Love Yourself First

Sometimes, people forgot themselves once they've been in a break-up. But the first rule in life is to love yourself first. Well, how can you love somebody if you can't give love to yourself? A break-up can be happened anytime. So once you are in that situation, always keep in your mind that your next step is to heal yourself as you love yourself. Don't wait for anyone to lift you up and wait for some appreciations. The only person who can bring back life and confidence is you. Not other people.

Yes many people these days neglect themselves and become bitter when it comes to themselves. Most the time, we break up with a person because he/she is not worth staying in a relationship with. That's life, we lose some and we gain some. Break ups makes us strong and also mature when it comes to relationships.

Moreover, those people who stay bitter never learn the lesson and do the same mistakes. So when they are going to find someone new, they just want to have somebody because they don't want to be alone or their partners are just good for their egos. The result, they don't really love their partners...

Yes the more you stay bitter, the more life will be complicated. We all go through loads of troubles when it comes to relationships, but we must always move on no matter what.

I always take note of this "Love Yourself First". But it is really hard, once you love a person, you can't really control yourself to just divide the love to give, you can never really tell that you are already fallen for that person and even not noticing that your giving your all already. Sad reality.

falling in love with other opposite gender or let's say to other person is normal. One of the things to love yourself is to give an answer about your feeling and let it express it to the one you love. regardless what would be the result, you give yourself a chance to love and be strong...

I totally agree with you 100%. NO one can ever help yourself but yourself. And we should learn to not just love ourselves but to prioritize what is best for us.

You are right Jenny. Do something and make a decision that would be good for yourself, and if you want to change, change for the sake of improving.

Hi, You are right. We should learn to love ourselves. when there is a break up then you think that love is not suitable for you. There is someone who is waiting for you. You should not blame yourself. We should have trust on ourselves. then only we can be successful in our life.

You are right. Never blame yourself for something that you don't deserve. Instead of blaming, consider this painful experience as a lesson. In that way, you can improve yourself. Don't stay bitter! Have a life... =)
