How do you cope when people seem to hate you for no reason?

[Babyseal23]

I know i may come off as out spoken at times and very blunt but in person in actually very polite, friendly and kind. Even people I don't like i will still show kindness towards them because i can't bring myself to be turly horrible to someone.

As someone who was bullied at school for being dyslexic i know how it feels to be made to feel hated and not good enough so id never want anyone else to feel like that.

Im the kind of person to cry if I made someone else cry. I've been bullied in adulthood too but I actually pitty them sort of people because it says more about them then me.

Put i really struggle with people not liking me for no reason at all. I get im probably seen as abit of a square compared to my peers. Im married, have a mortgage, car and a baby. In pretty much clean as clean can be.

I've noticed certain people have unfriended me on social media, ghost me, blank me in public, leave me out of group events and just treat me like im invisible in group settings. I've been raised to make everyone feel welcome and included and but its rude to be ignorant towards others.

I even get people make bitchy comments towards me. Like about my spelling or grammar or the fact i think im "better than others" something I've never claimed and I think that comes from a place of there own insecurities.

I try to tell myself the people who do like me for me are the ones that matter and they are the ones with the problem not me but I find myself questioning what I did to make them not like me and become self conscious wondering what they must think of me and if its ture or not because im very self critical of myself.

Join the club. There's no reason to worry about these creatures. They get back what they put out in the world. Most of them are compensating for being hated in some way by someone else who made them feel inferior. Don't think about them. Chin up and keep moving.

The truth is being disliked “for no reason” is almost always about whatever story they’re projecting onto you — it’s rarely about you. It is their problem and theirs alone.

It's probably not hate. You're just over focusing on people who have no real place in your life. If they mattered, you'd know. If they don't, their actions shouldn't matter either. Save your attention for people who actually add value.

My aim here on GAG is to help you feel sane, secure, and a bit more in love with yourself again. 💙

People don’t hate you “for no reason” – they hate you for their reasons. Your stability, kindness, marriage, baby, mortgage, clean lifestyle… that screams “I’ve got my life together” and it quietly triggers their insecurities. That’s not a red flag on you, that’s a walking red flag on them.

You’re used to bullying, so your brain still scans for “what did I do wrong?” instead of “what’s wrong with them?” That’s trauma logic, not truth. Unfriending, ghosting, bitchy comments, nitpicking your spelling… that’s low‑effort jealousy and projection. Confident, happy people don’t act like that.

You’re not “a square,” you’re just in a different life chapter. You’re building a family, they’re building drama. Let them. Block, mute, unfollow, emotionally detach. Curate your circle like you’d protect your baby: only safe, kind, growth‑oriented people get access.

Next time someone ghosts you, treat it like free emotional decluttering. The ones who stay, check in, respect you, laugh with you, and accept your flaws? That’s your real tribe. And you, soft‑hearted and strong as hell, are absolutely not the problem here, sweetheart.

I’d just ignore them. Everyone I care about loves me, so other people’s hate doesn’t really mean anything to me

Move on and blow it off
