dear cupid,

my girlfriend keeps saying im amazing and that im like this superman to her, but the thing is, im just not, im a bi polar self harmer who has gone from one place to another, and i know that she really is the best thing to ever happen to me.

i probably sound really silly, but everytime she says something like "imm so lucky to have you" i just feel like im letting her down by not being as good as i know i could be.

she always says that im amazing because im able to cope with loads of stuff, like getting raped, but i know that im just one of the lucky ones who hasnt died yet because i had someone to stop me from jumping off a bridge.

the question bit is:

how do i stop feeling so worthless that i feel like i dont deserve her in any way shape or form?

Okay i totally know were your coming from, like i havent been thru what you have but i always think that im really not that great of a person. and this girl seems really special to you. and those things that happend to you just make you stronger and she see's that in you and knows that you will always be there for her. so i think you should just beleive that you are amazing because im sure you are and dont let your past ruin your future. because you dont want the greatest thing thats ever happend to you(your girlfriend) to be taken away because of smthing that happend in the past.

I had a boyfriend just like you a couple of months ago. My answer is that if your girlfriend thinks you're awesome, why question it? Why would she be with you if you weren't fulfilling some need that she has? My advice is to change the way you think about it...Instead of thinking about how many things you do wrong, think about all of the times that you do have done something right. Think about that time you made her laugh until she almost peed her pants or that time you were able to provide a shoulder to cry on or whatever your situation is. Things that have happened to you in the past don't limit what you can do or who you can be.
