If you have low self-esteem, it could affect not only your work, productivity but also your relationship. A person who has low self-esteem battles their thoughts, doubts, and insecurities, and this affects your relationships. Here are five ways low esteem can affect a relationship,

You can’t express yourself or your emotions                                                        

Communication is vital for a relationship to grow. This promotes  low self-esteem and relationships because it goes together.

You don’t feel confident enough to even stand up for yourself. You also feel insecure and could not express your feelings.

You become possessive

As a partner with low self-esteem depends on their partner, soon, you’ll develop a sense of possessiveness due to fear.

You feel threatened that someone might take your significant other away, or they might tempt this person to cheat.

You are always a victim

Low self-esteem can make one test or sabotage their potentially good relationship. Or it can result in you settling for less.

Low self-esteem can also result in severe defensive mode. One can hide behind childish banters or arguments. You could try and travel the wave and wait it out, but it would rarely set out in your favor.

Promote jealousy

A good life partner will never let you feel jealous; however, the blame cannot be completely one-sided. Jealousy is usually the side effect of low self-esteem. If you think that your partner deserves better, you become more susceptible to the fear of being dumped.

Lack of intimacy

When a person has low self-esteem the person feels insecure, and they won’t be able to let go of their inhibitions and thus won’t reach that level of arousal needed to be intimate in a relationship. Your partner can feel this, too.
