    my boyfriend, after about 2 months, told me he doesn't feel he deserves me, that I'm good at everything and he's nothing and he's just in my way.
    This could not be farther from the truth. He helped make me what I'am, and when I'm with him the rest of the world just fades away (corny but true). I have told him that he is part of me and made me what I'am today and I love him and need him. He does love me and would never hurt me, but it hurts me to hear that he feels inferior.
    Any suggestions?? He's my whole world.....please help me out here...

    I didn't tell him the part about the rest of the world fading away, but I said that he made me who I'am.
    He said, 'No. I just came along at the same time.'
    *sighs* I don't know how to tell him he's my world and make him see he is......
    thanks for your advice I will continue telling him exactly what I've said here....that he's my world and I love him....

    Is he trying to make an excuse to break up with you? Or does he really have an inferiority complex? It sounds almost like he just wants an easy out.

    Talk to him, tell him that you love him, need him, want him, he is your man, etc. and that you feel he has done for you what he feels you have done for him. Tell him not to leave the relationship for fear that YOU are not happy, because you are (and you would know, being yourself and all...), but tell him that if for some reason he wants OUT of the relationship for some other reason, that you guys need to discuss that seperately.

    thanks kaitlin, but he really doesn't want out of the relationship.
    I asked him once if he was happy with us, he said Yes, I'am. but took it to mean I wanted out, so he said you do what you want I'll always be here. we worked past that, and he told my friend that he would never hurt me....and he knows breaking up would hurt me....so that's not it, thanks anyway kaitlin...

    If he doesnt want out of the relationship, he is just insecure. Just show him you love him as much as he does, tell him, etc.

    Just make him feel comftorable, but it seems like he loves you more than him (one person always loves more in a relationship) and you have to be careful with him, just make him feel supported and like he is the world to you.
