Looks like you got it right !
Love is a personal quality, a way of being.
The very presence of this quality in a person also has to start with love for self.
Good going !

You asked a very good question. This is the base of love. First love yourself then love others. Otherwise we will not be able to know about it.

That is calling looking for happiness in the eyes of other. You will never be truly satisfy with your life. What about trying to grow diamond under your feet. Find what really satisfy you in your own life, you biggest achievement and more to reach more, start loving yourself and you will understand what it is like loved and to be loved....

I don't believe you can love anyone else if you don't love yourself. You are either hateful, bitter and self absorbed or so busy trying to win the love of others that you never face up to facts...

You can't love someone, if you don't love yourself. You should always love yourself & care for yourself, b/c if you don't you can't effectively love someone & be good for them. And if you don't love yourself you set yourself up to be abused or mistreated.

you can love some one, the one who makes you love yourself, by her love makes you feel important and u end up loving her/him more than yourself. but wen u love someone you love yourself too.

Decide what changes you have to make in your life, in order to love yourself.

I think you tend to love other people more than you love yourself. Not all people are happy with who they are, therefore not always going to love themselves

we all love ourselves. We feed our bellies, we wash our faces, we brush our teeth. When we need a vacation, we take one. When we need a friend we call one. That's loving yourself.
The question may be: does anyone else besides my mommy appreciate this?

hmmm...............v.difficult indeed to love someone when u don't love u'rself .whether u like some or hate someone is a reflection of what u feel about u'rself.start liking u'rself,u will like the entire world.u may not be liking people coz of certain characteristics or behavior of theirs................but remember to err is human,nobody is perfect.
