I’m very sad that the world has changed to exclude love, honor, and any semblance of loyalty. It feels selfish to even wish for one when I have so many single girlfriends going through the same things over and over again. Yes, the answer is to be happy all alone and just care for yourself. This seems like such a selfish world to live in when I have so much love to give to a reciprocal man. These are all comments meant to “trigger” an emotional response from you.
Then maybe imago relationship therapy can help you heal from past trauma and avoid triggers to build a more positive relationship with your partner. If you try to address any issues you might have, he’ll just end up blaming it all on you, and act as if you are ambushing him and hurting him. Complicating things and manipulating situations in their favor is something insecure men know very well. In reality, he is simply insecure about himself and thinks that he is not good enough for you, and it’s simply a matter of time when you will dump him for someone better. If you’re texting, he’ll try to stand behind you and read what you’re typing.
Find out where his insecurities started.
He might even just tell he’s “tired.” And maybe he really is (because he partied all night with his buddies the night before). In his up phase he’s meeting you on time and asking you out on wonderful dates, then this turns into him standing you up or canceling at the last minute. He wants to avoid the subject altogether because he’s not sure how he feels about you. When he’s overly resistant to this it’s often because he just doesn’t know how far he wants this thing to go. A guy you like is out on a date with you in public and he’s checking out other women. So you’ll see his feelings peek out and then suddenly vanish.

One of the most common complaints from women about their partners
is that they don’t listen to – or remember – what they say. So if your man
always remembers the conversations you have and picks up on the little things
you say, it might just be a sign that he loves you. How irritating is it when your man interrupts you or you see him doing the same to others? It’s as though he’s not even listening to what they’re saying; he just wants to chime in and become an important part of the conversation. It is totally unbecoming and makes him seem like his social skills are subpar.
Sure, everything else might be perfect, but some guys are totally focused on the one thing that isn’t. Two people get along great—laughing and doing all the couple stuff you see in commercials for prescription medications—and then get to the bedroom, and it’s just a big ol’ zero. Everyone realizes it, they agree to part ways, and they maybe even stay friends post-breakup. When you start dating someone new, the energy is electrifying. You want to learn everything about your partner and be physically close to them whenever possible. As you become better acquainted with your partner, the fireworks you first felt start to fizzle.
“Guys who are uncomfortable being CLOSE emotionally or physically to other men, in fear of being gay or emasculated.”
And I think it’s because he might feel “safe” with you. I was dating a guy this Christmas who introduced me to his mother and whole family, said he loved me, said he loved me enough to give me a child, etc., and then he disappeared. He said he’s never introduced any other woman to his family and that they were all shocked and asking about me. We had so many wonderful time together, but then he would get critical of me. Finally, I told him that I’d had enough, the criticism for stupid stuff will stop or I’m leaving, and he then promised not to fight anymore. We had one last good week where we didn’t fight, and then I haven’t heard from or seen him since 18 January.
Scour a local bookstore or search online for relationship advice, much like the advice that you are reading right now. The more you educate yourself about emotional insecurities – where they come from and how to recover from them – the faster you will boost your self-esteem. You don’t want to end up with someone who is attracted to you if you have significant emotional insecurities. Because they can see your insecurities and they also know that your insecurities mean that you are, to some degree, psychologically unhealthy. Men or women who are attracted to individuals who have clear insecurities are “turned on” or attracted based on unhealthy psychological drives. Don’t just sit back on the couch and wait for things to change on their own.
His company starts feeling exhausting, suffocating, and in fact scary. Many of us have dealt with shitty boyfriends in the past who were overconfident and too vain to really care about anyone else. Even if he doesn’t think that you’re having an affair, he’ll think that you have feelings for some other guy. Feeling insecure in a relationship means constantly doubting that the person you’re with really loves you. Your boyfriend could be feeling even more insecure when you’re dressed in short skirts or you show cleavage.

The significance of a romantic relationship cannot be overstated.
From eating only grapefruits to the all-protein plan, he has tried them all and is always looking for the next one to turn to. No matter his shape or size, all this is a sure sign he’s anxious from insecurity. He makes it his mission to follow these eating plans religiously so he can show off his success and prove his willpower. While he may think it’s cool to eat meat six times a day, you’re sticking to your morning bowl of Lucky Charms. When you want to discuss your relationship or something important, does your guy goof off rather than speak seriously? Would he rather joke around than have a mature conversation?
