Again, if you really want to know what I am talking about, watch the new Ghostbusters movie and take note of their attitude towards Kevin.

And I don't believe that you can feel awesome without other people validating you somewhat. Only a delusional, narcissistic person can continue to see themselves a certain way despite everyone around them seeing them a completely different.
If every person sees you a certain way at some point you need to look within and ask why. The answer could lie within or with the choices you make for friends. I've not seen the new Ghostbusters movie but I have been gang attacked by hundreds of people in my high school due to a false rumor that spread. It was lonely and I did learn how to hold onto some self esteem despite being alone....and I'm not a narcissist. By definition narcissistic people REQUIRE other people to define and reflect good things back to them. They have no use of people who don't feed their self esteem.

I'm a bit different and so I don't always make tons of friends quickly. In the workplace or school settings you are often a target waiting to happen if you don't have friends. I've been friendly with people who weren't the nicest just out of necessity. They wouldn't have been my first choice in friends nor am I theirs but safety keeps us together and I do learn to appreciate them. You don't sound like you even like your friends and they treat you like crap so why are you friends again?
Thanks for this!
