YOU MAY NOT ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE OF THE PEOPLE WHO SURROUND YOU, BUT YOU CAN ALWAYS CHOOSE THAT NO ONE HURTS YOUR SELF-ESTEEM

"You may not always have a choice of the people who surround you, but you can always choose that no one hurts your self-esteem."

Your self-esteem is the value you give to yourself. If you see the value in yourself, you will never be with someone who lowers your self-esteem.

Many times we are in a relationship where we become so emotionally dependent that we stop even seeing the wrong when someone mistreats us. The fear of losing that person dominates our minds, and we become willing to lose ourselves. People who really value us, respect our dignity and never behave or say anything that make us feel unworthy.

If you ever experience a relationship where your worth is questioned, you may need to think about it, talk with the person, and express your concerns. It will be hard, and you may even feel weak, but taking a stand for your self-respect is something one should always choose to do.
