the amount of love you have for yourself is going to inevitably be your standard for others. if you love yourself 30%, and someone loves you 40%, you& #39;re going to think they& #39;re great and not notice the pain they& #39;ve inflicted until it& #39;s too late. because 40% is still too little.

so, if you could just love yourself entirely, with all your imperfections and flaws, you& #39;d be able to filter and separate those that treat you like you deserve to be treated and those that don& #39;t.

so, please, love yourself before you let anyone else love you. love yourself completely and entirely. because just because someone treats you better than you treat yourself doesn& #39;t mean they treat you right. :(
