer]

Girls are more insecure

[Aphrodite2001]

Neither both bring you’s down.

[GlowUpGirly5]

Both are terrible.

[AbbeyOtis2005]

tbh, I don't know.

[eagle1951]

both
