Idk. I usually feel that way. And get dumped:( ...but sometimes they feel that way...and still dump me. -_-

I'd be on the opposite side of that arrangement.

well, the fact that anyone would think that says to me, that they've got some self-esteem issues and quite frankly, there is absolutely nothing you can do to help them. that is a personal battle that stemmed from something in their life, long before you came along and your presence apparently, gives it fuel. you have two options...stick it out or walk out. either way, the struggle for self-love and appreciation will remain. you could try to talk to them and find out how or where it developed, but if they don't think they deserve you, they probably won't feel confident or comfortable enough to devulge that information. if you love them and want to stay...pray for them to open up and or develop security. you could compliment them all day long, but you see...it doesn't matter what you think, it matters what they think of themselves and you simply don't have the power to change another's perception. good luck.

Oh gosh, this is hard. Usually, for me, it's the other way around, so I'll respond in, what I can only assume, is their reactions. They get all wide-eyed, and slightly tilt their head to the right, thinking I'm some crazy person. One of them even told me, "How can you say that? You're a beautiful person, in and out! You deserve a good person. If anything, you're too good for me."
^ That's where I can put my two-cents in, by saying the exact same thing they did.
Them: "... You're too good for me."
Me: "The hell kind of drug are you on? Look at you! Everything about you... your hair, eyes, personality... even the clothes you wear!! You're a wonderful soul. I can't even fathom how you're willing to be with someone like me, let alone be friends with me."
