There’s an old saying, treat others as you would like to be treated. What does this mean for those who suffer from the lack of self-love?
To love yourself means to truly accept yourself for who you are, as you are, coming to terms with those aspects of yourself that you cannot change. You respect your beliefs and your body, understanding you and not trying to be someone else. Your esteem is high; you have self-respect, and a positive self-image. This love is definitely not to be confused with self-adoration or narcissism. It does not mean being arrogant, conceited or thinking that you are better than anyone else. It means having a healthy outlook of yourself, knowing that you are a worthy human being. You begin loving yourself when you stop rejecting yourself.
