Many times i feel i don't love anybody at all. When ever i have to take any decision i think of the thing from my point of view. The decisions are taken that makes me comfortable, that makes me happy. I value others feelings only because it makes my happy, that may be my ego, that i did that or the credit that others give me, for which i do a particular thing. Thus it is right to say that I only love myself. Do you love only yourself too.

Hi there Pujagupta!
I do love myself. As the song goes, learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all. You will never know what you can share to other people if you don't love yourself. It is really important that you do.
But I have to say that loving ONLY yourself is not a good thing. Love is meant to be shared. Sometimes, you share it even when you don't mean to. You show it even though you don't know that you did.

yes, nanayangel. love is meant to be shared with others. in fact, it is impossible that we never share it with the ones who matter to us. most probably, our friend here is not aware of it. but she has been sharing love with others in some ways all these time.
for you, pujagupta, if you are a spoiled brat/child, you'd better start considering being good and considerate of your love ones before it is too late. grab the opportunity to show how much you love the people who matter to you most. the opportunity is not there forever. you just don't know when will the time be ending.

we take good care of our body because, we love ourselves. we bathe, we eat, we get ourselves looking at its best...all because we love ourselves.
it if only fitting and proper that we love ourselves for how can we love others if we do not love ourselves in the first place. we can only share things that we have by, in and within ourselves.
however, we must share this love with others. if we do not do that, that is selfishness, utter selfishness. i cannot perceive any single person who has only oneself to love and care for. there will always be others with whom we share that love with.
let us take into consideration your parents and siblings. wouldn't you be willing to sacrifice so much for them when they are in need? wouldn't you take care of them when they are sick?
you might not have considered this before to be an act of love, yet, it is how love works.
