My vote goes to Love and Appreciate Yourself and/or extreme self esteem. I'm very approval seeking myself and I have abandonment issues to the point where I'll put distance between people and myself when I realize their getting too close for my own comfort or to not give them the chance to reject me.
I was basically taught by my family that I'm only as valuable as the skills I have, proficiency in school, and the job I will get. This is why I always had this mentality that since I dont have those things somehow I'm less of a person. I know your friend probably isnt like that but he probably struggles with self worth because it wasnt properly ingrained at a young age.
