and unfortunately you ultimately need that person to be yourself. its necessary to be valued, and your partner should absolutely appreciate your beauty, but no amount of external validation will fill the void. pro tip from someone who hasnt figured out how to do it yet ๐ŸŒ

I have to disagree, but only a little. Sometimes that external validation can help a person see their own beauty as well. Speaking from experience. He seems to appreciate it so it's easier to be nicer to myself.

This just sounds like trying to make codependency sound good.

You dont need another person to be yourself wtf.

That's the ultimate irony. You can't be loved unless you love yourself.
