Loving yourself is important, that is a complete truth.
HOWEVER
That doesn't change the want inside me to love and be loved.
In my very limited experience in having romantic partners, I've never been told "I love you" nor have I said it. My relationships have never reached that point. All of them have ended with essentially the same reasoning.
The person became bored of me.
I am a pleaser to a fault and will do whatever I can to make my person happy because it makes me happy. However, that means they actually have to TELL me what they want or show me in some way. Communication seems to not come easily despite it usually being so before the relationship.
I'm relatively low maintenance and I like to set up healthy boundaries. I like simple things like reading, listening to music, enjoying the stars and so the most common things said to me are that I am boring. I'm not. I enjoy so many things in life, but I mostly enjoy them when I am with someone I care about and they are having fun.
I know who I am, I know what I want and what I want is someone who loves me instead of someone who gets into a committed relationship and decides by themselves that it's not working out without ever really trying.
I am incredibly tired of giving so much of myself to someone who takes it all without ever giving anything back. And then they call me boring. I love myself, and I know my worth, and I am worth so much more than this and SO ARE YOU.
LOVE YOURSELF AND NEVER BE AFRAID TO BE WHO YOU ARE!

only thing i can say is i can relate to this. im a character of simple wants and needs. I love myself but i often find myself being the only one that does and its tiring not to be seen and appreciated for who we are. One day you will find that. Someone will reciprocate the love you give them. never change who you are to please them and never settle within the comfort zone. seek growth and someone will meet you in the jorney. Best of luck :)
