Re OP:
I don't know. I can't relate. People have always loved me and not cause I'm the nice guy. Don't get me wrong, I'm nice ... just not the nice guy. Rather the opposite. When everybody else is busy trying to please & placate - I've always been the one saying, "wait, this is horse shit!" (or something similar)
At any rate. I don't have much advice for you - but I can tell you this for sure...
If people don't like you it's almost always your fault. Perhaps you talk to much, or your stories are boring, or you're too opinionated, or you're not opinionated enough, or you have an annoying creepy stare. Whatever the case - it's ALWAYS (and I mean 100% of the time) the fault of the person in question and not (contrary to their own delusions) the rest of the entire world around them.
Sorry. I think you're just fine, and have no problem with you whatsoever, but facts are facts ... being yourself doesn't work if no one on earth wants to be around you for any lengthy duration of time.
