Well, some good books and some people in RL and some good films even
or some great forums like this one
have really helped me accepting myself in the past.
I had times when I was really happy and yeah, I did love myself. Sometimes it just seems harder.
I think it's related to nutrition and weather and all sorts of things that influence my moods, including thoughts of course..
I don't think that I really love myself at the time, cause I'm a bit angry with myself about (not) doing some things..
I hope that with time of month this will change
(I have some strong PMS/PMDD sometimes, and the world really seems horrible 'just before' - sorry if this is too much information guys!!)
Just know that if a girl really is 'not interested', she might also just have PMS!! Or too much trouble with herself/her life etc. (Just one of the possibilities, lol!!)
I find it difficult after doing something that I deem 'imperfect' (though I did some really good things otherwise too), or I think I 'should be doing more' etc.. or 'should have a different life' (or my Dad thinks so, and says it loud, sigh!!)
I think I could be quite more positive and upbeat when I lived on my own..
Especially if I did the exercises for 'busting negative thoughts' and such.. and socialized with good friends regularly, or at least had good contact with people, but not too much at a time (then, I crash and burn too.. especially if cookies/sugar is involved, sigh..)
ShyKiwi, I wonder if a social skills/assertiveness or drama/theatre course or something like that could be helpful for you? Maybe it's just tone of voice or body posture or something like that? Or maybe a fashion makeover could help? (For some people, it was all they needed..) Or you just need different people to interact with?
BlackPuma, I wonder if you were ever labelled 'gifted' or such? Or maybe you're just 'different' and need more tolerant people around you? Or such that might share your philosophy etc?
