All of us have a need for words and gestures of love and reassurance. However, if we are in constant need of reassurance because we don't love ourselves, or because of deep insecurities, there may be other issues we need to address. Our spouses will become drained very quickly if they are the only source we have for feeling good about ourselves. We each need to gain a sense of our own self-worth. Understanding our relationship to our Heavenly Father and our Savior, Jesus Christ, is a giant step in that direction. If we often feel anxious about our worth and need constant reassurance from others, a good therapist can help.
