If you don’t love yourself then you will be unable to love anyone else! It starts with you, remember that. You love a person not for what they pretend to be. Narcissists only adopt the persona that best attracts their prey, theirs is always a false self. The person you thought you knew? Doesn’t exist. True love is based on the true self of another person. True mind, true heart, true SOUL. That is “What bears it out even to the edge of doom.”
