My new girlfriend is very attractive and it makes me feel insecure

Question - (29 July 2013) 3 Answers - (Newest, 29 July 2013)
A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hi

I'm a 24 year old guy seeing a girl of the same age. I fairly recently got out of a 3 year relationship which didn't work and am now seeing this new girl. This is going to sound like a strange issue but here goes... She is really good looking!

I don't consider myself to be ugly at all, would say I'm average looking for sure, but the girl I am now going out with really is stunning. She is a friend of a friend so that is how we got to know each other, but yeah like I said she is really pretty.

I know this shouldn't be a problem and I should be pleased, but it does make me feel insecure and question why she is going out with me. I get that it's presumably because of personality but that doesn't stop me questioning things. I also think she may be insecure as she does not realise how attractive she is. I know I'm being silly, but it does make me feel almost inadequate sometimes. Don't know how to deal with the situation.

Any advice?

theres_always_a_loophole agony auntIt's best if you just enjoy the relationship and not question yourself about why she is with you. The answer is because she wants to be.

Just about all women are insecure about their looks. So she probably feels what you feel a lot of the time. Maybe you are also more attractive than you think? Other people see us different than we see ourselves, and we are our own worst critics.

MsSadie agony auntIs the only sign that she may be insecure/have some underlying issue that she is dating you?

If so, you need to stop questioning the situation. She chose to date you because she likes you. End of story.

If there are other signs that she may have low self-esteem or something, what are they?

Hi - to be fair I had only been broken up with my ex for about a month before starting this new relationship, but it felt like it had been over a while before it ended and I felt ready to move on. I appreciate that girls are insecure but she just doesn't seem to realise how pretty she is.
