How can you live and get along with others when you can't live with yourself? You are numero uno when it comes to living happily and your ability to love.

Our existence need not be proved. Hence we are existing in the world. When we want to serve others we should be there. We should be capable of doing so. The capability will come when we are Physically and Mentally fit. Otherwise nothing is going to happen. Hence basically or fundamentally we should love ourself first to impart love to others. Sacrifice is a useless word for a practical person. We came here to know ourselves (our capabilities and capacities as well as stage where we are) and then to serve others but not help others. Nobody is so innocent to get help. We have to serve for which we should exist or live. To love ourselves is the basic need for us.

Love is a grt Inner Experience, if we love ourselves (not too much though) and feel good and positive we feel the same for others I strongly believe this and have experience this too, its the same as when u r in love everything’s so beautiful, u can exp magic everywhere and find leaves greener and sea fuller :)

one should love himself first bcoz until u dont love urself u cant come to know abt the feelings of ur heart and u cant express it and if one loves himself it means that he is like a saint and he can love anyone in this bful world

In the Bible is written love the other like Yourself.
Therefore first of all You should love (=accept) Yourself as You are.

Yes, exact question, if human beings can love themselves
They can love others, because they know the feeling of love and care,
If they are really love themselves they can love others and can understand the
Feelings.

If you don't love yourself you can't love someone else; human contact will be reduced to finding ways to fill the lack of love for oneself (I'd substitute 'acceptance' for 'love'.)

We should love ourselves first because if we don't, then how do we expect others to like us and love us? Such us potential friends and significant others. Besides in life you need to be confident in yourself and get yourself through things.

every body says think of the other person, be considerate bla bla bla.... it is natural for human beings to love themselves first. it is not something you should or shouldn't do....It is selfishness that is natural. how not to love oneself seems more of a daunting question to answer. thinking about ur self is easy.... every body always does that........

To appreciate others you need to appreciate yourself first. Love starts from within not without.
