Unlovable

We all feel unlovable at times, if not constantly. In my opinion I think it’s a natural feeling for people who have suffered abuse in any way.

Abuse leaves us with so many negative feelings about ourselves. The “ not good enough” is one of them. The “ I must be such a low trash”. So so many negative feelings that works on our self esteem.

When people tell us that we are loveable it is very hard to accept that this might be true. How can it be true when somewhere in our life we were so unlovable that some people had to teach us lessons by physically, mentally, sexually and emotionally hurting us.

For some of us who has suffered abuse we can come, with hard work, to a point where we will accept that yes we are loveable. But for many, myself included, we are not there yet, surely not because we don’t want too but because the “unlovable feeling” is so strong.

For some people, who receive a compliment, they will say “ Thank you”.

For the ones who feels unlovable, they will say “What?! What do you mean?!”

Maybe one day we will feel loveable. Do you think so?
