I think loving another really depends on how you feel about yourself. You have to be willing to be open and vulnerable to love someone. It is a gift.
Still being loved by someone else is also about feeling that you are deserving of it. One thing I know to be true is that while we may not alway get everything we want out of life, generally speaking we tend to get what we expect.
You are deserving of being loved and treated with respect and it is going to happen, just let it happen. Believe you are worthy of it, fill your world with good things as much as possible and surround yourself with people who give instead of taking…. it will happen. :-)
