is it possible to love someone who doesn't love them self?


Question Posted Monday April 21 2008, 9:57 pm

is it possible to love someone who doesn't love them self? i have anorexia nervosa and though my boyfriend has told me he loves me almost every day for a year, i am not so sure that he can if i have such a hard time tolerating myself. i am afraid that he does not love me any longer.

i have bulimia, and my boyfriend claims to love me. in fact.. i believe that when someone else loves you, it actually helps you love yourself more. it's kind of a wakeup call to realize that there's SOMEONE out there who can appreciate you..even if you can't appreciate yourself. i dont know. that's how i feel..

You know what, yes I think so, but it is probably one of the hardest ways to love someone. If you don't love yourself then it is really hard for you to accept the fact that someone else could possibly care about you, when you see no reason for such a fuss. This makes it 10 times harder for them to love you because it is really really frustrating, but if he really loves you as much as it seems like he does and he wants to stay with you then it will work. But first you really really need to go talk to someone and learn how to love yourself, because if you never learn how to love yourself then you will never really know how to love another individual. Do it for yourself and your boyfriend, because you all could make it. I hope everything works out.

Hope I Helped.

I hope this helps.

A lot of guys pay attention to that stuff, an some of them dont. You really need to be yourself, and love who you are. If your not proud of who you are, others might reflect and catch on. You dont want everyone to know you dont like yourself because they will learn to not like you as well. Never be in a sour mood becuase of something happening in your life. Dont let it show... it will only bring you down more. Besides, if he was a REAL boyfriend, he'd tell you everyday your perfectly imperfect. He would encourage your confidence and brighten your attitude torward both him and yourself.

Please, take my advice, and dont hate yourself.
Remember...
always be yourself no matter what. Dont change for anything, or anyone, anyday.

PS: if he already hasent said something He might not care about it that much... and that can come both good and bad ways.

HOPE I COULD BE MUCH HELP!
good luck!
God bless you!! :]
