I just wanna say
Maybe we should do away with the whole “if you don’t love yourself you can’t love someone else” idea.

Why is that?

@SW-User I see myself in a different way than I see other people. My ability to love my friends is different than my ability to love myself. Many people that struggle with mental illness have this problem. I struggle with depression and anxiety and sometimes its hard to find this part of me thats okay with myself. I will love my friends forever. I have no doubt. And that idea always made me feel as if I should keep myself from a relationship because I still have internal problems. But its not true. I can be in a relationship and love my bf or gf and still work on learning to love myself (:
