LOVE YOURSELF MORE THAN YOU WANT TO BE LOVED
Love Yourself More Than You Want to Be Loved
by Evelina Alarie
This book is for every woman who’s ever begged for love with her silence, who’s waited for a text that never came, or tried to be “enough” for someone who didn’t even deserve her.
I wrote Love Yourself More Than You Want to Be Loved as a reminder — to you and to myself — that we don’t have to earn love. We are love. And it starts with us.
This isn’t about fluffy affirmations or pretending everything’s fine. It’s raw, real, and written with fire. I talk about heartbreak, letting go, setting boundaries, choosing yourself — and doing it even when it’s hard, even when your heart still wants to run back.
You’ll find truth in these pages. You’ll find strength. And maybe, finally, you’ll stop chasing people who don’t see you — and start becoming the woman who doesn’t need to chase anyone.
Because when you love yourself more than you want to be loved by someone else, you become unshakable.
