Everyone else in the comments needs to learn to appreciate and care for themselves more. Yes, this was originally posted by someone who doesn't know us individual but also it's almost certainly true. Think about the number of people you see every week. Each time you go to work, or go shopping, or walk through town, hundreds of people see you very briefly. It would be a statistical anomaly that literally none of them find a single thing about you to be pleasant.
No-one is saying that you're a perfectly attractive person, just that there is one thing about you that's nice. Surely you can believe that?
I used to hate myself and have no self-confidence or self-esteem. I spent years and years putting in conscious effort to get to a place where I can accept myself as I am. It's a journey that has been very worthwhile. There are lots of things in my life that I dislike, but at least I don't treat myself unfairly any more. I remember what it's like going through life hating myself, and it just makes everything so much worse.

It's a crazy journey going from self-loathing to the point where now I check myself out in the mirror. I even used to hate my name, but now I slap that shit on everything, and don't even abbreviate in a professional environment.
Took a lot of years and a lot of work, but definitely worth it.
Congratulations! That's a great place to be!
I feel like I already came a long way, but mirrors and pictures remain my nemeses.
Oh, fuck pictures.
I think I'm good with mirrors because I see myself in one multiple times a day, but pictures are rare so I don't have enough exposure to them.

I believe it, I just don't think that of the comparatively small amount of people I communicate with any of them think oh they're so positive aspect! and that they consciously appreciate me because of it.
