I've had that experience. But eventually, for me, it seeps in. Very eventually for me. Infinitesimally slow seeping.

You know, if you were to meet yourself I bet you'd like yourself way better than you think. I think it's not uncommon to feel like if people really knew us, they wouldn't like us. I know I feel that way sometimes. But we feel that way about ourselves, not about others. You'd give yourself the same benefit of the doubt you give others.
