People describe me as arrogant when they know nothing about me, am I one or not?

I'm a 16 year old boy, ever since I think I've hit puberty and since my looks massively changed from what they were before, so much so that when my other relatives saw me... they barely recognized who I was. On first impressions every person will see me as arrogant. Now of course they might not say this right away but on friendships on where I've continued to stay friends with a person and I asked them on how they saw me when they first met me, their response is always the same, an arrogant piece of shit. I suffer from low self esteem and have been since I was very young, at an age where a child shouldn't really look down on himself (5-6 years old) but after I've hit puberty, its like I've become a different person. I get attention from females, but when meeting males I get these rude fucking looks like they wanna bash my head with a glass bottle or something (ofc this doesn't happen every time but its still a problem for me) And the thing is, I'm nice with everyone (not the nice guy). I never take credit I'm not supposed to take, I never offend anyone if they don't offend me first let alone bully them. I have morals and goals. And most importantly I never praise myself but when I do I'm often sarcastic, a thing which most people don't seem to understand nowadays. People tell me that I have an emotionless look on my face, kind of like angry looking for some reason. Now I don't know why this happens, but I think it has to do with how I look. My mom tells me I'm handsome, but I think she does it to make me feel better about myself. Every girl that was interested in me came up to me, I never made the first move. So I think it has to do definitely with how I look. I try to be nice, but I'm never an ass kisser. And no by what I said I am not "glamourising myself by talking so much about me" I want to give a clear description on what could possibly be the case for what's been happening to me.
