Do you know how you come across to other people?

I really don't.

Like it shows in my writings and lack of people skills. I can't help to feel that there is some required element of one's personality to being liked that I'm lacking.

It's a blank spot.

Evidence is in the reaction of others...responses...phone calls...Invites...attention.....zero....zilch....nada...

Only times I had "friends" was when I had a lot of drugs. Now nothing. I do make efforts but are often taken the wrong way, ignored, or even worse- rejected...then it starts looking "needy" so I step away from that.

Whats even worse is when an Other's personality screw it up for me....I'm so sick and tired of being on guard.

People seem to know how they come across to other people and use it to there advantage....Hollywood is full of them...to me it's a mystery.

Just saying.
