It might be a long post, but i d really apreciate the help! The thing is i dont know whats wrong with me!
My main concern is that i ve never been with a girl... im 17 and its kinda annoying me, i think thats what s driving my self esteem so low. But what really bothers me, is the fact that i have lots of friends, male and female, im not afraid to talk to girls, i dont suck at talking to them, im not shy at all, ive been told sometimes that im good looking, but i just cant do it! And i really dont know why... but its really killing my self esteem....i overthink things most of the times. To give an example lets say i ve been talking to this girl on tinder, and she seems to like me, i arrange to meet up, and then she says her aunt fell down the stairs and she wont be able to make it in time...she might be telling the truth, but the first thing i come up with, is that she s just making up and excuse and sort of messing with me, making fun of me... i think i have low self esteem, i really do, but the tiniest **** brings me down, even if it is for a short while, for example, i look like **** in most of the photos, and it kinda depresses me for a bit (not for a very long time though) to see a photo where i look like crap... it s really hard to explain... Id apreciate if anyone could give me a hand, an advice, whatever! Thank you people! |

Hi Situsso. Welcome to Psych Central. Sorry to hear you are suffering from low self esteem. That is not a problem with you but a problem with the opinions you have about yourself. Opinions can be changed.
17 is young. Young women are fearful and anxious about dating. Becoming a friend to a woman builds trust and confidence. From their seeing someone is more possible. I cannot give you advice to solve your problem because I do not know what is practical in your country, but as I stop trying to get something from others and learn to listen and respond to what they are saying and feeling, people feel like I am a friend.

If she seemed to like you and agreed to meet you, and if you think you're good looking and she left all of a sudden after meeting you... I'm just thinking out loud of possible reasons... like you don't have bad breath? or maybe body odour? If you don't have any of these... then maybe simply you're not her type. So what. It is impossible to make everyone like you. You don't need everyone to like you, you just need one person to like you. I'm pretty sure you can find one. You are attracted to girls sexually?
