Does it bother you when someone doesn't like you?

[Jadapit]

Omg, yes!! It used to bother me so much if someone didnt like me. It still does a little but not like it used to. Not everyone in this world is going to like me but hey thats ok. I know I'm a good person and thats all that matters right?

That's exactly how I feel now! It bothers me a little, but nothing like how I used to feel.

Same here, it used to bother the heck out of me, not so much anymore.

Sometimes though lately it is my fault, I am not as social as I was before & sometimes have anxiety & won't want to visit friends sometimes for weeks on end, for no reason at all. I just can't get out like I used to.

Yeah, I do that too. I can be kind of a homebody at times, that's for sure

[catnapper]

Nah, especially when I don't like them either. Its ok to not like people and not be liked back.

I used to think everyone had to like me. I used to go out of my way to make everyone like me. You know what? That took a LOT of energy and the people who disliked me never really came around to seeing what a great person I am. It probably just bugged them more that I wouldn't let them just dislike me in peace.

It bothers me when they won't talk or explain to me WHY they don't like me or what I did to cause them dislike, if that makes any sense. For example, if I do or say something that offends them or makes them upset to the sense that they don't like me or, online, block me, its hard for me because I don't know what I DID to know how to fix the problem or what to avoid in the future so I don't upset others as well.

But in most cases I won't lie -- yes, it upsets me at first, but then I get over it. Because I have friends and family who all love me for who and what I am, mistakes and all. And their opinions are the only ones that matter to me, so why care what anyone else thinks??

I feel the same way, although it does bother me for that very reason (I would like to fix me so I don't upset others) it still doesn't bother me too much.

It would of bothered me but it doesn't anymore. If a stranger, acquaintence, or co-worker doesn't like me, no big deal.

However, if a family member or one of my close friends suddenly didn't like me anymore, I'd be bothered.

[gemini9961]

It doesn't bother me really. I have far better things to concern myself with than who doesn't like me.

[cali]

nope dont bother me, I grew up with my teachers using me as a threat(no one would want me in their group so the teacher would tell the class that if no one invited me into their group, he was going to pick one at random) after years of people worrying that I might be "stuck" with them, and having peoplesit outside your class watching you and calling you "homely" well the odd person not likeing you does not seem so bad, when I was in high school though people tried to get to know me, and when they realized that I am a great person to hang out with, the stigma started to go away, and by grade 12 I was part of 3 groups. now in the work world I am very well liked, I have had the 2 locations I work at argue over who should get to have me on a particular day lol there is only one person who does not seem to like me much, what do I care? he will galr at me sometimes..well whoopdeedo a glar aint gonna kill me lol

[finn's mom]

It used to bother me so much. I'd put more into someone who didn't like me than I would people who did. I pushed a lot of people away doing that, and, have learned to just accept it. I think one thing that has made me open my eyes to the idea that it's just chemistry, some people just aren't going to click with you...is when I started to realize I just simply didn't like some of the coolest people around. And, I would start to really pay attention to what it was that I didn't like, and, it would hardly ever be something I could really pinpoint. I knew then it was really all about chemistry, and, there's nothing that can really be done about that. It doesn't mean there's something wrong with me. I still sometimes am bothered by it, but, for the most part, I don't allow myself to make time for that anymore.

[caseysmom]

It depends. If its someone I like and/or respect then it bothers me, especially if I think they are reading me wrong. If I don't respect/like them then it doesn't bother me.

[BitsyNaceyDog]

That's basically how I feel about it too. For the most part I really don't care if people like me or not. I am who I am.

I don't talk too much and often people think I don't like them because I don't talk much.

[Queen of Poop]

It used to really bother me, sometimes it still does, but that really eats up too much energy. I figure that my fur babies know me the best and love me alot so what people think of me, people who don't actually know me, doesn't matter.

[bluekat]

I hate it when someone hates you but you don't even really know them. Like this girl at school I *think* she hates me or doesn't like me (I can tell by how she looks at me). But we've never talked or anything. So I dunno. It does bother me though because I'd really like to know why I hate people who judge you before even getting to know you.

But if its someone I know doesn't like me & I know the reason, I wouldn't care too much.
