Bugging Low Self-esteem

. . . Can't comment that . . .
Coz, I'm just like Onodera right now... I hv a low confidence of myself and when ppl r telling me about my gud part, to me it's only to cheer me up. So, I can't dislike Onodera... I wonder if it's coz melancholic? (〜￣△￣)〜 Well, whatever.

I understand that people have low self-esteem. However, this man is 26 years old, and at that age, most have rather good self-esteem. If they don't, it's mostly because something big has happened to affect them. But thus far, nothing indicates that Onodera has gone through anything rather traumatic in order to bring down his self-esteem ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

I'm 20 by the way. Hahahahaha!
Maybe he has low self-esteem coz the way his mother acted to him all these time? Speaking of it, I suddenly want to know Onodera's parent.

I think his low self-esteem is because he doesn't see himself as a good editor and wants to improve. He's a fairly new to editing shoujo manga, and it never said he was a good editor for literatures, just that he had advantages because his parents.

Hi Coccchanel!
I am 24 and my personality is a lot of as Onodera´s. Maybe that is the reason why I like his character. I do not have problem with self esteem, but 2 years ago I was wretched. I pushed away everyone, who wanted to help me. I have the same issue as Onodera. I was hurt in past and I am afraid of loving someone again or just get too close to people.
I know it has to be really annoying for other people, but not everyone is same.

yeah...i'm like him too even when it concerns relationships i would think just like him so i get why he's scared but he really should stop torturing takano and tell him he loves him
if someone loved like takano loves ritsu i wouldn't wait a secound even if 'im scared

maybe when he taught that his sempai didn't love him that completly wrecked his self-esteem
no now that i think about it he probably didn't have any either at that time so maybe the incident with takano just finished him off

I don't think he had much self-esteem to begin with either ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Believe me, it doesn't matter whether you're a teen or 26 if you have been betrayed (whether you believe you were or actually were) it keeps haunting you, even if you have people who say: "i love you" or "you're a good friend", somewhere in your mind you just can't help but to think: "what if they don't like me" or "they just get close to hurt me". I thought like that for a long time ( i was bullied when i was in primary school and lost everybit of self confidence i had and it just stuck that way, you know) now i have my bff and with her i can be myself and trust my life with her (figure of speech), but with others i keep thinking that they will hurt me somehow even if they tell me they like me (romantic, wich has never happend, or friendly). I want to trust them, but i can't help it. just like Onodera. What he needs is a big push in the back :)

Oh, this applies to people outside of my family with me, i trust my family. :)

not only at work, but in his personal relationships as well. at the moment is the character I like the least. he's so annoying. his behaviour looks like a 14 yo. he already knows that his own lame self esteem caused the whole mess between Takano. his low self esteem caused him to misunderstood Takano and hurt himself and Takano. he sleeps with Takano, then keep bitching about Takano and behaving like a freaking 14 yo kid.

wow i should really read what i'm writing before posting it! but i'm always in a hurry and too lazy so even if i see that i made huge spelling mistakes i don't correct them!

people don't be so hard on onodera!! i love him even with all his issues!! if it weren't for him and his(i have to admit) his stupid behavior the story wouldn't have existed and wouldn't be nearly as good as it is right now! it pains me to see takano suffer but i also enjoy it very much it's very entertaining! and i justfind it hilarious that at the end of each chapter he insults him and keep thinking "are you serious?! are you serious?! are you serious?!" or "are you an idiot?! are you an idiot.?!..

i agree i always think about all these stuff and all but even if i'm really insecure i can't show it! i think he should learn how to bluff! isn't he ashamed that everyone knows that he's insecure and has low self esteem?
i know feelings don't have anything to do with age but the way he acts and doesn't try to hide it, for me that's immature!
i really have no self esteem but i can't let people know that i don't know why but i just can't so i bluff and even try to look overly confident!

i really can't imagine myself trusting someone completely someday... i don't even trust my sister and cousins who were like brothers to me...
this why i like this manga! i love stories where the characters have trust and confidence issues
