Is it normal that I'm afraid I'm not liked here????

You can't let that kind of stuff bother you. People often make it clear that they don't like me. Not sure what they gain by saying it, because I don't really pay any attention as I'm not here for popularity. I'm here because I like it here.

One tip I'd give you; if you are here primarily for popularity, people have a habit of sniffing it out and that kind of thing does make people unpopular.

Just be yourself, be considerate, have a few conversations with people, ask a few questions, and just relax. The people I like most here are the people who don't take things too seriously, enjoy each other, try to contribute, and try to be open rather than hostile.
