I'm really insecure because of my weight. how can I get over this?

I'm 25 and I'm a GUY MY problem is that I'm way to skinny and weights don't work Yesh I'm doing it right Heavy weights low resp 3 times a day all that jazz 1.5 gm of protein per lb and caloric surplus adding more food "eat more" like they say.

I'm not gonna turn to steroids problem is that being skinny makes me feel inferior. Women don't like skinny men they tend to preffer the bigger healthier looking guys.

Even when I do manage to get into a relationship it's always someone very wrong for me because I feel I don't deserve better. I really don't know how to get over this. because of this I eneded up contracting HPV so thats how you know I choose badly

I want to stop this before I end up with aids or something

    It sounds like you are going through a difficult time right now. Thank you for reaching out for help! The way that you think dictates the way that you feel. If you think negative thoughts about yourself frequently, you are going to feel negative about yourself frequently. To stop this negative cycle, you have to learn how to control you thoughts.

    Sometimes it can help to talk to someone and tell them about what you are going through. Please know that there are people who can and will help you with what you are going through. You may want to consider talking with a counselor at a hotline. There are many hotlines that are 24/7 and will work with you and situations like yours. Some even have email and/or chat if you would prefer. Hopefully, you will continue to reach out!

    Sincerely,

    It only takes 3 years if you work at it full time. That would make you 28, and ahead of 90% of the population. That is a good thing, in my view.
