I'm suffering from depression, low self esteem and really bad aniexty, i hate leaving the house, and i feel like having somone to pay me some attention and make me feel abit pretty for once would be a big help.

i get told im stunning by friends but ive never met anyone that really likes me apart from one guy who lead me on for ages just for sex, then didnt speak to me again.

up until a month or two ago when he apligised. and me being the nice person i am accepted his apolgy and left it. He kept trying to add me on facebook but i kept ignoring it. But i seen him about 2 weeks ago and we had a chat so i thought i might aswell have him on my facebook.

The sad thing is i feel constatly low and whenever he talks to me this streak of happiness runs through me, and even though i know nothing will come of it, i love talking to him.

I just want to meet somone who actaully likes me, and its not just me liking them.

Its so hard knowing nothing will come of it but you love speaking to them, and if they say something nice to you you feel happy inside even though you shouldnt.

any advice on how to overcome feeling low and stop letting him control my feelings?

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (17 October 2009):

Here is the first thing about men. Bad men (this guy yoou're speaking to), see an underconfident girl and instantly know that they can be controlled and used. He is using you because you're vulnerable at the moment and in need of affection.

That said, the first thing you need to do is either see a doctor or a therapist. If you're despressed, it is essential that you get help to understand why you feel this way. If you don't, you won't be happy with yourself at all, and only bad men will approach you.

Good guys are attracted to girls who are confident in themsevles. You must spend time on yourself, getting to know what you like and becoming independent and strong (a therapist will help a lot). Once you've done that, you'll find that better men will be attracted to you. Give yourself time and love yourself. You're not a bad person, adn you've been told you're beautiful. Lots of luck :)
