So, I'm trying to be more likeable.

Well I've never had a problem with you anyways to begin with, but if you're ever trying to do the same thing in real life, confidence is the no. 1 way to get people to like you. You will get girlfriends, malefriends, and everybody will just like you. Of course, I only did this for a while before I discovered I only need those select few people in my life to make me feel special, and although I can be confident and as loud as I want, I prefer to keep quiet and not say much when it comes to meeting new people.

Unless I'm drunk, then that goes out the window.

Haha, nice. I seriously need to stop being so serious about everything IRL, because there's been multiple times where I've laughed and someone near me has said "[Anon], That's like the first time I've seen you laugh, lol"

It kind of hurts me. But meh, I just need someone to help me along with it.

I have the problem of trying to befriend everyone I meet, and of course that's not going to work. I'm too cynical. I've already had someone try to completely ruin my reputation, and I can't have that happen again.

Oh, I have experience with this.

That was dotdotcircle.

Lol, I have dot i think multiple times in my name, but no. That guy has been getting a little better lately, from what I've seen. And I haven't seen much of him.

Ahhh, ok

Doesn't just kind of kill you inside?

You feel like the most boring person in the world when someone says that to you.

I try and laugh more. Generally I'm just more cautious around people I don't know very well, which is usually the reason people end up saying that.
Though I'll admit I hardly smile, even when I feel good or happy.

This. When I try to smile, I either look like an idiot or it's unnoticeable.

Hey, you're not so bad yourself. Confidence is key, you just have to understand that attention isn't always going to come to you. I learned that the hard way.

Yeah, I can come across as cynical sometimes, or even arrogant. You just need to be careful of what you say to people, but at the same time, you need to befriend people in a way that makes them want to be YOUR friend, not so it seems like you really want to be their friend. That way you filter out the people that are stuff friends and keep the keen ones in.

Cruel when you look at it like that though. I probably shouldn't post the way I veiw these matters, but seeing as nobody is ever going to read this that will meet me in real life, I am.

Over the past year, I've undergone a lot of personality changes and I feel I've become more likeable, it all comes with maturity, and maturity comes with age. Believe me, IRL I'm the biggest hippy on the inside but I'm happy with who I am now, and a lot of people feel that way, too. Some people tell me I'm the nicest person they know, so I feel pretty good about that.

Yeah pretty much this.

This too but it's probably due to the fact that I talk quietly or something

[Katadeus]

I have disliked your behavior but honestly it's okay. Just tune it down a tad.

[TeslaCoil]

The one way to gain my respect is to stop caring and make people like you for who you are.

Didn't half the forum hate your guts for a good while?
