Welcome! You are wise to share your concerns, and even wiser to listen and act on the advice.

I would add that you be very specific with your prayer in this area. Tell God that you don't like feeling this way. Tell Him you want Him to help you remove this trait from your life. Tell Him to give you strength when you begin to have these feelings. I promise you will feel that strength. He will be right there with you. Right smack in the middle of your conversation and thoughts. He will give you the words you need and inner thoughts to feel better about yourself and more secure.

I am so glad you chose to work with this. You are wise to share this with your boyfriend. I pray he is willing to help you through this.

Think positive. Remember we are all created equal in God's eyes!
