A lot of women seem to not like me/don’t want to be friends

I could go into details.. but a lot of people.. especially other women don’t like me.. I feel like I bend over backwords to support people.. and I’ll admit I have flair.. I’m energetic.. and upbeat.. and to top it off I’ve always been in the cuter side.. peppy bubbly.. but I’ve got some serious down to earthness too.. and humor I love to joke and laugh...I love to volunteer.. and help others.. you’ll find me at the homeless shelter giving out food on weekends.. outdoors, fishing, ... a well rounded mix I like to think ..often overly supportive of others.. i want to know more about them and their story.. I make a special effort to include and support women who don’t see support themselves.. but yet I always find that those women like they don’t return the favor...they don’t invite me back, include me i convos back... ignore me.. and it’s sometimes very blatant.. I know we can judge others because we often don’t know what’s really going on with them.. but I find myself in this position where I feel like it’s everyone.. nobody ever reaches out, or supports me.. or likes my stuff.. the other peice if this is I’m also very successful in my career and a lot of people know that.. I got very lucky, and I’m a hard worker.. I sometimes think this plays into that.. people being jealous.. or insecure.. I don’t know what to make if it, or if there is a frame of mind that can help me feel better about this dynamic.. at the end of the day I’m longing for connection and friends and like.. I only have 1-2 close friends that really aren’t even there for me If I need someone to talk to.. I’m their shoulder.. how do I get more friends? Or what can I tell myself to realize maybe that’s not something I need. I look at my mom who had all these friends dozens.. but for some reason that isn’t me.. and I don’t know why. I get along really well in group settings but for some reason can’t peg any genuine friends down..I see all these women in groups who like to hang out etc and despite them having my number etc, I never get invited.. what is it about me that no one wants to include me? anyone relate ? Advice ?

I do feel the same. It’s difficult to make really good friends. I think women are very hard on each other.

I don't know you at all, and I am only basing my impression on this post, so it may not have much merit, but it sounds like you are feeling insecure. You are promoting yourself as successful but then I wonder why are you looking for friends here? There are likely better places online to find friends of like mind if you are a successful businesswoman. SW is more for people with some kind of quirk they like to talk about or read about.
Its highly unusual for a woman to find a woman for a healthy mutual platonic friendship here. I dont know if it has ever happened. This is where people want to generally be anonymous to explore those things that we don't dare divulge to people around us. There are also many very needy and pathetic trolls.
Dont count on finding a friend on SW who is here to be supportive. Just my opinion.

@Brassm0nk3y the real world ! Ok . I am blessed with a few down to earth friends who are true friends. Those are not easy to find. We can cry on each others shoulders. One or two of that type of friend is wonderful. Hope you find what you are looking for.

Bending over backwards, is more likely to make you popular with the men.
They are like that hun!

Lol, thanks for the laugh @Harriet03

Most women these days are not that friendly. Men are friendlier online and off. But that is only my opinion and observation.

I'm probably the same with guys, they are friendly but don't want to get to know me,
I got more female friends then male friends
