Is loving yourself the only enough to get people to even like you?

Phillip S.: Is loving yourself the only enough to get people to even like you?
Aren’t there people you can’t stand and for the littlest things, like stuttering? With people in America being so critical loving yourself isn’t enough; people will hate you anyway. I suppose looks don’t really matter either? How naive can you be? How about size doesn’t matter? Just kidding. It’s just that these statements seem like crap to me. I have found that people who are funny, attractive and smart rule the world; just loving yourself isn’t enough. I found this out the hard way. What’s your opinion?

Being attractive helps. Being smart is a positive hindrance to being popular and successful.

Loving yourself doesn’t achieve anything. If you overdo it, it becomes a huge negative, and even if you don’t, it doesn’t help one bit.

When you love yourself you don’t give a sh!t what others think. That’s the secret behind the idea. Some people will love you some wont, that will never change. But loving yourself makes it easier for those that love you to love you, and makes the people that hate you not count so much because of your positive self image. “Looks” are in the eye of the beholder. Sure there are classic good looks, but in the grand scheme “looks” count for nothing unless you want to be a model or an actor. Seen a sexy politician lately? Didn’t think so. Size doesn’t matter to all women, in fact some women are hurt if the penis is too big.

Your generalizing, and have been jaded by false values on the television.

if you dont love yourself it makes it hard to be like, full grown or mature and understand for a person that you love.. it makes you kind of limited and capable of giving conditional love sometimes.. it maybe makes u need a person for the wrong reasons sometimes. if you dont love yourself youre probably looking for attention or wrong reasons to date or be friends with somebody.
like low self esteem doesnt mean that you dont deserve love, it means you think youre not worthy and that you dont deserve love. that can make you cause problems or sabotage relationships while trying to get people close to you or never leave you.
loving yourself is just like, the basic groundwork for sharing yourself like how love is supposed to be patient and kind like in that Corinthians quote about love..
also, if you tend to love yourself then you can attract a lot of people because youll give off a sense of stability and theyll wanna know you bc youre like healthy pack member or leader in the group.. being overconfident can backfire bc sometimes overconfidence is just like disguised insecurity, its like agressive.

Well loving your self first is really the most appropriate and right thing to do before other people will surely love you back as well. And it should attached with the way you deal life everyday, on your points and views that others will surely know and adore. The positivity that you could ponder or share to those that surrounded you will surely notice that and will see how beautiful you were inside and that will reflect to your physical thing.
