No one has ever cared about me the same way I care about them and it leaves me feeling disappointed with all of my relationships. How do I stop this?

i feel the same way. the only actual way to stop it is find somebody who loves you just the way you need to be loved. but we can’t really control that so i think all we can do is leave when we first start to feel this way and not let it continue. way easier said than done though

this probably isn’t a healthy way to go about this, but i fr had to start lowering my standards when it comes to relationships :/ i realized that i can either keep getting my feelings hurt time and time again, or i can accept that other people will never put in as much effort as i do in our relationship/friendship. (#2 is right tho this is a great thing to discuss in therapy)

That feels impossible. To find someone that loves me in the same way I love them
