My insecurities started with my mother. She always told me I would never amount to anything and no man would ever want me. So I jumped at my 1st chance to get married and was in a verbally abusive marriage for 19 years. He also told me I wasn’t worth anything and no other man would ever want me. I went through counseling and became a Christian and tried to find my value through God. My next relationship was 6 years with a man who wouldn’t commit and left me when I gained weight.that is were my insecurities come from. I have never felt more comfortable in my own skin than I do with the man I am dating right now. After thinking things through I can wait a while to label anything but not 6 years again.
