Sometimes you just have to tell yourself that it's okay to be you. Whatever that means. All of your quirks and little eccentricities. It's okay.
I tell myself that whenever I think about the ways I may be unattractive to others, whenever I wonder if I'm can be called an attractive person, or whenever a situation arises that makes me feel less like a human being. Instead of worrying about my perceived flaws, I try to work on my attitude towards life and adjust.
It probably comes down to my obsession to be loved by those who aren't socially obligated to love me. This leads me down the road to making less of myself so that others could feel like I'm nonthreatening and in effect not as important. I think that I automatically assume that I deserve to be treated like shit because that's what I'm worth. I scare away people who look past that, or I try to convince them to believe that I'm nothing myself.
This is a hard thing to correct, but it's not impossible.
