Neediness

[nats]

the whole loving yourself is a weird thing people say when their trying to be helpful - it's probably true but it doesn't really make any sense as a starting point - kinda sets the bar impossibly high for anyone who's spent a lot of early life being rejected. don't know if that's you but sounds like you feel like that's you.

makes more sense to us to think about finding joy in things that don't relate to other humans accepting us - e.g. animals and landscapes and art and such. these don't reject us. these are trustworthy. humans aren't. some are good and a lot aren't. guess what we're saying is choose your humans carefully b/c many aren't worth the effort of needing them. that sounds harsh doesn't it. not sure where this was supposed to be going..
