Generally positve comments mean the most coming from people we look up to, respect and admire.
Having NO-ONE in my life who fits that role means on the rare occasion I receive some sort of positve feedback my usual reaction is "yeah right, what the fook would you know arsehole!"

well if you notice I did frame my thoughts on this based around friends, loved ones and people important to us. An acquaintence will rarely have enough rapport with us to have any kind of an impact and anyone we dont' have enough respect for their opinions, it's kind of obvious we'll all probably brush it off for the most part.
But in essence you are right. if you don't think much of yourself it's hard to break free from that line of thinking. That's the whole point. No one hates themselves 100% there are always a few things that are at the very least somewhat postiive in our minds. you may have to dig but I'm gonna bet that there is at least a few things. work from that frame of mind and you've got to look for it. You can't passively go through life and expect your behavior, your thinking or anything to just change.
