Dating - My Lack of Self-Esteem/Man's Lack of It

Posted by Susan J on August 13, 2003, at 8:44:09

To continue the dating theme, where I need help most of all..... :-)

My insecurities: I am fairly attractive, but have always been a little overweight. Thanks to Paxil, in part, I'm even more overweight, but I'm losing that. :-) So, I never think men are physically attracted to me. I'm always surprised when they are.

Their insecurities: I am a lawyer. I make more money and have more education than most men I run into, which really doesn't matter to me, but "they" always are bringing it up. At first, they seem fine with it, even admire how independent I am, but then I slowly notice they make comments about me being in the "high class" crowd, or I'm "way too smart for them." ????

I'm not smart, just happen to be a book geek. The crowd I run in may seem way up there, but that's because my peers from law school are now VERY successful and some are high profile (when I'm only moderately successful).

Think my insecurities are making me go for insecure men?
