Finding A Love of My Own

For yeas Ive suffered from low self esteem because I was told that the idea of someone loving me was far beyond my reach and the sad part was I believed the nay sayers, especially when I was constantly told that two men loving one another was not only wrong but out of the ordinary. So for years, Ive been searching for something that I had all along. Yes I dont have a Lover in my own life, yet I do have people who will go to the end of the Earth for me because thats how much they love me. I've been burned by Intimate Love quite a few times and it almost turned me bitter and cold but because of my optimistic views and a hearth that cannot be destroyed so easily I refused to give up on finding the kind of love from a man that I really want. But for now, the most important and challenging relationship im working on is the one with myself and so far Im loving it. I have say so of whose in my life and whose not and for the first time in my own existence it feels good to not having to be so consumed with finding someone else to love me when I was able to do it for myself all along. A guy will be lucky to even come into my life and settle in. So I am content.

Dear AntronReshaud, I am so happy to hear that you have kept your optimistic outlook and you are able to focus on yourself despite all those horrible things said and done to you. No one has the right to declare that love is out of reach for anyone! Be true to yourself! It has been my experience that people who stop obseessing over finding someone to love them and begin loving themselves are the ones who are lucky to run into the person who will love them. I hope your content turns into happiness in the future and good luck to you.
