One of my best friends told me yesterday that if you like someone and you know s/he will never like you back it’s a sign that you haven’t accepted yourself, because otherwise you would realize that you should be with someone who loves you and appreciates you. Thoughts?

  3. fortheloveofcheese answered: i’ve experienced rejection myself. and when that happens, the only thing you have to do is back off.
  4. nothinghurtstoomuch answered: give into what you feel, tell that person you like them, i recentlly learned that telling my bestfriend i loved him was the best thing for me
  5. rebostco answered: If you accept yourself and you follow your gut usually that leads to a happy relationship. It’s more about keeping the afloat after that.
  6. thesarcasmsociety answered: Only if you’re really that depressing.
  7. aiviet answered: i believe that the heart wants what the heart wants, even temporarily.
  8. bratisrayjean answered: yea. That is so true. You should love yourself as what you really are. :D
  9. koveredinrain answered: We can’t help who we like/love. That is the truth.

  18. midnightlights answered: Do not agree with this in the slightest. Maybe you just feel that the other person is so overwhelmingly wonderful that it’s worth hoping.
  19. rawwrmeansily answered: this is exactly where I’m atright now..uncertainty. :(
  20. quietworldsandwhisperedwords answered: I think that is a really wise comment, makes lots of sense.
  21. amandaamargaret answered: It’s not relevant. Accepting yourself doesn’t really have anything to do with who you fall for. Sometimes it’s entirely out of our control
  22. because-wewantto answered: It can’t be that simple, because that makes everyone who doesn’t like you as someone less. Sometimes we don’t like people who love us.
  23. coloursplashedsoul answered: Agreed
  24. thespacebtwn answered: Hmm I don’t think that has much correlation. You can be the most self-accepting individual but still the whole world will never love you back
  25. restlesscourage answered: It’s a nice sentiment, but I think we can’t help who we like. Some things in other people are attractive, regardless of their feelings.
  26. aspiringdietitian answered: You don’t need to accept yourself to realize another person’s feelings towards you. This isn’t promising information.
  27. hmaine answered: Definitely agree. Been there, and I eventually realized that same thing.

  29. iamincongruity answered: sometimes, i think a person just can’t help it. some people are amazingly likable and it’s not your fault if you like them, love them even…
  30. omni-absent answered: It’s not about accepting yourself, It’s about Having the courage to tell them. If you don’t it’s just simply a cop out.
  31. roiserrano answered: So true.
  32. missashleyrose answered: We only let ourselves acknowledge the love we think we deserve,be it wrong, right, reciprocated, or not.
