Validation - A victim's drug.

It takes a lot to be content.

If you've never been content with self.

You need people to tell/show or make you feel loved.

The feeling is illusive and better yet concealed.

At first you feel loved and validated.

Through time , you stop being secure.

Truth is the feeling fades.

Or so happens in your thoughts. 

Without loving yourself , you forever in need of being loved.

Without loving yourself,  you need daily reassurances. 

But true strength of loves is bred from within. 

Any love less than unconditional is so under-christian it's so unrepentant.

What you search for in others will forever escape you .

What you search for within , remains with and in you till the dawn of ages.
