This is just a collection of observations I have had over the years of some consequences of low self esteem that I don't really see being talked about.
The first is how having a mindset of worthlessness can really distort how good or important sex is or even what sex is. It can lead to a lot of anguish over something that doesn't particularly serve us even when acquired.
The next is letting others down romantically because of not even considering that you would be of value to them. This one is maybe even hard to notice but sometimes people are attracted to you, though never in a million years you would consider it. Then in the first conversation you speak as though there is no chance at a relationship (because of low self esteem) but the other person not knowing any of this is left let down. The third is kind of similar to the first but more in terms of relationships, that in carrying the mindset that you are so undesirable to the average person and unlikable that in the rare event that somehow a person breaks through that, this can be misinterpreted as finally finding the perfect match, and its easy to overlook huge incompatabilities. Because you have the mindset that it was 1 in a million to even have a 'chance'.
