As far as I can tell it won't happen again. I can't live the nest 50 years of my life on false hope.

I don't know about that. I don't believe at all in "positive mantras" but I believe that you can do things to give yourself a higher opinion of yourself. If you volunteered at a homeless shelter or visited with the elderly or got involved in animal rescue... something that helps make the world a better pllace...would those acts increase your self esteem and make you feel more worthwhile and lovable?
