Dear Druidess, I believe that if we do not like or want ourselves we will escape ourselves and avoid alonetime (vipassana course for example) with ourselves. When we are not satisfied in our own company we will not only think we can find happiness somewhere else, and want to "escape", but we will also like people who abandon us/do not choose us because we will think they are right/smart/real, we would not choose ourselves either. If you love yourself you would never think about being with someone who does not love you, you will set your relationship with yourself at top and being true to yourself higher than anyone else. Then you will not need validation or fullfillment from anyone, but you will want to build something with another person who loves u for u, and not one who does not choose you. Why would you want to be with someone who does not want to be with you? That is insane and i hope you see it for what it is. I hope this helps!
