I love everything about you that you hate. Is that a good start to a relationship?

I don't think so. Because the rest of the time you'll be stuck trying to convince them that they're worthy and trying to validate them. When they alone should feel worthy and validate themselves. Codependency is draining. Each person is responsible for their own happiness and it shouldn't be a job put on anyone else. Relationships work better when there's already a good amount of self awareness and self acceptance established. That way when together you'll be able to spend more time loving and appreciating each other rather than being responsible for each other, if that makes sense. It really pays to take your time and not rush into things and make sure you have a solid relationship with yourself first. It'll make everything else make more sense. Everything else in your life will improve too.
