Is it normal to feel so bad about this?

I want people at work to like me since im around them so much. Im laid back and I think fun to be around. Yet they seem to exclude me even when I try to be part of the group. Its destroyed my self esteem. Is this normal?

  • Why would you wana be included in anything people that you work with are doing? I go out of my way to avoid them.

    Just because you work with them doesnt mean you need to be friends with them.

    You can't make people like you. Apparently, there's just something about you that causes you and these people to be incompatible. It's not necessarily your fault, they may all be less-educated than you are, or have different interests. Just do your job and stop worrying about it!

    My life has been like that. I can't really give much advice on how to make friends with people. But I can tell you, life is better when you can care less what others think.

    Yeah that has happened to me too, It really does hurt but dont let them know,i suggest you play it cool, come in one day say hello and walk away casually do this for a few days be nice but keep your distant complain about something they can relate to...like the work hours and bring in cookies say they suck and you made them yourself but obviously they should be nice and walk away leave it at that.

    They just don't like you that's all.
