I’ve allowed too many women to love me when I was incapable of returning their love. Even when I thought I was, I wasn’t. I won’t make that mistake again. Until I truly love myself, no one else is allowed.

You can't control other people's emotions, that's their responsibility, but I'm guessing you're referring more to you not incentivizing women to love you until you love yourself, and that's different.
You are worth being loved, by yourself, and then by others. Good job making the decision to learn to love yourself, as you are right, you can only give as much love to others as you have for yourself.
Bless you as you go on this journey of self love!
Yes.. entering into relationships I had business being in because of my relationship with myself. I see it now. How self hate destroys. I won’t allow it again, I don’t want to hurt another’s heart. I have to fix my relationship with myself or remain alone
Opposite for me. I've allowed myself to love women way too much without loving myself enough.
when will you know?
Honestly it may never happen.. and I have to be ok with that. I’m not going to be the reason another woman doubts her love or her beauty.. it’s soul crushing. I can’t do it.
I'm glad you can see that, not many people can 🫂
If you knew the pain I’ve inflicted on good women before having this realization, you may change your mind. I know they forgive me, I was always kind, always a good man, but I just fucked it up,.. so many times.
