“Dear Human: It's no secret. Relationships take time, energy, and perseverance. So you can imagine when a relationship falls apart and ends unexpectedly, in comes the pain and heartache, especially when everything you had was invested into that other person. Breaking up is not easy...it will bring you down. But the beauty of it all is when you hit rock bottom, the only direction you can go is up. This is the time to rise, where you will come out stronger, wiser, and unbreakable! The most common advice ever given when it comes to being in a relationship is to be yourself. While that may be true, a more appropriate advice would be to know yourself...or better yet love yourself. Before jumping into another relationship, ask yourself, do I really, truly, genuinely have personal love for myself? Through sickness and in health...for better or for worse? Why does one become his/her own worst critic and yet the biggest fan of a significant other? You should be your own biggest fan. Fall in love with yourself before falling in love with someone else. Know that YOU are worthy, YOU are valuable, YOU are one in a million. But to know is only half the equation...you must also believe. As you work towards moving forward in life, remember this quote by Deepak Chopra, "Everytime you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask yourself if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future." Welcome to a new book of your own destiny! Without further ado, here are 5 more quotes to help you in your journey of personal love. "New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings." -Lao Tzu "Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option." -Mark Twain "All the strength you need is inside of you." -Karen Salmonsohn "Goodbyes are actually just introductions to ourselves." "Respect your uniqueness. Drop comparison. Relax into your being." -Rumi "Don't be so hard on yourself.

Totally agree with you that one has to love oneself first before being able to share that love with someone else
