Why unrequited love makes us feel so bad about ourselves?

Focusing on oneself too long creates these issues. Place your love upon others in service or whatever. Go to old person home, seek God, pick-up trash on the side of the road etc. Stop focusing on yourself solely. You are not happy now nor will you ever be happy as Man is incapable of it.

Because rejection sucks lol it can be a blow to your ego and self esteem. It’s also hurtful if you really liked the person bc you wanted to try a relationship with them and now you can’t. But my logic is that everything happens for a reason. I think of the guy I’m with now, how much better he is than anyone I’ve dated or even liked, and how I wouldn’t have this relationship if those other situations worked out, even the ones I felt had so much potential. Perspective is everything!

When you are really loved. You feel loved and accepted for who you are. Bur also pushed to be better and better.
