How to Banish Insecurity and Embrace Confidence in Love

Most people have something that they are insecure about and when it comes to love, insecurities can be quite severe. The best way to make yourself happier and to show your love for someone, is to try to be more confident. If you can banish insecurities and embrace confidence in love, then you will be a better and more loving partner and both you and the one you love will be happier.

Before you can love someone else you need to be able to love yourself. Re-frame the way you think about your flaws to make them positives and try to be happier about the way that you think and feel. When negativity starts, take a moment to tell yourself that you are in control of your life. Think positively. Smile and remind yourself of the good things that you need to focus on. When you re-frame your thinking in a more positive fashion it becomes easier to silence those nagging insecurities.

Sometimes insecurities come from external forces. If your friends are holding you back or bringing you down, then you will need to change who you spend time with. If you are scared of being hurt, then find a way to fight that fear by proving to yourself that even if that bad thing you are imagining happens to you then you will be able to carry on living and recover. Depending on the approval of others is a bad thing and if they notice that you are needy then they will want to withdraw from you. Find the strength in yourself to do your own thing and you will be far more confident and far more appealing. Love will come from others when you can give it freely and willingly yourself.
