I have felt like people are annoyed by me in different scenarios as well. Because of this, I usually keep quiet and end up getting overlooked by everyone.

I have the feeling that you target the gatherings that happen with this girl, because you seem to mention that she is the only one that gives you "this" look.
Do you have social anxiety?

I only engage in the gatherings in situations where it would make sense, like for example they are standing there chatting in the room we work in and I have not yet talked to them that day. I feel like it would be weird if I continue to hang out with them but barely talk to them at work. But for the most part I am actually quiet. And I actually tend to avoid talking to this girl 1-on-1 and tend to only interact with her when we are all together as a group. I have considered the possibility that this could be why she is annoyed with me.
Yes I have social anxiety, especially around girls.
