My girlfriend is amazing. I just need help making her see that!

The past relationships that she was in made her feel like crap.
One of the guys cheated on her because she wouldn't have sex with him so he told her she wasn't good enough for him. He's cheated on every girlfriend he has ever had. So I know that was a major blow to her. She's beautiful. I know relationships are built on trust and comfort. Until I help her with this she won't feel completely comfortable around me. If anyone can give me any advice to help her or any advice straight to her it would be much obliged.

This will take a GREAT amount of time. She won't love herself until she is open to the idea of loving herself.

So many women now a days look at themselves and don't like what they see. Its makes me so soo sad. I am sure your g/f is beautiful in many ways but unfortunetly no matter what you do she won't see it until she wants to see herself as beautiful and believe it all you can do it tell her she is beautiful and don't say it 500 times a day because then it looses the meaning but make sure she knows you love her and you wouldn't trade her for any supermodel.

Give her an occation so she can dress up and look her best and when she dresses up all nice and looks all glam than she will feel more confident and feel great.

Make sure people know she is with you and you are proud to have her on your arm.

In time and with you love she will love herself and appreciate you for being there with her.



i know i thank my boyfriend all the time for giving me confidence. i was in a similar situation and now i have confidence up the wazoo... i hope your girlfriend will be the same way.. everyone deserves to feel great and everyone should love themselves. After all they have to live with themselves everyday of their lives.



I wish you the best of luck!!!!... and i thank you for being one of those guys who helps us girls who need it.

What a nice guy u r.If she needs support or encouragement,she needs it from family,friends and also u.Maybe u should tell her what u think is special about her.Bring out her talent.For example, if she plays music u can hear her play it and then compliment her.Or u can also find ways to show that she wasn't the one who is not good enough for the guy.But he was the one which is a jerk.If u succeed she would feel much better.Another way is by making her feel that her presence makes u feel happy.She would feel appreciated.

When it comes to trust, always do as you say you are going to do. Self esteem find out what she is good at and build on that. A craft, hobby, further education, sport etc.
