Hi Guys - Is there something wrong wanting to be like by everyone ? Or is that being insecure in yourself ?

There is nothing wrong about wanting to be liked (that's normal and natural and it is uncomfortable when it doesn't happen)...it's when they don't like you as you are and not everyone does, when you get down on yourself because of that it becomes a problem. Hey if someone doesn't like you it's their loss and really no big deal. There is an old saying...You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time.

@riseofthemachine There is no way possible that you won't hurt or disappoint someone somewhere at some time...that is just a fact of life. Doesn't mean you shouldn't care and try to do it, but it is unavoidable and that is what you have to come to terms with.

@curiosi I'm after trying to break free from it , and when I do I get very resentful and feel savage mental pain . Then I be blaming them for making me unhappy and then I be thinking what pain there after causing me . Some of them played a lot of mind games with me trying to destroy me . I be thinking them forgive and when you forgive you feel love and my self loathing comes in thinking I'm weak
So then my belief with a God changes thinking he dont love me . Can you relate to any of this curiosi.

@riseofthemachine Yes, here's the thing....We can't do anything. It is only our willingness that changes us.
Mother Teresa went through dark night of the soul. She lamented to her spiritual advisers that she felt she had a heart of stone.
Just breathe and be aware when these feelings come up, practice feeling them and letting them go. (letting go isn't so easy, but your willingness will eventually get you there)
