There are two things I would like to share with you, sayings from my mom when growing up.

"Artchick, you are not better than anyone else, but you are just as good!"

"You have 2 ears and one mouth, learn to listen to others half of what you speak"

Maya Angelou said it this way:

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you

Try getting outside of your head maybe, and pay more attention to others' thoughts and feelings. Who knows, you may end up the favorite in the group.
