What should i do when i feel like everyone hates me?

So to start off, I am an introvert. I don't like communicating with anyone, walking in a crowded place, speaking in front of an audience and everything an introvert does and feel. But I'm still nice to people and I never get angry at them (even though they deserve to it). So one day, my friend passed by so I smiled shyly... and she looked me in the eye and turned her face upwards as if to say 'hmph' then rolled her eyes, like what most popular girls do to me. And the sad part is, its not only her who does it... So what should I do? ):
I feel like Im the most horrible person ever

... ask them what's wrong with me 6
... ignore this feeling 16
... be conscious of how I act towards other people 11
... snob the people whom I think hates me 8
.... feel bad about myself 3
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    Firstly, I feel like saying that just because it seems like our society praises extroversion does not mean that there's anything wrong with introverts or that you need to change in any way.

    There's not anything you "should" do. It just depends on whether or not you like being introverted and how you want others to perceive you.
    I obviously don't know your friends and how they usually act around you, so I can't really answer to that. To me, it does seem like she had a bit of a snobbish overreaction, though. With just the information I have on that one incident, it seems like it didn't really have anything to do with what you did. If it were me, I'd simply ask her about her reaction.

    One thing, though- introversion isn't the same thing as shyness. Sure, some introverts are shy, but so are some extroverts- the terms are not interchangeable. Put simply, introverted people are energized by solitude, while extroverted people are energized by social interaction. It's not an aversion to social settings- it's the way your energy levels respond to that interaction. Introverts just tend to be more choosy about who they spend their social "energy" on because it can be quite draining.

    • What purpose are you on this site for? All I see you do is write the same gay messages over and over about sucking dick. Where are you trolls coming from?

    Get new friends? You did smile. That works as a greeting too. If one of my friends did that to me, they'd probably get into a world of trouble and an ocean of insults!
    I respect people, but I also want them to respect me.

    Also, I hate crowds too. Noisy, hard to move through, blocks my view...

    I feel that a lot sometimes, and I go for ''... be conscious of how I act towards other people''.

  • A lot of extraverted people often perceive shyness as rude because they do not understand it well. When someone is shy they often seem like they are ignoring the other person by not acknowledging them. Your friend may have been expecting a verbal response such as "hello". It is socially expected to say hello to someone you know when you see them.

    This girl who is your friend. She might not understand who you are or how you feel around most people. She might think you have been avoiding her or have some false pretensions about who you are. You should try to make contact with her and ask her what's wrong.
