  • I can tell you that people like you bug the fuck out of me. You talk too much for one thing. And you try too hard to be liked. I think you need to get a sense of your own self worth. A decent therapist can help you there. Realize that not everyone is going to like you. Let that be their problem not yours. Get more in tune with yourself. Learn to enjoy, and sometimes embrace, the time you spend alone. I certainly do. Because it's perfectly normal to enjoy time spent alone. A time for introspection: a time to discover wonderful surprises about yourself. A time to strengthen self esteem, self confidence. This will help you enjoy the company of other people so much more. So I would suggest therapy. Please understand that there is no shame in seeking that kind of help. Great post, by the way. You more than likely helped someone else besides yourself. See? You're a good person. :-D

    • Actually people like me bug the crap out of myself too. I do realise that what i do isn't healthy. It's just that ingrained habits take time to change. I have had some badeexperiences previously which just added to my insecurities. But lately, I have had some good luck, met people who have made me realise my self worth. I am working on the change. Well, I am a work in progress. :)
