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

Nope, I only surround myself with people who think I'm a really awesome person. Does wonders for the self esteem. I've never felt the need to be friends with everybody. A hand full of really close friends is much more fullfilling to me then a slew of casual friends. I might ponder for a fleeting moment why somebody didn't like me, but since I wouldn't seek out being friends with them, it would be out of my head faster then it came in.

Now if somebody goes out of their way to be rude to me that's different. That would bother me. You don't like me, fine, but I don't see any need to be rude to anybody. I might not choose to do social activities with somebody, who I feel I don't have anything in common with, but I'd never be anything but polite to them.

It doesn't really bother me anymore if someone doesn't like me, but that's only been in the past few years. Before that I thought I'd done something wrong if they didn't. I think part of it's age and part of it's the knowledge that not all personalities get along. That doesn't mean their a bad person or I am, it just means our personalities don't work together. I work with someone now who I don't like nor does she like me. We work together so we'll discuss work related issues, but I wouldn't sit down and discuss how our weekend was, etc.

Don't bother me a bit. If it was one of my close friends then yea, it would bother me. This girl doesn't like me now because I didn't vote for here in the student council elections. I voted for one of my 6th grade friends. she hadn't really liked me before that and i had hardly even talked to her. It got really annoying. I think she is just mean because yesterday my friend Judith dropped her binder and all her papers fell out, so she was calling Judith a loser. She was saying "HaHa loser, you dropped your papers!" That is one of my pet peeves, people who are rude and mean. I think they are immature when they do something like that. They should know better when they are 12 or 13 years old.

It upsets me that some people don't like me. I know that occasionally people don't click, and that's alright but some people judge me before they know me. That's what really hurts me.

It does not bother me at all in adult life. A child somehow doesn't know
that it takes all kinds of people to make a world. As the old saying goes,
"older and wiser" now.
