love yourself first before you get in to a relationship

Hello, pinks17. I reckon that what you just said is true. A love relationship is not depending on the other person. You must love the person but still be able to live your own life. You must first learn how to love yourself and give your own value, understanding that you can live alone if needed. Then you can go for a relationship, in which you will share experiences and show affection. But if it ends, you must be strong enough to admit that you can keep your life alone. You must not rely on the loved one too much, because only then you will be able to keep walking when the love is gone. Who told you to love yourself first was being a wise person, no doubt about it. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

Yes this is all true, I think it is a case that you should not enter into a relationship expecting it to make your life, you yourself should have your own happy life and and bring someone into that life to share with but be happy for yourself, independently....

There are relationships which are based on mutual need. This is not really a bad thing, nature allows for different combinations to prosper. I prefer to be independent and to have my wife also independent. I don't like someone to be needy. Cheers!!

Yeah that's quite true. You must love yourself first before anything else. If you don't understand yourself and you don't even care of you are, then there's a possibility that something is missing inside you. It will reflect on the way you carry yourself. And people will realized that.

How can that be?! How when loving is about being selfless? It's like a love of a mother to her child, she didn't mind about herself because she cares more for her child, that's love. In a romantic relationship, love is not all about loving yourself first. Sometimes just by loving someone, he/she brings out the best in you. You begin to dress well, you take care of your body, you watch your behavior, etc. All these because he/she is simply there.

I always love myself and have got confidence in myself even when I was dumped.Being dumped doesnt mean that I am not good enough.It might just be because we are not right for each other.Now I am single and love myself more than ever.Still young..pretty..educated..have a good job with good pay..lots of friends and hobbies..I am already happy by myself.A relationship would just make me even happier.

yes it's true that you have to love yourself first before loving someone. like in my case before i met my husband, everytime i got into a relationship i always forget about myself i tend to give my all but still the relationship didn't worked out. until i realized that it's not good to give everything you still have to keep something for yourself because the more i give the more i get hurt. so i decided to give myself a break, and give myself time to love myself and that's the time i met my husband who taught me to love and appreciate myself more.
