God's greatest commandment is to love Him and love others. We just can't seem to grasp that concept. Before we can grasp it, we must acknowledge why we won't grasp it.
There's two disadvantages to loving others that I can think of.
-If we love others we don't have as much love to give to ourselves.
God loves us enough, we don't need to love ourselves.
-To love like God's asks us is very strange to earthly standards.
Romans 12:2, "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."
We shouldn't worry about conforming to earthly standards, let's conform to God's standards.
Make the choice. Love.
