But seriously... all my life I deluded myself into thinking that I was lovable. Only recently I've realized that everyone is put-off me. Why is that? I'll like ask people questions, and they don't even respond! They just pretend like don't exist and hope I'll go away or something!

*sigh* I just don't get it...

Why does everyone like PersonGuy?
PersonGuy is just like you... just a guy... nothing too special. YAH RIGHT! So why does everyone like him... even LOVE him (except for the few that REALLY HATE him)?
PersonGuy is a very unique individual who always does things his own way; never buys into the hype; sets his own trends; takes risks. He's a thinker who's always trying to understand what we have now, and what we should have. Knowledge is everything to him, and until he has it all he can't be satisfied.
Writing is PersonGuy's passion. He writes columns and articles for fun. He's a new reporter for several web sites. He has 2 web sites of his own. He writes short stories and poetry.
But we still haven't answered the initial question: Why does everyone like PersonGuy? - He's friendly, polite, understanding, smart, witty, and humurous. He's here for you and everyone else. If you have a problem, then always feel free to talk to him; if you have a question, then always feel free to ask him; if you need help, then always feel free to recrute him!

I'm fine, I guess I just didn't explain it very well:

Example: I'll write a REALLY well-written letter (EVEN SPELL CHECKED! WAHOO!) to a respectable company and never get ANY kind of response! That's happened like 5 times in the past few months!
Example 2: I'll be having a great chat with someone about whatever for a while. Then like later down they rode when they're slightly mad at me, they'll bring up stuff about how they hate it when I talk to them. And even worse, the reason they're mad it like cause they've had an ass load or something.
Example 3: I'll tell a chasheer // waiter to have a nice day when I leave, and they just LOOK at me like I'm crazy or something!

WHAT IS THAT!?!

Edit: I can't spell "crafty"

At the start of the school year, I was making all sorts of friends, getting to know lots of people, having conversations with them, etc. I thought that all these people must really like me.

Then, I would be at lunch, sitting alone, and catch their eye, but they would go sit with someone else anyways. Or I would walk past them and they wouldn't even so much as look up at me or say hello. Or I would be at some party or other event and see them there but they wouldn't bother to come over to talk to me. So, I reached the conclusion that no one liked me, after all.

Until I realized something. When I'm at lunch, I don't always have the guts to walk up to someone and ask if I can eat with them. When I'm walking to class, I'm not always looking at the people around me. And even when I see someone that I know, I'm often too shy to just walk up and talk to them, at east if that person is a girl. But when I do this, it's just because I'm too shy or not paying attention, not because I have anything against that person.

Anyways, once I realized this, I saw that maybe other people were just shy too, maybe just like me, they sometimes did something that made them look like they were avoiding me without really meaning to. So now, I'm giving people the benefit of the doubt, and trying to reach out to them whether or not they have done so in the past. Maybe there are some people who really were trying to avoid me, and if so I'm probably annoying them, but it's better than losing a friend because I was insecure and imagined that they didn't like me when they really did.

(And I think I already completely wrecked a friendship with one girl because I managed to convince myself that she didn't like me and that the best thing I could do was "give her some distance" before I realized that. Sigh... I'll give it another shot when I get back to school.)

I know what you mean about even people you don't really know (like waiters and cashiers) seeming to dislike you, but I can say from experience that a lot of this comes simply because you walk around with some sort of subconscious assumption that there's "something wrong with you" and that people are purposefully avoiding you.
