RELATIONSHIPS
Relationships are like mirrors.Who you choose to date is a
direct reflection of how you feel
about yourself.

Or is feeling good about yourself (or otherwise) a choice?
Stumbling over my words a bit here. Not something I have really put into words before!
We all see ourselves a certain way. We like to be with people who see us that way. We don't like to be with people who think we are a bit of an a**. That's not just me. That's all of us! Watch kids avoiding adults who make them feel uncomfortable by being disapproving or over-effusive, they are VERY direct about it!
and inside those reflections we are shown exactly
what we need to see in order to further our
growth and development

No one can make us feel good about ourselves, or bad about ourselves; No one can force us to feel good about ourselves, or bad about ourselves.
Feeling good about ourselves, or feeling bad about ourselves is a choice we make in our own minds.
We can choose to say, "I'm okay, you're okay."
Who we choose to spend time with is a different matter altogether. We tend to choose to spend time with people who reinforce our self-image, hence:
Who you choose to date is a
direct reflection of how you feel
about yourself.
But...we can choose to change our self-image if we want and we can choose to spend time with different people if we want.
And we can see ourselves in who we choose to spend time with. An awareness of that can be informative and interesting.
Btw, I like interacting with you because I see you as being on a journey and that's a reflection of my own. You show things of yourself and that enables me to process, consolidate and show things of myself in response. It's all good.
I'm okay, you're okay.
