It’s not that self-love is wrong. In fact, genuine love requires you to first love yourself. The problem is that too many of us don’t self-love using ourselves, and we instead use other human beings to achieve it.
The problem is that we’ve made “love” into a game of escapism, and measure potential partners by how they fit into that fantasy. That’s not love.
The more you learn who you really are, the harder it is to crave external love. Instead of seeking it, you simply give it, realizing that the only way you could be giving love, is if you already had it.
