Date Yourself

One of my favorite tricks that worked for a while was taking myself out on a date and talking about myself in the third person. Like, ‘She likes this,’ or ‘She enjoys that.’ Stepping outside my own perspective helped me figure out what truly makes me happy and brought me closer to myself.

It’s surprisingly cathartic to discover things about yourself you never realized. Over time, it clicked that I love perfumes (or maybe just good scents). Now I treat myself to new scents every once in a while. 

Hope it does help people out there trying to love themselves. Just need to sit down and have a conversation with yourself here and there.

@Smile4mepls That is an excellent idea. I need try that sometime. Its almost similar but not quite. I did what I call 2 brains but it entails talking against the negatives someone else told you About myself that I had came to believe. Doing it stopped me from listening to their voices tell me in my memories.

I've always been a fan of this idea, and have done it plenty of times as a single lady! I haven't yet done the whole repeating 'she likes me' to myself, though.
