GL, some of your posts have left me feeling angry and/or frustrated. I've told you on one of them that I will no longer engage wiht you on that subject. You'll notice, though, that I am still engaged in dialog with you on other subjects. I hope that gives you some evidence to use in answering that question.

You can be accepted as a person, and still people can be angry with you. I get angry wiht my husband, and I still love him. Being angry is not the same as rejecting someone.

And do remember that this is online, not real life. Your friends here are valuable, but friends in real life would do you much more immediate good.
