Is self esteem the same as conceit?

These concepts have some similarity but they are far from being the same. The term conceit means an overestimation of ones own self worth; conceited people think too well of themselves, and are not as good as they think they are. Self esteem means an appreciation of ones own value and usually is used to indicate an accurate assessment, rather than an overestimation. Any person who is not worthless (and very few people are worthless) should have some self esteem.


How do you deal with self esteem problems?

Do men in general treat women that are thinner and better looking differently from one that is larger heavier?

Men that act like that usually have self-esteem problems and small genitals. So, don't worry about guys like that. Also, thin gorgeous girls think too highly of themselves, having them come off as self-centered. Men do not like girls like that. (Most) Guys do not like girls like that and will only use them for sexual intercourse. However, the gentlemen that come after the bigger ladies with the nice personality will usually be genuine and sweet. Those are the ones to keep around. Good Luck!!
