who do I love?

someone ever told me this - "you must love yourself before you can love someone.." bcuz if you dont love urself more, u might end up getting hurt.. thus for a period of time, i tried finding ways to love myself more, and i failed badly.. i stil ended up loving someone more than myself.. but i oso realised that while i am loving someone, i am loving myself at the same time, cuz i am receiving love too..

same old words.. there are so many tings i wana update, yet too little time to do so, and i reli get the chance to update, i forgot wat i wana write.. hehe.. but recently, got a sudden feel of insecurity.. and it doesnt come from him.. jus duno how to describe it properly.. mayb too attached to him liao..

Sweetie,

Are you really loving yourself?

Self - love is internal and doesn't rely on other external factors to make you feel loved.

I could not emphasize on this point more.

Learn to love yourself so that you can learn to love others. Loving others doesn't mean emotional reliance on others.

This is what I meant when I said that you should learn to love yourself before you love others.

I saw your comments on my tag board.

I understand what you meant by through loving someone, you will learn to love yourself and build up your faith and confidence in oneself.

There is nothing wrong with that.

But is all those faith, confidence and self - love really there?

Is the self love and faith eventually internalized in you even if one day, the initial source of faith and self - love is not there anymore, you will still retain that self love and faith.

This is really the question that you need to ask yourself.

Without the current source of motivation to love yourself, are you still able to continue and love yourself?

What I mean also by loving yourself 1st is without sufficient self love, you will tend to show emotional and mental dependency on that particular person which will lead to more stress when bilateral conflicts starts showing up in the future.

These kind of emotional stress can be avoided and it will help to improve the health of the relationship in the long run.

These are my personal opinion but I may be wrong for I am just a human.

All the best my friend.

All the best.
