I am a mum of two, recently separated (my choice). I have come to the conclusion that basically, it is probably difficult for me to love since I don't love myself enough. I am a successful profesionnal and I trust my capabilities at work, I also have confidence that I am an OK mum. But basically I find myself terribly ugly (which I am told is not true, and somehow I know it's not but..) and I find it difficult to understand that someone would want me (despite the fact that I have had several very "in love" partners in my life). I have been to councelling several times but this has helped me a lot but I have not been able to get rid of that "I don't love myself" ongoing feeling.
As any of you been in that position and how do you cope with it ?
