Self-love
|
Self-love Hello Friends , What the heck is self-love ? What does it mean to practice self-compassion ? What’s the deal with the idea that no one will love you until you love yourself ? I take care of myself and I acknowledge that I don’t deserve to be mistreated , but it happens . People suggest that the solution is more self-love , where’s the line between self-love an narcissism ? Is self-love even<b> realistic </font></b>? I am incapable of self-love if I’m willing to admit that I’m not that great and neither is anybody else ? And if I find some magic formula for feeling and practicing self-love will it translate into others loving me more fully as well ? I love you guys like I love myself – in a complicated way . Putting first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first. |

I wonder if anyone saw this title and thought it was anything other that masturbation . I hate that euphemism because you can claim there's a difference between having sex and making love if you wish , and masturbation is definitely the former . I also wonder how many posts there have been in the history of FriendFinder-x that were about masturbation . I further wondering how many of them were anything other than "Hey you guys like to masturbate ?" and/or a reprinted article about how masturbation is "good" for you . Putting clients first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put clients (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first.

I have to admit, that masturbation did cross mind when I saw the subject. But the author usually puts a different stroke on things. What can I say I was hooked and reeled in.

Love is empathy and support. Hard to love oneself if you do not understand yourself.

I think the idea that no one will love you unless you love yourself is at best an attempt to get people to feel better about themselves. No one will love you if you don't love yourself? Come on, that's just silly. That said, I think knowing or learning about yourself, finding your flaws and if possible working to correct them, is healthy. Certainly self loathing isn't healthy, so working to understand why you're unhappy with something about yourself and correcting it, is a good thing. I do believe that a person that is happy with who they are, can have a easier time building a relationship with another. We all have flaws, fixing the ones we can and accepting the ones we can't is always a good practice. In my opinion.

I particularly have trouble with the body image movement's exhortations to love your body. I can have a grudging respect for my body and the things that it does for me (in a utilitarian kind of way) - but love it? Not gonna happen. Anyway...back to the "self".... I think you can have a realistic, grounded, appreciation for your own strengths and abilities - and if that is the same thing as "self-love" then I guess it's possible. It would lead to projecting a certain amount of self confidence which is usually attractive to other people. But I agree that it's a slippery slope that could easily go over the border into narcissism. Just look at 45 - "I am a very stable genius" - that statement doesn't make him attractive or lovable.

I would easily equate self-love with narcissism. I'm gonna stick with self-like. Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

most of it is BS. but when you see someone who really loathes themselves (e.g. body dysmorphia) you can see the impact of not enough. ego/id.....it's kind of a crap shoot isn't it? I'm not given to people who are so overly confident that they shove themselves down my throat or take up all the air in the room. but people who know who they are and are and are comfortable with it...yeah, that works for me. You cannot conceive the many without the one.
