I keep reading that nobody likes to be around someone who is full of themselves and brags a lot. I know a girl who is so conceited. She is always bragging about how smart she is etc. Yet, she is well liked by others. Even in highschool she was somewhat popular.
When she had a baby, her friends threw her a baby shower and many people came to see her. People really seem to care about her.
I never try to act proud but people don't give a crap about me. I was so alone when I was pregnant. And now people don't even bother to find out how me and my daughter are doing.
What's up with that? Is there something I'm doing wrong to push people away from me? I admit I have a temper. But who doesn't have weaknesses?

Hey girl! Keep your head up! Never, never, never, never compare yourself to someone else. If a person is conceited it is because they dont think of themselves as highly as they speak of themselves. That is how they compensate. Usually, people like this do not hold onto friendship through the course of their life. I would like to see how many of those friends are around in 10, 15 years. People change and move on. Real friendship is what you should be after. And its not about HOW many friends you have..just whether they are REAL friends that are there through the thick and thin. You can meet friends in some of the wierdest places sometimes when you least expect it. Its not something you force, it just happens. Just dont worry about it and go through your life being the best person and the best MOTHER that you can be..and friends will take care of themselves.

There is a difference between self confidence and conceit. If you are not a friend of this woman you are speaking about. You really don't know what kind of person she really is. She may be a great friend to a lot of people. Perhaps you need to work on your self esteem and anger issues. When you are aware of your weaknesses. You do something about it. Don't focus on the lives of other people. Focus on your own life and what kind of example you want to be for your daughter. Who do you want to be?
figure that out first and then proceed to being it.
See a therapist if you are having a hard time figuring it out on your own.

It seems some people have what is called "Charisma" it's something about them that draws people to them & I guess they don't see their faults like they do in other people. Not many people have this , but you can see it when they do. I would imagine that you have some friends or family who care deeply about you & your baby & wish you the best. Try not to judge yourself against any other person. You are special in your own way & i'm sure you are as nice or nicer than the other girl. Maybe you just have a different way of showing your self to others.
Hang in there! Good luck to you & your baby!

Is not that nobody likes to be around them, they do but in a sick way... in my school the girls who you thought of as sl*ppers (the really popular ones) the boys that hung around with them wanted a leg over and the girls that did it wanted to get in on the action. People seem to like these people as it boosts their self esteem. I prefer to have quiet, close friends who arnt out for anything with a pulse, and wont drop me at a moments notice. your time will come, consentrate on making close friends that will stick by you not the shallow ones around this girl. Also consentrate on what you got ie a daughter who loves you, youve got all you need right there xx

i am very sorry you were alone through your pregnancy.
i guess, thats just kinda one of the secrest of the world... the unfairness of it all. i know many people who are not nice at allseem to get all the best stuff.
the only thing i know to say is maybe, people thought these things about you:
too qiuet
needy
aloof
too intimate
rude
too strong a temper
i dont know you and i cant tell how you are by a few words, but if any of these apply to you, then maybe youshould consider working on your likability.
luck,
me

Maybe you have low self-esteem ? Or maybe you should just not compare yourself to others because everyone is different. Just be yourself and remember to always smile ! Believe me a smile makes a big difference.

If you want people to get along with you you have to get along with them also but do you go to see how other people live how do they feel things you would like in return. If you do then I don't think you should go anymore because they don't deserve you to be their friend.If not you should start now if you want them to be your friend .
