Do you like yourself?

I wish I liked myself.

 

That's a sad question and it's heartbreaking that so many people answer it in a negative way. With that said, I honestly don't know how to respond. I think I'm fairly intelligent and have quite a few positive qualities, but there's also a lot of things I wish I could change. I worry that I'm simply not a very likable person though. =/

 

Yes, but I wish I was more talkitive. Other than that, I'd say I like myself.

 

Not really.

 

I do like myself, I learned to love myself after hating myself for so long. I still hate some things about myself, but overall I like who I am. I used to hate my lack of muscle and a manly body, I also hated how I screwed up and everyone was so much more skilled at everything than me. But that has eased, as I realized none of those people have the vivid imagination that I do.

 

A bit more lately. I'm working on it.

 

No, and I can't think of any reason why I should, either; I'm a rather screwed-up human being. I'm going to leave it at that before I start sounding like a big ball of angst.

 

Do I like myself?

That question itself offends me. I am perfection, dammit.

Well, honestly, it depends on how I'm feeling. Today, I feel great! Other days I want to break the mirror.

 

I like myself but there are somethings about myself i don't like but everyone has those things.

 

I don't like nor dislike myself. There are however aspects of myself that I dislike. I can get easily distracted and it causes me to lose focus easily for example.

 

I don't. Not at all. There are a few things I like about myself, like my intelligence and athleticism, but I hate how I'm really critical, and awkward, and the fact that I blow things way out of proportion. I hate how I feel like I need to be accepted, and when I am accepted, I suddenly feel like I'm not. I feel like people think I'm nice and down-to-earth, but I feel like inside my own mind I'm just... Crazy. I hate how I can't be left alone with my own thoughts, because if I am, I judge myself, I set expectations that are too high for myself, and t's just a downward spiral. I look at other people, like a bunch of the people above me, and I wish that I could like myself like they like themselves, but I just cant. I don't know anything.

 

Some parts of me I like, some parts of me I don't.
If I were asked to name which ones are which, there'd probably be a lot more things I don't like.

 

You're pretty awesome though, Yosia. And you're of this species.

That gives me hope.

<3

 

Yeah I love myself very much.....

 

Being completely honest, no, not really. I don't like myself for multiple reasons, none which have anything to do with the people that don't like me. I just feel that if I was a different person, in a different body, I wouldn't like who I was. With that being said, I'm trying my best to change into someone that I do like. It's harder than hard, but actually doing it, is all that matters to me.

 

I like some parts of myself, not others. (That seems like a really vague answer but...)

I can appreciate my strengths but very well know my weaknesses too, and I'm less than happy with some of them. Sometimes I feel pretty confident and my self-esteem is steady, other times it is fairly opposite. Let's just say I'm in the progress of understanding myself- such as my personality, my morals and my values- enough, to critically and more objectively see myself and work towards being better.

 

Yes. I would probably be able to be happy as another person, but I am very grateful to be myself.

Like everyone, I am flawed, but also I believe I am a fundamentally good person. I have some meaning in my life and I am optimistic about my future.

It's almost certain that the vast majority of my life is ahead of me. It's so important that I like what little personality has yet developed so that it can actually amount to something, rather than letting it all slip away and regretting what I could have done by having confidence in myself.

 

Ehh, not really I really have no idea how you guys put up with me, but thank you for doing so! That said, I will chalk some of my annoyingness up to my undeveloped frontal lobes, and general teen wackiness.

However, I've always tried to like myself, as it's not like I'm ever going to be someone else!

 

The question sounds rather easy but I am quite conflicted with the answers that I should be giving since it's not really an option. I love myself and at the same time I don't.

Like mackenziesr, I acknowledge that I have admirable traits and those are things that I like about myself. While that holds true, I also have qualities that I do not like. Some of these qualities are negative things that I still need to work on.

I would want to say that I like myself but at this point and stage in my life, I still find it too early to tell. I think it would sound as if I was already content with what I already have and am happy with it and although I definitely am, I wish to go beyond that and still improve.

There is a difference between "Am I happy with who I am?" and "Do I like myself?"
Am I happy with who I am? Yes, definitely.
Do I like myself? Nope. I still need to work on some things.

 

Not in the slightest. I'd go as far as to say I hate myself Ah well, life goes on I guess
