JM's thoughts echo Spike's. Spike never thought he was worthy of Buffy. He believed Angel was the Big Damn Hero so he didn't believe in himself. Having his big sacrifice in the Hellmouth pulled out from under him only to end up in Angel's office made him feel unworthy. The telling thing was how Angel reacted. He didn't tell his friends about Spike getting his soul or his relationship with Buffy. He was petty about all of it. Angel knew Spike was more of a hero than Angel was himself. Angel played on Spike's feelings of being unworthy of Buffy.
