Self-love, self-esteem, self-compassion and a couple of other unknown terms

What should I say when I may or may not want you to like me?

We will say things with honesty, authenticity and the very best of intentions and some people will take it differently . No, actually, every person will have their very own interpretation which we cannot control. Or could we control it? But do we care? But should we try? And what’s the point? But what happens otherwise? HELLO I AM BACK!1!1!1!1!

Self-love, self-esteem, self-compassion and a couple of other unknown terms

For months now I have been telling myself that I need to build self-love and strengthen my self-esteem but then I realised I do not even know what it means.... So here is the typical mainstream motivational speech you haven't asked for!

Who knew chasing our dreams means leaving some behind?

I just realised that no matter how hard I try, how hard I work, life consists of choices between which dream we keep and which we are leaving behind. Always knowing, we would still give everything to have it ..... WHAT?!

My youth cannot process that time is flying by.

I am wondering how I managed to live in the UK for 5 years, and I have almost been nowhere, explored nothing. Literally, do not ask me for recommendations I will just feel embarrassed. Between the short term responsibilities and the long term ambitions when is a good time for me to partaaaay?

Not to get existential but ... why do my friends want to be my friends?

"Why do my friends want to stay my friends?" You know just a casual, nonchalant thought I had and kinda thought I'd spread the chill vibezzzz. All jokes aside, initially, I was indeed indulging in self-pity but the more I've thought about this the more it has become an interesting 'philosophical' question about interpersonal relationships. Any ideas?
