6 Things Men Do When They Lack Self-esteem In Relationships
1) They apologize too often
Men who have low self-esteem will usually over-apologize – even when they’ve done nothing wrong.
They don’t do it to be annoying (even though it can grate on your nerves after a while), but rather because they fear losing your love!
2) They may be over critical
If your man criticize you instead of himself, it could be that he’s trying to draw the attention away from his own perceived flaws and shortcomings by putting the spotlight on you instead.
3) They get jealous easily
So why does this happen when men have low self-esteem?
Well, essentially, it comes down to the fact that they don’t feel like they’re good enough.
They fear you leaving them for someone else, so they overreact, even to the point of control, just to avoid feeling this way.
4) They sacrifice their own needs
And part of the reason why men with low self-esteem don’t feel good about themselves is that they neglect a lot of their needs and desires.
Unfortunately, this creates a toxic, unhealthy cycle!
They end up feeling run down, stressed out, and unfulfilled, which could lead them to resent you – even though you didn’t ask them to go out of their way for you.
5) They struggle with decision making
When men lack self-esteem in a relationship, it may affect how they make decisions…
So, if your man also struggles to do simple things without asking for your opinion, now you know why…
6) They avoid intimacy
Another thing men in relationships do when they lack self-esteem is avoid getting physical.
Again, this relates to their low sense of self-worth, and not feeling good enough.
If your man rejects you in the bedroom, it’s probably not because he doesn’t find you attractive, but he wonders why YOU find HIM attractive.
Which is really sad when you think about it!
