Do you love yourself?

y/n?

n

yes

why shouldn't i?

Mainly yes. But I often feel really let down by myself.

no

not at all.

yes. love for all beings, and sentience in general begins with self-love, not love yourself over others, love yourself as a reflection of the other.

that's what happens when you don't think.

*Zen*

no - (though i am working on a change - someone asked me this question point blank last night which fostered an interesting discussion about how many people actually love themselves, which is partly what prompted this thread fyi).

i like wanking, does that count?

with a passion

i couldn't imagine not being me, my passions, desires and my viewpoint of life. taking it all into consideration, despite whatever blatant flaws I have that may or may not require changing, it becomes an easy decision.

how could i not love myself when i'm the reason i can see you?

you know i wanted to make a thread about this, alot of times people will say "you can't love someone if you don't love yourself" and i find it true. but i find myself falling in and out of love with myself, if someone shows love then i love the fact that i am loved, but that wares off and the inevitable self loathe soon seeps in, now i i don't hate myself or anyone else for that matter. i want to make a change and i would love to love myself, but sometimes i feel like i am unlovable, granted i have friends and family that love me, but it's never "TV" love or maybe i expect to much?

but it got me thinking the other day one lonely night, is there anyone that yearns to hug me?

if not i wanna change that. i come from a family that doesn't really show any love, hugs and kisses feel like a lie and guilty. telling someone that you love them feels embarrassing or ashamed to do so.

i don't like that . . . not one bit, i often seek love but like they say, you can't love anyone nless you love yourself.

how do i love myself without feeling cheap?

i want to change.
