Reasons why people don’t like you when you’re generally a decent human being

Trying to figure out why people don’t seem to like me when I feel like I’m a decent human being, I’m not rude, I smile to people, and I’m cordial 🤷‍♀️. I mind my business and I’m generally quiet-ish unless I’m really comfortable around you. Maybe that’s it I guess lol

… Sorry, I always chuckle when people think other people are jealous of them 😂 But if you are a person that assumes other people are jealous of you then maybe thats why?

It could be a bunch of things, and most of them probably aren’t even your fault. Sometimes people just misread quietness. Like, if you’re more reserved or chill, they might assume you’re uninterested or standoffish, even though you’re just minding your business. People are weird like that. It could also be that you’re giving off a vibe that’s hard for some people to read. When you’re super nice and polite but not super talkative, some folks don’t know how to connect, or they overthink it. And yeah, let’s not forget that some people are just insecure or intimidated by people who seem put together. Sometimes it’s not even about you at all, it’s their bad day, their own baggage, or their weird assumptions. Or maybe they’re just stuck in their little social bubbles and don’t know how to let new people in. It’s annoying! Keep looking… you’ll find your people 🫶

Maybe people don’t dislike you they are just apathetic

@Andrea well I definitely don’t think jealous lol in fact I’m expecting that to be the least picked on this poll 😂 so I’m not really sure if you were trying to be helpful or sarcastic but thanks anyway ☺️. I’m trying to fill out the options to the poll to figure out what other people would think or would have input on.

You asked and I answered honestly.

You've posted this before. What makes you think people do not like you?...

@Andrea because jealousy is real, and people will dislike others over it. I don’t think OP thought anyone was jealous, but it is extremely common for that to be the case

Tbh, jealousy falls under their personal issues. Thats their business. A lot of the time people not liking someone has more to do with them than anything else. I wouldn’t take it personally, maybe though, you’re subconsciously entering rooms with this mindset of people don’t seem to like you so you’re automatically finding cues to validate that.

@Andrea lmfao I was just going to say this 😂😂😂😂 like I can PROMISE you it’s not cause people are jealous love 🥲 everyone who saids that never gives anything to be jealous of lmao

I always wondered the same thing, then I realized I'm autistic and my social skill are not on par with most people.

Also they're jealous too.

What makes you think people don't like you? Which people are we talking? Like other mums? Are they a different socio economic class to you?

Are you different than the people you tend to be around? I usually gravitate towards people who are similar to me because I feel we vibe and I feel comfortable to be myself around them. I do have some friends who are very different than me but they usually made the first friendship move.

@Kash yeah I deff got this a lot in high school! Plus I look serious most of the time so that didn’t help 😭
