This needs more up-votes!

Jaw-droppingly correct.

Right on!

Can I get an AMEN!

My Favorite :)

Truth!

Yup

Covers a lot of ground in a few sentences.

Be naked as much as you like at any age.

The opposite is also true, your feelings aren't everyone else's problem.

Correct!

And don't be afraid to show those documents when the time comes...

So right. But also very very hard to execute :-(

This would solve so many other problems!

The shoes....that is golden advice.

Working with a good therapist is one of the best pieces of advice.

Work for your own happiness. No one else is going to do it for you.

And learn to tell wether you're hurt because you really loved someone or if it's just your pride that's actually hurt.

Best one.

How about "stop seeking approval".

I love this one!

"Compliment yourself more, like you would a friend"....this is an eye-opener for me

it took me a lot of tears to figure this out.

"Don't use someone else mirror to see your own reflection" That's a keeper

Oh, I wish I had that ten years ago: "If someone makes you feel bad about yourself for something that hurts no one..."

I love how this also focuses on health. Physical needs are just as important than emotional needs.

Doing something alone can mean spending quality time with yourself.

'This, too, shall pass' has been my lifelong mantra, and has gotten me through some of the roughest times!

Actually, what I believe is being said, is that buying the highest quality that you can afford is better than buying the cheapest because it's less expensive and likely won't last as long. I speak from experience on this.

OOOH I so love the second part of this!!! My new motto:" Be your own goldilocks". (nothing wrong with the first part... the second part just really hit home!)

True, mine waited.

That's not retro, that's timeless.

I am 70, and I regret that I have never lived alone!

You can never fix the broken ones. They can only break you.

I LOVE that "you don't have to set yourself on fire to keep anyone else warm"--ah yes, the entirety of my 10-year relationship with the dud

This is a great one

On the other hand, if they are calling you 30 times a day, get out!

If they are mistreating you, they might be testing you. Don't be a Guinea pig.

Thank god I've learned this in my teen years!

And if others have told you that you won't like it or be good at it. 😉

YES!!!

When higher income, more educated people try to intimidate me, I don't fall for it. I am not a lesser person than they are.

Don’t forget the “What if..?”

I guess what she wanted to say is simply "don't rush". Like, try living with a few men before you find the one for you - Daria B (Just wanted to “repost” this for the people who don’t scroll all the way down)

The longer you stay in a bad job, the more you think you deserve it.

Behind every successful person, is a lot of failures.

Where is that magical place? There are a**holes everywhere.

Conquer that fear, ladies.

"Comparison is the thief of joy." How true. Ignore all those FB posts proclaiming "my perfect life." Things can be quite different behind the lens.

Oh so true ! Be the captain of your life ! Love yourself, you are your best friend !

Yaaaassssss!

Reminds me of Mean Girls.

Be your own version of "normal", it takes far less energy than faking "average"

Don't stay in a bad relationship through fear of being alone

First step is to get diagnosed.There is much more awareness now about Aspergers. My son was not diagnosed until age 18. Throughout school, he was labeled as Emotionally Disturbed. Guess what that did for his self esteem?

What is Lexapro?

The reason people fear aging, is because it is a youth oriented society and you are judged by what you look like. You are often disrespected and sometimes spoken to as if you are a child. Your feelings and needs are often ignored. You are regarded as if you are useless. All of this stems from the fear younger people have of their own aging. Ignore all of that and save your self esteem. Join the Red Hat Club.
