I like myself but feel like others don't

Or rather, that I don't come across very well, especially early on, and people get put off.

And that's without the feeling that people who do get to know me like me for a time then just seem to lose interest after a while.

I only seem to be neurodivergent enough to be weird, and neurotypical enough to grasp social cues, but not either enough to have it be somehow endearing.

You've grown so much over the years 💙

The right people will see and understand your charm and the rest just don't matter.

Keep being you 💙

I've started to get the feeling that I'm just not in the right place/surrounded by the right people to be appreciated. Otherwise I can't really understand what's wrong with me. I've played the game and done the things that are supposed to build community and allow me to connect with others, and I was genuine in my interactions with other people. Maybe it's just an incredibly unlucky spin on my part that I keep meeting people that aren't able to meet me where I am. Maybe that's what it is for you too.

@nazgul I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe you're right though
I’ve always found you likeable. Our interests don’t seem to match very often.

But you come across as honest and straightforward.

I like it a lot.

@Mamapolo2016 thanks! :D
@KiwiDan You have a right to be here on earth, my friend.
I can relate. all you can really do is keep going as best you can.

@dirge that's the plan

Just embrace being disliked. Not everyone is going to like you no matter what their reason is. People aren’t reacting to you, but what’s inside of them. You can’t fix that for them.

Most of the time I don't like myself very much.
KiwiDan · 31-35, M
@Cigarguy You seem OK to me :)

@KiwiDan I am trying to be kinder to myself

@SomeMichGuy ok. I'm not sure they think I'm worth their time, but I can't control that
@KiwiDan RIGHT

You canNOT control others!
