How do you feel good about yourself if you've never been loved?
-
Just like how babies will die if they're not exposed to human touch, so do i feel like I'm dying inside since my whole entire life I've just never been loved. Never had good friends or family, never even been on a date. I don't know what it's like to have someone tell me they love me. Seeing as humans are social creatures and have a deep instinctual need to feel loved or part of a group, how can someone who is all alone and never known love feel good about themselves? How can I learn to love myself if I've never been loved and don't know what love is? I know I can't define my self worth by how loved I am, but after a certain point, not having any love at all or even any memory of it makes feeling any kind of good impossible.

Answer:
I love you. I am serious. I may be a stranger but I know that deep down inside you are my brother or sister and whether you believe in God or not, he loves you. We are all part of God's family and that is why we feel a need to be loved. There most likely are people in this world that love you but they do not know how to show it or you are just not able to see the love they have. There is a lot you can do. That feeling of love is so important and we need to find a way for you to know its there..because I can promise it is. You may need to talk to a counselor who can help you find the love that is out there. You need friends and family, and you may not find it where you think. Go give service. The more you serve others, the happier you will be. You must love others to feel loved. Whether its randomly visiting retirement homes, helping at a soup kitchen, or helping any stranger in need. You will grow to love these strangers and find family in them. You will love the people you serve and they will love you to.

God loves you. Love is all around you. Look at the sunset and tell me you don't feel God's love. Giving is much better than receiving. If you have an emptiness, fill it with volunteer work. You will quickly see how much you are appreciated by everyone you meet.
