I was bullied all throughout school for being "ugly", despite being a very social and outgoing person. My confidence diminished, and I became a shut-in. I did reach out for help back then, but none of the "adults" did anything to help me.

Once my confidence improved again, I got a job and started being more outgoing again, but people still treat me like I'm "weird". I go out, and people are extremely closed off, cliquish, and anti-social. I've been to therapy, but that can't solve the real issue, which is how others treat me.

I've been working hard to overcome the problems I had growing up, but that hard work never pays off because people aren't receptive to it. What the fuck is going on? Why can't I make friends?

needs more context, how weird is "weird" anons?
what do you usually do, what do you usually say?

>>81612640 (OP)
what job are you working? That might have to do with confidence

30 and on a similar boat

I'm just planning my exit now

why should I keep suffering to make prettier normies enjoy life more?

>>81612640 (OP)
Think you just need to spend more time looking for good people. I notice that people are putting way less effort into conversations these days. Honestly, people feel more sociopathic. Older generations love me and I have a very close friend these days so I doubt I'm an awful person.

I don't have confidence issues anymore. Read the post.

Work on being a better person not just in le confidence

>>81612640 (OP)
because it's all bullshit, just like the be polite meme. Sure it will get you by but there isn't a genuine relationship forming. You are just seen as a public lolcow that tries too hard. It's not worth changing yourself for them because they don't give a fuck in the first place, they talk about people like us being better when they are the biggest assholes to exist. they just want us to be convenient for them not being better for them, know the difference when normal niggers talk about this.

You're not going to tell me about your job or how it helped you overcome those issues

Perhaps you are ugly or smelly. Have you tried showering?

>>81613052
I shower every day, yes.

all you needed to do was looksmaxxing and statusmaxxing (through NT (neurotypicalness) maxxing)... retard, I was also bullied but they never do it because muh people are evil or muh im fat better than them in other aspects (copes)... it was because you never cared about your looks and in fact u were bluepilled all the time lol, another one is simply because you were a pathetic loser who was neurodivergent, your dress code, your mannerisms,lack of social circle, even your way of speaking might be simply off-putting. If you are an autist then it's reasonable to be that way. Either way, looksmax and statusmaxx faggot

>>81613850
Ah but have you also tried smiling and wearing fragrance?

>>81614104
This happened since elementary school, so none of that could have anything to do with it.

>>81614104
>lol, another one is simply because you were a pathetic loser who was neurodivergent

Nope

>your dress code

Everyone dressed the same.

>your mannerisms

The same as everyone else's.

>lack of social circle

Lacking a social circle IS the problem, not the cause of not having one.

>>81612640 (OP)
It's just code for "not attractive"
>>81614512
Or maybe you just are also bad socially. If it's both those things then game over

>>81614709
What the fuck does "bad socially" even mean? I was bullied before ANYONE developed any social skills, but I can hold a conversation just fine. I act completely normal.

The only thing I was ever bullied for was being "ugly". I know because that's what they said. They never said anything about the way I acted, it was just "you're ugly".
