>>19114053Ok, i'll assume this isn't bullshit larping. Here's legit therapy:
A better question is: why do you need to be liked in order to function?
How much love would you offer to ANYONE who needed to be liked in order to function? Even if you were incredibly altruistic, wouldn't you find it a taxing, needy, burden eventually, and you'd avoid it at all costs?
Someone, during your crucial developmental years, taught you that this is a perfectly normal way to behave. Now you're seeing it's not. Someone taught you wrong, and they probably did it because they believe it themselves. Remind you of anyone? Identify the origin of this limiting belief. If you can figure who it was, do you want to end up like them? Because that's where you're headed if you don't correct this. Look up other limiting (aka false) beliefs.
You can correct this by asking yourself under what conditions you would enthusiastically, and continually, volunteer love and respect to someone? Then try your best to be that kind of person. If you have to, fake it till you make it. Start small, and do not expect immediate change. You're unlearning a lot of bullshit. It will be 2 steps forward, 1 step back for a while, but if you commit, you'll see evident change within a year or so. A good idea is to keep a journal so you can look back in like 3-6 months and see that it's working, otherwise you may get demoralized even if you're making progress.
Final note, as you improve, women and scam artists will start to target you. You will personally a very important lesson about life: Success brings out parasites. It's something you didn't see before because YOU were the parasite.
