How old are you? Do you think yourself this way?
People think others as a doormat just because they give in too easily or let others have their ways. If you can stand up for yourself and can compromise when you need to, I'd say you're fine. You don't have to be mean and rude in order to prove that you're not a doormat.

If you let people consistently take advantage of you, you are a doormat. If, no matter what someone does to you, you don't take up for yourself, you are a doormat. If you expect bad things to be done to you, you are a doormat. You have to examine your own self and determine exactly who you are, (and why your parents would say that)

No one wants to think of themselves that way. But they can't be saying that for no reason whatsoever. Have the courage to examine your own behavior objectively. If you're a doormat, CUT IT. Your life will suck if you are in fact a doormat. You can still be a kind, caring, giving person without ever sacrificing SELF-RESPECT.

You must ask yourself if everyone in your life is crapping on you!
Then you'll have your answers, you may not like what your parents said but they might be trying to enlighten you!
Good Luck!

I would consider your parents advice....They may know you better than you think they do..and they are a little more objective about it...I would ask them why they think you are a door mat...and talk about it...You may learn somethings...

Beat them senseless and take their money for beer.
No, don't beat them.
But definitely get rude and demanding. That's what they want to see.
Also, break stuff when you don't get what you want.

Don't worry about what other people think.
