Boyfriend is Too Good for me - What do I do?

I am very worried that my boyfriend is too good for me and I'm dragging him down. If he wasn't with me he could have his choice out of anyone - he's good looking, kind, considerate, mature, intelligent, et cetera. He has many good qualities and is just what I was looking for. I really don't understand why he is with me. I don't want him to feel guilty and like "Oh I can't leave because that would be morally wrong." and stay with me for that reason. I'm really scared he will find someone as good as he deserves though!

Has anyone else felt this way? Do you have any advice for me please? Please don't flame me :frown: I feel bad enough as it is.

Thanks so much for any help or advice.

If he didn't like you, he wouldn't be with you.

You should be happy and make the most of what you have with him :smile:

Stop worshipping him.
Stay with him for the time being, when he meets someone else, then obviuosly he will dump you, and then you will leave him.
I feel exactly the same with my girlfriend. Shes gorgeous, and I just fully don't understand what shes doing lol.

I've just looking at it like shes been with me for ages, we're in love, we match perfectly but shes just so hot. I'm going to just try not to get too attached. Failed already on that one though.
Kids.

And quick.

What do I do? = Build up your self worth!

Don't be so hard on yourself, your bf obviously likes you and wants to be with you!! He is not too good for you, does he make you feel that way or is it all in your head?

Yes. But if you think about it too much it'll ruin your relationship.

It's kinda funny don't you think :biggrin:
Stop thinking that way, he's with YOU for a reason, just get over it.
If he didn't really like you, or he did think he was too good for you, he wouldn't be with you.

And what makes you so sure that he actually is too good for you. He might think exactly the same thing about you. I think this is more of a case of you putting yourself down rather than you putting him up so high. If so, don't do it! He obviously likes you as he is still with you. So you obviously must be something special.

If I were you, I would forget about it. Enjoy yourself with him, and see where life will take you. You never know where it might take you... :wink:

I have really bad self-esteem and was seeing a psychologist about that and other problems for about 7 years. They discharged me in February as 'cured' :s-smilie: .

He's so nice to me, it's not that he makes me feel that way. He always tells me how much he loves me, sings sweet songs to me and so on. He's wonderful to me :frown: .

He does think the same thing about me! Crazy, I know haha, clearly one of us is wrong :p: ...

Thanks for the advice.
Then consider yourself lucky; you've found someone special :smile:

And I bet he thinks the same way about you too

'Forget' to take the Pill, that'll solve the problem.

Or, get over it! He's with you because he likes YOU! There are probably lovely qualities about yourself that you can't see, but he sees them. He might not even think of himself as highly as you do. Be happy and be the best you you can be (i.e. don't get all bitter and depressed or even worse jealous and suspicious) and he'll stick with you.
Go shag him now, he's YOURS! :p:

Don't worry too much about it as that can ruin the relationship. He obviously likes you that's why he's still with you . Stay calm, be yourself and observe how he acts when the two of you are together. He is not obligated to be with you, he chose to :smile:
lol, he's with you. I don't know how serious this relationship is, but I think that my first sentence indicates his preference.

Btw, I think that the only thing you can do is try to love him even more :smile:

Thanks for the kind comments, you've put a smile on my face :smile: .
Dw too much. I get like this allll the time, it's just insecurity. Try not to let it bother you and take over your life. And try to build up your self-worth. He is with you for a reason! :smile:
