@ginnysnow, sometimes words fail me. But we only have text, so I will do my best and try. I don't have a magic wand. I wish I did. You are good enough. Love starts by you loving you. That is cliché as heck, but it's true.
It doesn't matter what other people think or how other people define you or want you to be. See yourself -- I mean really see. Look at yourself as that young innocent child who deserves to be loved and see you. Banish the words that others have used. Love the person you are and want to be.
My words may not have hit the right chord. I hope they do not offend. My ears are open. I'm listening.

Mrs. Colleen, Your words did not offend me at all, How are you supposed to love yourself when no one loves you? Young and innocent, I am neither of these things, because I have hurt so many people who did not deserve it. And loving myself for who I want to be, I can't do that because I am not allowed to be myself, don't you have to be yourself to love yourself? I am very thankful for your kind words though, I am sorry for ranting btw, and am thankful for your listening to me. Your words did not fail you, they left more questions for me to answer on my own. You know I am very thankful to be here with these very kind and supportive people, you and the other people who created this site, help people like me and many others, for that I am very thankful. So thank you.
With love always,
Ginny Snow 🙂
