I'm sorry things went south, but I can understand why he would feel the way he does, bcoz insecurity is the opposite of confidence, so not only did he get the opposite of what he thought he was getting, but he was completely blindsided too. That's alot to take in. Maybe you're right, maybe in time being friends, he'll see you and not your insecurities, better yet, maybe in time you can work thru them, and then build a wonderful relationship as a confident whole person, just happy to be herself

I really hope you feel better soon and that everything works out for the best. Take care of yourself and please don't be a stranger! XOXO
