“Maybe it’s not that they cannot love you—maybe it’s that they cannot even see the depths of your being. When someone doesn’t love you, don’t take this as an indicator of your lack of worth or a comment on what you deserve. It’s very likely that this person simply can’t see all that you are. This is not an invitation for you to try to help them see you. This is simply a reminder that for each person who cannot see and appreciate you, there will be someone out there who can.”
