Confident but then i feel inferior

I just don't know what it is. When it comes to competition I usually come out ahead,I'm not tooting my horn just stating the truth. I have everything I have ever wanted, and yet I still never feel good enough. Part of me is so confident, but then there's another side that thinks how on earth I could ever be so lucky to have the man of my dreams. I am young, good looking, down to earth, and strong willed, but at the same time I almost feel like my boyfriend could do better and that I don't deserve him. I feel like my family deserves a better sister, aunt, and etc. I don't get it. Maybe a few words of wisdom to help me understand this please. I get in my own way and just want to breathe and be the happy and confident side. I don't like the feelings associated with being inferior.

    The triad of perfectionism, anxiety and low self-worth is not uncommon.
    Were you an overachiever? Have you ever been under excessive expectations of responsibility? Have you been bullied, criticized or neglected as a child?

    Does this resonate at all?

    Should go without saying, but consider therapy.
