Yes.That`s the question.how you overcome your own sense of insecurity in a relationship or even in a dating?
How can your partner understand that?Or should you even let your partner know about your insecurity at all??
Really silly question,i know.

There are a lot of possibilities as to why you feel insecure.You need to ask yourself that question and the write down all the reasons you can think of. Let your list for a couple of days or more, and then come back to it, read it over. Don;t change any of what your wrote, Just add to the list your thought and feelings, Then next, either find a good counselor or a good friend who trust to share your Most importantly pray about it every time you feel that way, If your love interest and you have been together for a long time, you be able to talk with him about it and two of you pray together..
Are you sure insecure because of past experiences in your life, if the reasons for the insecurity are due to your basic needs not met and or those needs are in danger of not being met?
Whatever the reasons, make a list any way of the things you can do to take care of you, and to sometimes do things want to do for yourself, and the you need to do to follow your dream and then start on them now...
I hope this helps for you.. God bless!

Before anyone can be able to love somebody, he or she should love himself or herself first. That is why insecurity is considered a major problem when it happens in a partner. Insecurity breeds other negative feelings such as jealousy and mistrust. If it happens, the couple should deal with openly. The one who's feeling insecurity should need to know the root of his/her insecurity and the other party should see to it that the root cause is resolved. They should discuss it without judging each other first. We are all unique and we have our own insecurities always and it is hard to acknowledge these at first. But if we feel that our partner supports us along the way, it won't take long before these matters are resolved.
