Some people put others down because of their own lack of self esteem.

It’s only when you take a step back that you can find your self-worth. Time and distance gives you a chance to reflect and realise what you want and deserve. It can also make others miss you, and realise what you mean to them, but quite often it doesn’t and hopefully if it does happen, you’re strong enough, and full of enough self-esteem, to decide if that person is really the sort of person you want in your life after all, especially if they didn’t value you enough whilst you knew them. ~ Libby Dee

Walk away from those who would string you along and use you for their own satisfaction and gratification. You are worth so much more. You deserve so much more. ~ Ken Bauer
