It's not uncommon for partners to feel insecure in a relationship. However, most people are unaware of their insecurities. Few flawed beliefs and fears hold them back from developing a deeper connection with their partner. Those insecurities aren’t always the fault of the partner. If you are honest with each other and sure about the connection you are looking for in a relationship, you can figure out ways to move past them and transform your relationship. Since most men might not realize the signs of insecurities in a relationship, here we bring to you seven common things make men feel insecure.
When a girlfriend pays compliment to another man
If the partner compliments the look or success of any other guy, it makes most men feel out of line. He won’t let that go out of his mind for a long time. But guys, that’s okay. If your partner genuinely compliments another man, it shouldn’t make you feel inferior. Accept it as a kind gesture made towards the other person. It’s that simple.

Sexual ability
Nothing makes men more insecure than the idea of being lousy in. Men constantly worry about their sexual performance. Ease off, guys. You don’t have to be a dynamo. Forge a secure attachment with your partner that grows over time because most women seek an emotional connection even during physical intimacy. Instead of making assumptions, ask your partner about her treasured moments and you are good to go.
When he has been cheated on before
When a man falls in love again just after an ugly break-up, he might still feel intimidated by the bitter experience of the past. As a result of which, he might develop a generalised idea and later start validating their misconceptions. Guys, you need to take it easy, don’t beat yourself up too much for what happened in the past. We cannot hold onto the damage of our past relationship and punish our current partners. Not all women are the same.
The ex-partner of a girlfriend or wife
No matter how many times a guy says that he has the least problem with you being friends with your ex, do not believe him. Most men end up subconsciously comparing himself to the ex-partner of his girlfriend or wife. But guys, if your partner is in touch with her ex, it does not mean she is still in love with him.
Presence of male friends
There is nothing wrong with having male friends. A suggestion for women: if you spend a considerable amount of time with your guy friends or talk to them often, be very honest about it. Lying about it will only give your boyfriend reasons enough to doubt you. It will be always in the back of his mind, that you might break up with him for a better guy. So, having male friends isn't wrong but lying about them can make a boyfriend feel insecure in a relationship.
