I don't believe that whole "if you don't love yourself you can't love others." Because I downright despise myself to my very core, but I love others and I don't expect them to be what they can't be. I may get annoyed or frustrated or mad, but it doesn't take away my love. I'm also extremely forgiving of others but not of myself. So I don't know if that's exactly the issue or not with others. Maybe. I may be some type of genetic mutation or something.
