I spent a lot of time in my adulthood wondering why others didn't respect me in the way they should without me being very direct, or, brutally honesty. I realized I wasn't loving myself enough as I was being passive with people in certain arenas, and situations. With this understanding I learned to say 'no'.
I learned not to help people or put myself in a position to help if I didn't want to, and steered clear of the 'it's the right thing to do' mentality.
I came to the conclusion that people will treat you the way they see you treat yourself, so I showed others the love I have of myself.
Love for yourself is easy to see, hard to ignore and commands the respect of others whether they want to or not. #thatsurthurty
