People who love themselves lift others up. People who hate themselves tear others down. True or false?

[Kingofkings1992]

True

False

[Purpleronnie]

That quote / statement is over simplified , generally ambiguous and basically incorrect. At the very least it needs explained or the syntax corrected.


A person who is defined as “loving themselves” could be meant as being conceited. Being such is not considered positively and so likely not lifting anyone up , quite the opposite. A person defined as hating themselves could mentally be inwardly suffering from trauma or self esteem issues , low mood , but act outwardly as confident or even just calm level which may even attract people.

[Levin]

Perhaps. Although I think it depends on how self-aware that person is. You can have bouts of self-loathing and hate yourself so much that you just think you're crap and you're aware that it's just eminating from inward.

I support others because I don't want them to feel shitty. I consider it important to lift each other up instead of tearing each other down.
We already got tons of problems to deal with, the least we can do is make life a bit more bearable for others. At least, that is what I think.

[Apple1996]

Nah i learned this from having kids like I can feel so depressed and hate things about myself but still be there to support and lift them up

[AI Opinion]

Absolutely true, love! When you're comfortable in your own skin and practicing self-love, you've got a whole lot of love and support to share. It's like having an endless supply of good vibes. 😎 On the other hand, when self-doubt creeps in, that negativity can spill over onto others. The world needs more uplifting energy, don't you think? Spread love, not shade! 🌟

loveing others starts with loveing yourself i find it really hard to love and trust others if i dont feel good about myself because if your insecure about lets say your hair your always gonna worry others will judge you for your hair and to me that just says how can i love someone i dont trust or care for them in any way at all really

[jshm2]

Not so simple, buttercup.

You'd be surprised how many psychologists and doctors commit suicide each year. These are people who's very job is to help others.

Life is rarely as simple as a quote.

[Kingofkings1992]

It’s a generalization. I understand nothing is that simple, princess

[PeachyPie93]

Not always.. I have always hated myself but I still lift up my friends and people I like.. but I do kind of like to tear down people I don't like.. but only if they are mean to me since I got bored of doing it to randoms..

[AnonAndrew]

@PeachyPie93 You used to tear down randoms? What, just for fun?

[PeachyPie93]

@AnonAndrew Yeah it used to be funny..

[Tomisworthless]

I would be her victim im pathetically amusing to abuse

[PeachyPie93]

@Tomisworthless It's only online bullying it's never in real life, unless someone says something to my face.. It's not even bullying its just being rude to everyone lol. I only bully sluts and people who are generally mean to others. Usually just people who I think need to be taken down a peg. Like glowupgirly5 she is rude to all girls and has multiple accounts I got her to take down two cuz I dissed her hard she couldn't save face so she/he deleted them and made her new account.. I can't stand that dumb fuck and I know its her every time she makes another fake account.

[Tomisworthless]

You wouldn't bully a ugly gay guy? Are you even a female?

[PeachyPie93]

@Tomisworthless Why would I bully you? I know life is already hard so why would I make it worse? No fun it that..

[Tomisworthless]

Life experience says otherwise. I've had hotter girls than you treat me like dirt

[PeachyPie93]

@Tomisworthless That's nice.. I don't bully people unless it makes me laugh or I find it fun.

[Tomisworthless]

ok we agree 💅

[Sevenpointfive]

it really depends on the person i meet. if i like them i'll build them up. if neutral i stay neutral. but if i don't like you because you gave me a good reason to not like you, then i feel sorry for them.

[AnonAndrew]

Human nature isn't really that simple. People who love themselves can really crush other people, and people who hate themselves can provide incredible support to others.

[Oncewildtwiceburned]

Not all of the time, there are narcissists that outwardly seem to only love themselves and constantly do things for themselves, but deep inside they afraid they aren’t good enough or are deeply injured with very little self-esteem.

[White_Widow]

I don't think love has much to do with it.

Its better to say

[princeofromance]

This not true in the slightest. People who believe a statement like this know nothing about a person's inner thoughts. A person who hates themself is still able to love others and not tear them down.

[Crazzyyworld]

Sometimes people tell me to love myself. But I doubt that they love themselves either. They seem to enjoy attention from some people and without that attention they don’t love themselves, they actually hate themselves.

[Crazzyyworld]

Self love is real care about him herself. He she doesn’t poison self and maintain body well so it doesn’t die easily.

[Tomisworthless]

False, plenty of happy, beautiful, successful people in relationships have tore me apart for their own amusement doesn't mean they hate themselves just hate me

[Shy_Steve]

False.

I have met numerous People who have loved themselves and they have never lifted me up.

People who hate themselves are a lot more sympathetic to me.

[Anonymous]

The biggest self haters lift others as opposed to themselves and the biggest self lovers are often narcissistic and hate on others

[GlowUpGirly5]

I am not obligated to help lift someone up. I have me to take care of

[Kathryn2003]

Sometimes. But their also those who bring others down to make themselves feel better.

[Anonymous]

Generally true in most cases.

[Jay-_-]

Nope not always the case.

[Kelly6]

Kind of true.
