The Situation

"He only compliments my physical appearance never my personality"

The Brutal Truth

His behavior shows he values you for your looks, not your character. He may not be emotionally available or ready for a genuine connection. This isn't love; it's superficial validation. You deserve admiration for your full self, not just your appearance!

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might chase after his attention, constantly seeking validation through physical appearance, believing if they look good enough, he will appreciate their personality. This is damaging; it reinforces a cycle of dependence on external validation rather than nurturing self-worth.

đź’­ Something to Reflect On

If your best friend told you this story, what would you tell her?
