Self esteem and relationships
Boost your self esteem newsletter Issue # 3
People with low self esteem sabotage their relationships. They feel responsible for the other's people feelings or happiness. Don't set boundaries and become pleasing with their partner. If you have a good self esteem you will do things that feed this feeling.
Characteristics of healthy relationships
Healthy relationships are based on love, respect, trust and sharing. In order to have respect and trust for your partner you have to respect and trust in you.
To be comfortable with others you have to be comfortable with yourself. Consider your feelings about yourself. Notice if you can be yourself or you lack trust and confidence:
- Do you really believe that you deserve love and happy relationships ?.
- Can you accept that the other person loves you or do you feel unlovable in your relationship?.
- Do you have enough self confidence to set boundaries in order to have healthy relationship with your partner?.
As Nathaniel Branden said:
"The higher our self esteem, the more disposed we are to form nourishing rather than toxic relationships. Health is attracted to health. Vitality and expansiveness in others are naturally more appealing to persons of good self esteem than are emptiness and dependency. Self-confident women and men are naturally drawn to one another. Alas, insecure women and men are also drawn to one another.
If you hope to achieve a happy relationship with another person, no factor is more important than self esteem -- in you and in the other person. There is no greater barrier to romantic success than the deep- seated feeling that one is unlovable.
The first love affair we must consummate successfully in this world is with ourselves; only then are we ready for a relationship. Only then will we be fully able to love, and only then will we be able fully to let love in -- to accept that another person loves us".
A healthy self esteem is the first step for love and happiness within a relationship. An important factor for romantic success. Knowing that you deserve love and respect will create more trust and happiness with your partner.

It's surprising how many persons go through life without ever recognizing that their feelings toward other people are largely determined by their feelings toward themselves, and if you're not comfortable within yourself, you can't be comfortable with others." -- Sydney J. Harris
