I don't know why I am constantly seeking approval of others. If I do something around the house, or something with my work and it goes unnoticed, I feel hurt and ignored. I don't know why I am always wanting some form of recognition. I am always so afraid of letting others down or failing that if something goes unnoticed (or more probably, just nothing was said)I feel as though I have failed. I exude self confidence often, but inside I often feel like a needy child just wanting to know she has done good!

I crave approval too. Can never get enough of it, and it hurts not to get it. Maybe it feels like being a needy child, because that is a need we had as children that wasn't fulfilled, so now that part has never been able to grow up and is still trying to get that need met.

I think everyone needs this to a certain point.
But if some people didn't get it as a child, they will surely crave for it when adult. It's something that every parent should give to a child. (((((((((Sabrina))))))))))) |
