The problem is short and sweet: I struggle with self-esteem issues, but feel that I can't tell my girlfriend about it. Not that she wouldn't understand, but knowing that low self-esteem is a turn-off for women (her included), I fear that it would worsen the problem. In other words, talking to her about me feeling unattractive would lead to her becoming less attracted to me. How does other guys deal with it?

In addition, she is getting increasingly annoyed at my lack of emotions and openness. If it wasn't for the pressure of being more open, I guess it wouldn't really be a problem.
