equation. A relationship is a two way street. You each bring your own perspective, needs, wants and baggage to it. A failed relationship doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you (that you're unloveable, unattractive, etc.). You simply aren't the right fit for each other (even if you felt you were). You can learn from the relationship (what you can do better as a person, what you need, what you were looking for but maybe overcompensated for), but don't let it affect your own self-value. That way you can move on and take the risk again. BTW, I know this is much easier said than done, but reminding yourself of this is important. It's just about finding a fit that works for 2 people. Not the value of the people.
