  "account": "Shahana Goswami recently discussed her relationship with Milind Soman, who is 21 years her senior. The pair were together for approximately 1.5 to 2 years. Reflecting on their time together, Shahana realized that her self-worth was the key to feeling loved in a relationship. She stated that until she learned to love herself, she couldn't fully receive love from others. This realization led to their breakup in 2013. Psychotherapist Delnna Rrajesh explained that self-love is essential for giving and receiving love in relationships. She emphasized that genuine self-love stems from self-respect, which involves respecting oneself enough to not compromise values for others' acceptance. Delnna further clarified that self-love is not about believing oneself to be perfect but rather acknowledging imperfections while maintaining compassion and accountability.",
