Selling yourself out means accepting behavior that you would otherwise consider unacceptable, or attempting to be someone you’re not. Maybe you don’t speak up anymore, maybe you aren’t the same bubbly, confident person you once were, or maybe you unquestioningly put him and his needs above your own.

A confident person will attract another confident person. An insecure person will unconsciously seek out relationships with men who are insecure and who will make them feel more insecure.

An insecure person will unconsciously seek out relationships with men who are insecure and who will make them feel more insecure. They will want the unavailable guys, the guys who can’t commit, the guys who have walls up. These are the ones they will feel infatuated by, not the ones who show real, genuine interest. Oftentimes this happens because on an unconscious level, the insecure girl feels that if she can break through his walls, or get him to change his ways, then she’ll really be worthy and valuable. This never, ever works. Instead, she just ends up compromising her integrity even further by chasing the relationship.

A big mistake I see women making is blaming themselves when a relationship falls apart. They torture themselves with could haves and should haves. I should have been less needy, I should have been more agreeable, I could have been more supportive, etc. Yeah, you could have done all that, but it wouldn’t have mattered if he wasn’t committed to making it work.
