Is it unhealthy to still like a woman who needs constant validation?

[Anonymous]

She always wants to hear me tell her she's pretty, I can actually relate to her on this.

I'm going to say, "it's PROBABLY unhealthy".

I say PROBABLY because generally ALL women REQUIRE validation. Most humans in general like compliments (men are just used to not receiving them). Women on the other hand are used to compliments flowing there way like water. So to give her NONE will have her questioning your interest in her at all. But needing constant validation, while it might be a sign she has low self esteem. More often than not it means she's actually very narcissistic. And she's just USING you for attention.

Be careful my man.

I'm not much different than her, we both give each other the constant validation we need.

As long as you're not codependent that's ok.
Two people can help eachother heal from wounds. That's beautiful and good. So long as BOTH of those two people are strong enough to stand on there own. If not they become crutches for eachother. And that is bad.

[Asker]

I'd say we could stand on our own, we just prefer the validation. We both thrive on compliments to each other.

There ain't nothing wrong with that my man.👍

Someone who needs constant validation is a liability not all of then are bad per se but it’s a red flag. Especially long term

[Asker]

The thing is, I also need constant validation, so I can relate and we give it to each other.

[Summeroflove]

Well I’ve always told people that being clingy isn’t wrong if both people are clingy same with being distant it’s not wrong if both people are.

So if the relationship works and you can understand one another and give that to one another. Hey

I think I'd find it tiring and annoying, but if it doesn't bother you and you understand her need for this kind of validation, then it's no skin off your nose. She likely has other qualities that balance out this flaw...

[12karen]

You’re her dude, just tell her she’s pretty , that won’t kill anyone bruh

And she will prob give you the validation you need,

its ridiculous but if that makes you both happy why not

[Asker]

We've both had others who thought it was ridiculous, but it clicks with us because we both understand it, it seems.

I dealt with a woman like this and it was absolute hell. It’s unhealthy for them to be like that and unhealthy for you to entertain that because it’s rooted in insecurity and mental illness. They will never feel full available and they will always blame you. These girls require help that you can provide.

Wasn't that a Fairly Odd Parents fairly odd episode? I'm pretty sure Trixie and Timmy had an episode he wishes they were the only two on earth and she drives him insane "tell me I'm pretty"

Every. Sentence. What hell eh pink hat 🫣🙃

Trixie is actually her favorite character

Someone who needs constant validation is essentially running on a tank that never fully fills and that is probably where you are failing. There is always more to a one-sided story like this piece of trolling nonsense.

[menina]

Yes, I think so. She will never be completely pleased. Besides, nobody should need validation from others. It's unhealthy for both of you.

It's also tiring.

[Hunter-40m]

I dont think that it is healthy to need a constant validaton of love it kills its meaning and makes it meaningless these kinds of things are more meaningful when said when the time is right and shown with actions instead of just words

[queenofcardio]

Depends on what you consider “constant” to be. A couple of times every day seems fine and manageable.

[WhitneySnow]

It’s your choice, but that probably gets really annoying

[Asker]

I don't have much room to talk, I also need it

[WhitneySnow]

Then you guys should be very happy together

[In_Trance]

For every amount of crazy, there's someone with an equal amount of crazy that's perfect for them

[jazzy34]

Sounds like a trauma bond to me. Yes, extremely unhealthy. If you can, you both should seek therapy.

[Honeyateleven]

If you find her pretty, then why wouldn't you say her that

[Asker]

It's apparently driven her exs mad with how many times she asked to be called it

[Tonita026]

You’re dealing with an insecure woman.

[jahaims]

Duh.
