relationship help: There’s a man at work who thinks he isn’t good enough for me. - Help.com

There’s a man at work who thinks he isn’t good enough for me.

Everyone else agrees and says I am mad to be attracted to him, simply because they don’t think he is good looking. I think he’s great though no matter how he looks. He makes me laugh and feel good when he’s around. I hesitate to get into anything with him though, because I don’t think I’d be good enough for him. I think I would have a negative impact on his life because of how I am living at the moment. You see, I’m taking prozac and hardly get out of the house except from when I work. I often dislike being around groups of people and must be very boring for the lack of activity in my life. They say I can do better - but I find it the opposite. I’m scared to bring him down or something because of how I am. I wouldn’t say this to him I don’t think, because he may think I am making up excuses. Well, today I gave him my number to text me because a friend of mine advised me to ‘f*** it’ and go for it anyway so I made a small step. But.. I feel guilty as though I’m going to be this drain in his life. I don’t want that for him. He really doesn’t deserve that. I’m trying to get over my problems, but not leave it to late for he and I to have any sort of relationship. People were putting him down today as they learned I gave him my number and before. Must be nice to feel like you are better than others eh? I don’t understand them and it only makes me like this genuine guy all the more in contrast to them.
