Why am I ignored at work? Is it because I’m too nice? Or autistic?

I mean I am doing my best to work with the children and being more careful but I feel like I’m not appreciated and ignored. Like I do like my job so far, but when I make suggestions I’m often ignored or someone just nodded their heads but the others is listened. I think the other staff isn’t doing much to help at all. Is this the three of us that are doing most of the work but I think she’s doing a lot better since someone talk to her about it. She seems quite and reserved. She doesn’t really interact me that much but she does with the other two. I don’t know if she’s uncomfortable with me or what. I’m ignored when I say hi but they say hi to the kids. I understand the kids are more important and they need more car attention, but it hurts. When I told that co-worker I was going to the restroom, she didn’t respond to me and ignored me so I told the teacher she nodded. At least she responded. What is wrong with people? I’m trying my best to be nice and friendly. I’m used to being dislikes but come on! It’s like one of the co workers from my old job wasn’t too fond of me either. She barely responds when I am friendly. I started my new job July 26 and students started school August 3rd.

I work as an stripper so completely different to what you do , but a lot of girls don’t talk to me , it’s not because they hate or dislike me , they just want to concentrate on their business , some are very private people and have jobs outside of there and they don’t want to get too involved with just anyone as they don’t know what they are capable of. I don’t talk to everyone , I have my friends so I don’t feel the need to , I don’t hate anyone , I just want to concentrate on myself and making money , maybe your coworker is too busy working ? Maybe she’s had an bad experience in the past with people ? I got bullied at my first ever stripper job , so now I don’t make an effort to make friends although I now have an group of friends because they picked me out and because I was friends with someone before I came here that’s why. There’s friends everywhere , you just need to find them , if you don’t get any luck talking to her move on , try someone else , try complimenting people or ask them how their day is going or ask them if they need help with something they are great conversation starters. Making friends takes time and effort. But please don’t tell the teachers about her unless she’s bullying you , people have the rights not to want to be your friend , you will only make things worst for yourself and her if you keep telling on her for ignoring you
