Ever feel like a person doesn't like you?

Post Reply New Topic

What a time I was having today, I was at my cousins Sunday lunch and they had invited two complete strangers.
For some reason I felt as if the woman knew there was something different about me and acted oddly.
And I felt anxiety all the way through.

I feel that way quite a bit. People tend to make up their minds about me almost instantly. They usually think I'm a ret*d and I have nothing to offer them in terms of social climbing. Sometimes people will claim to like me and want to be friends, but their actions say otherwise.

Always. Even when I know that someone likes me, I still feel that they don't.

Maybe that's why it's easy for me to let go when a relationship ends.

Hi, I like your avatar BTW!
I have been in a relationship in the past and for the exact same reason I didn't feel anything when the relationship ended just emptiness and thoughts of why I couldn't get attached to that person. Even the same for friendships

Everyone likes, doesn't care, or dislikes you

You can't guarantee just the first two

Plenty of people do not like me

Some of them make no effort to conceal it

Some of them put on a facade

I would say most people are indifferent to me......that's referring to my religious affiliated group. Nobody has taken an interest in getting to know me. Dislike would at least be a feeling.

I remember this boy at college didn't like me. I made a social faux pas on the first day and he called me a freak and never spoke to me since. I know that was over 10 years ago so I don't care now but this thread just reminded me of him.

That boy was just a jerky adolescent.....

No, everyone loves me.

Most people hate me because of my stubborn and arrogent personality and the way i grass on people at work without realising its annoying them,
But i dont care weather people like me or not in fact i rather they didnt like me because i have no desire for friends only my hubby.

To answer the question you've posted:

I just kind of figure it's always assumed.

Yes, I have had that happen from time to time but for the most part, people tend to gain their dislike towards me over a period of time because they learn I don't live up to their unrealistic expectations.

For me, I think it's because they don't know how to respond to my situation very well because they see I am a little off. Rather they either don't know how to approach me because they are afraid of saying something that might offend me or think they can have limited conversations with me.

For example, at my last place of worship the leader and his wife were sitting behind me having dinner for a special occasion where everyone dressed up in costume. They happened to be Superman and Lois Lane. They assumed that I knew everything about Superman so they asked me about the name of some reporter who worked with Lois and Clark. Sure enough, I told them that I had not seen the movie in a few years and that I was more interested in youtube blogs.

They said,"That's cool," which I understand is a polite way of saying, "Whatever!" and rolling your eyes so I turned around.

I always feel like that i think it's a given with autism tbh. I've long since stopped trying to please people.

Can't please everyone.....just be yourself.

My mother said,
“Don’t worry
what other people
think about you.
They probably don’t.”

I say,
“The more
you know me,
the less
you’ll like me.”

I have developed an INTJ personality trait. Other INTJs describe themselves as "We choose to be ourselves and not care what others think". Definitely me.
