The harsh reality that many women struggle to admit is that if you are dating a guy who doesn’t make you happy—I mean overwhelmingly, so clearly, no question about it happy—you don’t fully love yourself. Some women cringe or close up when someone suggests they don’t fully love themselves because it can feel like an accusation that that woman isn’t strong or that she has issues.

Due to things you experienced in your past, the simple concern about being an egomaniac and several other factors, you may resist seeking out the life and relationship you actually deserve.
