I’m not actually sure you want a response or answers to this or not. But I’ve already started typing, so here goes.

I don’t believe you need to look for love in order to find it. I think you need to love yourself first, for all your strengthes and weaknesses and then sometimes, in the most unexpected way, love can find you. People are attracted to people with confidence (that’s why they say someone who’s already in a relationship always gets hit on). and loving oneself will show itself as confidence in who you are.

Thanks for the input. Love has always been sort of like the Loch Ness monster to me: there are people who swear they’ve seen her and say vague things about her, but really I’m going to remain skeptical until I see her for myself. Of course, somehow I think there’s a greater chance of love existing than ol’ Nessie…
