Like many women, I've had times when I felt low and empty. I was hungry for affection and so the first kind thing a man would say to me made me think he could be "the one" for me. I went through a few too many relationships with nice guys who were not meant to be my guys.
As women, we're emotional and even the toughest of us are still emotionally susceptible when it comes to matters of the heart. If there is a history of abuse or bad relationships and low self-esteem, then that area is twice as vulnerable. But that emptiness you feel is not meant to drive you from bed to bed. It isn't an emptiness that can be filled by just any man, and in fact, cannot be healed by a man at all.
The hardest lesson is the one that makes us face ourselves. Love has to come from within and not without for it to matter. You cannot hope to meet anyone whose love is big enough to make up for the love you will not give to yourself. That's an incredible burden to place on anyone. The better idea would be to heal first by learning who you are and accepting that person, loving that person unconditionally and then choosing to give that person (YOU) the best life possible. And when this is done, the right person will not be difficult to find and the relationship will not begin with a deficit. Men, you know this goes both ways without saying.
