Self-love means having a high regard for your own well-being and happiness. Self-love means taking care of your own needs and not sacrificing your well-being to please others. Self-love means not settling for less than you deserve.
It's wrong for you to love someone else more than you love yourself. Love yourself enough to accept your mistakes and move on. Love yourself enough to fight for what you truly deserve; enough to say NO when it is needed in order to protect your sanity. Love yourself enough to walk away when respect is no longer a meal on the menu on the table you're seated.
Self-love is not being selfish I promise you. Being selfish is loving just yourself at the detriment of others; but SELF LOVE means loving yourself even when the whole world seems to be taking time to know and love you. Have you ever gone to a beautiful supermarket and you see something you would love to have and then goes to the counter to pay an extra for the commodity just because you love it and know its worth more? But I am guessing your answer is "NO" and that's because it already has a price tag and if for any reason you feel it should be more, you still wouldn't pay above what's written on the shelves. Now you see why people can only value you to the extent you value yourself. Someone said "if you believe coffee can't keep you awake then even 10 cups will still make you sleep". Work on your mindset, be careful what to let in and the ones to let out. Protect your energy and above all love yourself well enough because that is the way you set standards and levels on how you let others love you. Self-love matters and you can only truly love yourself once you accept yourself and start living out your purpose. If you haven't found out your purpose yet then it will be difficult because you struggle with different opinions of who people think you are. Seeking people's validation before accepting yourself is a dangerous adventure.
Having a healthy relationship with others is very much important but a healthy relationship with yourself is much more important. Love yourself first, that's good health and self-worth or self-esteem.
