How can they if they never interact with me? Then when they do I'm friendly, helpful, and kind? Everyone I interact with regularly likes me(except dad, but that's a whole other thing).
I get told by guests at work that they enjoy talking with me, and that I'm very welcoming and approachable. All my coworkers like me, and I've been told by management several times that I'm the go to person they want to deal with people due to my friendliness. The thing is, despite all that none of them have ever taken the time to get to know me. When I try to talk, I get cut off and and interrupted. No one cares about me, or who I am. I'm just a tool to be used.
I really doubt that every person perception is so sharp that they can see through all of that directly to my internalized damage at a glance without ever interacting with me. I'm sure some probably are, bug I work with the public. I can see how unintuitive most people are.
I can see how they might figure it if they did try to get to know me, and how they might be put off by that, but they don't.
Your problem is that youre at work. Guests and coworkers arent going to try to get to know you. Its a job.
beyond that, you have to try as well. If everyone you interact with likes you, then theres clearly some other issue, and it may be that youre only interacting on a surface level and expecting them to intuit you want friendship. I cant say for certain, I dont know the details of whats going on. But I can tell you that its not whatever youre claiming it is, where the world just hates you for no reason. There is something you need to and CAN do differently.
the best way to figure out what that is? Find a good therapist. Not gamefaqs posters.
