Question - (21 February 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 21 February 2011)
A female South Africa age 36-40, *ianca1986 writes:

Hi everyone. I'm a 24 year old female. I really need some help with regards to my love life or rather the none existence thereof.

I met this guy about a month ago and we started dating about a week after we met but it only lasted for a week as well. I have a lot of insecurity issues mainly because my childhood was really messed up and none of my previous attempts at a relationship worked. So my insecurities came out with this guy and he immediately broke up with me.

We remained friends after the break up and I was even desperate enough to get away from my loneliness and the resentment that I feel towards myself, that I suggested that we could be friends with benefits. I only suggested that because I thought that it would draw him closer to me and that it would give him a chance to get to know me better. Anyway, we didn't even kick off the friends with benefits thing when he told me that he couldn't do that anymore because he has a girlfriend now. I was heart broken because I was really falling for this guy, enough to compromise everything that I believed in. I believe that sex is for marriage and as a result I am still a virgin but I was willing to give that up for him even though he kept telling me that he just wanted to be friends.

How do I heal from my insecurities and what is wrong with me that I can't have a relationship without messing it up? Please help me
