Is it normal to feel animosity for no reason?

I get these feelings of animosity for no reason sometimes. Or I think there is a reason its just I have a hard time distinguishing what it is exactly. Usually its because I sense people don't like me or think bad of me right away. That can be an insecure issue or I just sense things quickly. I think its 50/50. But yeah once I sense that, I obviously don't want to associate with those people and when I have to, my animosity can show through attitude or the looks or vibe I give to them. A really good example are my brother's friends. He passed away but when he was alive, they would all hang out and not with me. Supposedly I seemed like the out cast and then once he passed away, his friends look at me like in a bad way as if I don't care about what happened, or I am the out cast sister blah blah. It is so annoying because they don't even know me. And when they talk to me, I'll be as polite as I can be but I have a little attitude going on because I know they don't think positive of me as if they know who I am, and my side of the story. So I dread whenever it comes to these events celebrating my brother's birthday or the date he passed away because i know there will be a bunch of people there I don't like because they don't like me. There's just tension overall and I just want to get away because I get disgusted with those people.

    People sometimes get ideas of who you are in their head because of what's someones said, who you were on a bad day, or just based on your life decisions. None of those truly reveal who you are, and you can only really know someone truly, through friendship. So they shouldn't think they know you. As for your end, and this isn't easy, but don't let it bother you. Do your best. Be loving and kind and open, and maybe one day they'll turn around but that's not your mission. Just be you.

    You've got a good reason to be angry. That anger is getting spread out to the rest of your life. It seems you can either confront these people who are judging you, or you can find some good times and spread them out over the bad. You know instead of spreading the bad out over the good. Hope this helps at all. Have good memories of your brother, and God bless.

    Sorry to hear about your brother.

    People deal with things in different ways instead of being all judgemental of you they should try to get to know you but you in turn should try to block out what people may or may not be thinking.

    At the end of it all if people don't like you for you are they really worth your time?
