Not everyone wants everyone else to think they're awesome. I'm perfectly fine with having meaningful relationships, and having others who are neutral to me, knowing some here and there dislike me or admire me for my personality (decisive, stubborn, etc.) depending on their own preferences. Real life is not a popularity contest.. I think you should work on the fact that you have beliefs about yourself and others that are causing you loneliness.
