Do you feel guilty doing nice things for yourself? Perhaps you mistake self-care for selfishness. “I’m not self-centered. I just noticed the world revolves around me.” Uh-oh. Self-respect and self-love are actually necessary for self-worth, sweet friends. You may have to learn how to treat yourself with kindliness and compassion.

Perhaps you know someone who is a tad mysterious. When you’re around him, you never quite know where you stand. You intuit a touch of sadness around her. However long you have known him, he remains distant and out of reach.
