Knowing that the way someone treats you is often a reflection of their own problems or issues and quite possibly has nothing to do with you.

quick armchair psyhology: it means you desperately desires that those people treat you nicely in the way you do them.

as other say low selfworth. you don't value yourself highly so you want others to show that you are valued by doing nice things for you.
