Regardless of anyone else's opinion of you, there is still life to live - discoveries to make, food to enjoy, the four seasons to marvel at, etc. you don't need anyone's approval to appreciate these things. At 24 - your life is just beginning.

What people think of me matters a lot. I don't see it the way you do. I see it like this: if I can't be pleasing to others, then I have failed. It is embedded into my personality. I am a people pleaser and I can't help it. I naturally want to be agreeable to everyone and be friends with everyone. And since I do not have any friends or anyone at all, life is worthless to me. I'm not one of those people who are fine on their own. I need to be with people. I'm a follower, not a leader.
