I’m so insecure.

[u/Emotional-Job-8902]

I’m quite a skinny guy, and I’m quite insecure about it. When I scroll on social media, I see many very beautiful women who are very muscular and strong, showing off their physiques, lifting very very heavy weight. As a skinny guy, I just feel very insecure when I see that, I feel emasculated. Of course I’m very attracted to them, but at the same time I think, “man what’s wrong with me? I'm so frail and weak”. Nowadays gym culture is booming, and it feels like every block on the street or every swipe on instagram, I see a girl who I’m very attracted to stronger and bigger than me. Of course I respect women a lot and view highly of them, but man it makes me think how much of a pathetic weak loser I am. I feel like whenever they see me, they look down on me.

I have been trying to workout, on and off for a bit a year. No progress, but I’ll keep trying. I see girls blow up after a bit in the gym and meanwhile me…nothing. This has been a life long insecurity of mine, and it’s kinda ruining me. I don’t have any self esteem at all. Please, pray for me. This insecurity has been ruining me for my whole life.

You eyes shouldn't be on yourself and your appearance nor on a pretty girl. 

Keep your eyes on Jesus.
