My partner travels a lot. she is gone 10days and home 4days. I find myself wanting to call her all the time. She works very hard and I understand that but I miss her. I call and wake her up for work and she calls me on her way into work. We talk before she goes to bed. I guess one of the biggest things is I do all the talking, she will answer a direct question but doesnt usually say much.. She does lots of taking at work but still.. Sometimes its like Im talking to a wall. Our conversations are usually very short cause she gets mad if I ask if she is ok or if something is wrong.

So when she comes home I just want to hold her and never let go... She says Im pushing her away. I know I need to give her some space but I would think being gone 10days would be space.. all I want is for her to show more intrest in our relationship..

I think her traveling has made me more insercure,

Do you have other outlets for socializing? Because frankly, you sound more lonely than you do insecure.

I have a full-time job and a part-time job. Im going to drop my part-time job down to one day per week and star school. She tells me all the time I need to go do things, I feel guilty if I think about having fun while she is out working. And you know people always ask where is your other half. My ex and I hardly ever did things together. I dont want someone else to fill any voids I may have.. I love her and dont want to keep pushing her away by holding her so tight.. Im hoping school will keep my mind busy.. she is a great woman.

Insecurity is a feeling of general unease or nervousness that may be triggered by perceiving of oneself to be vulnerable in some way, or a sense of vulnerability which threatens one's self-image.

A person who is insecure lacks confidence in their own value, and one or more of their capabilities, lacks trust in themselves or others, or has fears that a present positive state is temporary, and will let them down and cause them loss or distress by "going wrong" in the future. This is a common trait, which only differs in degree between people.

This is not to be confused with humility, which involves recognizing one's shortcomings but still maintaining a healthy dose of self-confidence. Insecurity is not an objective evaluation of one's ability but an emotional interpretation, as two people with the same capabilities may have entirely different levels of insecurity.

Insecurity may help to cause shyness, paranoia and social withdrawal, or alternatively it may encourage compensatory behaviors such as arrogance, aggression, or bullying, in some cases.

The fact that the majority of human beings are emotionally vulnerable, and have the capacity to be hurt, implies that emotional insecurity could merely be a difference in awareness.

Cherish believes that God made her with a special purpose. Like any teenage girl, she has her insecurities, but for the most part she has a real healthy self-esteem.

“Be careful not to mistake insecurity and inadequacy for humility! Humility has nothing to do with the insecure and inadequate! Just like arrogance has nothing to do with greatness!”
