>Before you love someone else, you need to learn how to love yourself.

Yeah, it's bullshit. People who love themselves are uber-normies that consistently receive social, romantic and sexual validation.
>>29880670
How would you believe what your significant other says about you if you can't accept that you're an alright person? That relationship is bound to crumble.
>>29880697
Don't even bother. This thread is about confirming eachother's neurosis to feed our anger glands so we can justify our isolation, not facts.
Fag.
>>29880697
People who find themselves in relationships don't feel like that, they're very assured of themselves
>>29880761
He tells himself, feeling most intelligent.
This is just americanised pseudo-intellectuslism from watching too many shitty drama shows on tv. Loads of self loathers are in relationships
What does it mean to "love yourself"?
Does it mean to think you're better than other people?
>>29880840
Being the opposite of what r9k is
>>29880795
nah I hate myself anon, i'm aware I'm incapable of getting a gf
Normie advice, most relationships are between two people who hate themselves and enable each other's shit.
>>29880840
Also, can you truly "love yourself" if you don't believe in "self"?

I think it means being honest alongside your own ideals and virtues and acknowledging the flaws and benefits these carry
loving oneself begets narcissism
what one really needs is first to be shown acceptance, care and concern - and to be given a sense of worth; which they can then invest in others
and of course, telling someone you value and accept them is an expression of Love - so before you can love someone else, you need to be loved
sadly most of us on here come from dysfunctional backgrounds where we weren't given a sense of legitimate worth and acceptance; so it's very hard to express care for others, especially when we hardly care for ourselves
so for what it's worth, i accept you just as you are anon - and while that's often unpleasant - i still value you as an 'imago dei' and consider your life a sacred thing that should not be further crushed
and since i represent jesus, if one of his lowly servants can think this way about you, imagine how much worth the infinite one places on you

Being true to yourself and accepting who you are
>>29880850
What? but ive been loving myself for the past 12 hours masturbating.

>tfw so isolated and depressed I don't even know who I am any more
it's like my personality has evaporated
>>29880840
>>29880840
accept what you are, respect yourself and your body, realize what you're virtues and flaws are, work on it.
Believing you're superior to everyone else is narcissism
>tfw no qt relationship where you both hate yourself but make up for it by loving each other
>>29882476
fuck that's what I want too anon
i honestly think if i had a gf i'd be so motivated to do things. right now, i see no point in life
It's hard to love myself if I see that everybody else just ignores me and considers me romantically worthless.
