Hi All,
Its been a while since I had posted anything here but I feel I am really struggling and would be really glad if I can get some help.
So me and my gf are together for past 1 year now and its a long distance relationship.It has been ok going but we have been fighting a lot.Sometimes I feel that she does'nt take me her 1st priority like fexample when we go out with some frnds she is more interested in talking to others and I feel ignored.
I know I should not take things personally but everyday is a struggle for me.I just can't understand why everyone eventually leaves me.I try to be good friends and help and do whatever I can do but I don't know what is it abt me that repel people.Everyday I eat my lunch alone,go out alone do everything alone.It has literally crushed my self confidence,and when even my gf does something like that I feel like shit.
My parents always considered other kids and children to be better than me whether it is looks,academics or whatever.
I don't know a way out and I am going crazy thinking abt this.
Please does anyone ever felt this way?

As for your parents, I consider that emotional abuse and I grew up with it. I hated it. Looking back, I don't think they meant harm, they just didn't realize what they were saying. For instance here is a complement from my Aunt, "if you didn't have ache you would be a very pretty girl". She thought that was a compliment. All I heard was ache. I could go on and on. It really did a number on me, and, I grew up thinking everyone was better than me when they looked at me they saw a monster. That didn't do to much for my ego. Sometimes I felt like I was going to explode if I heard them comparing me to the negative one more time. She smarter, more social, dresses better, prettier, better manners, I wish you could be like that. Once, I got a job in a really nice nightclub. I tell my Mom and her reaction was, "good, maybe they can teach you how to dress". Oh, I let them, I dressed like a whore the entire time I worked there. I think she was glad when I went back to my regular style of dressing.
I am a loner by nature, so I don't understand feeling alone. If I want company I make the effort to become friends. But, like I said, I prefer to be alone. I guess I live in my head.
Good luck to you. I hope you find you some friends. I do know that long distance relationships are very hard. But, worth it if you love someone.good luck.
Also suggested is talking to her. That is a good idea.
