The most important relationship that you have is with "YOU"
How you be in you, day in day out. Then care for you, put you first, it is not selfish to place you first, why then you won't drain you out. The opinions of others, you have no control over, people will say what they say, let it slip off you. If you mull over in your mind, over and over what they say, then you are perpetual, you keep the angst going on in your mind.
True love begins with self love, love begins in you, no one can give it to you, but you. Your job in life is to love you.
Be you, be your own best friend. ..
