MJP –
Some people just can’t be satisfied. The second is about as true as it gets in terms of being applicable to everyone.
Take a cursory look at Instagram if you don’t think so.
Even the most selfless, generous, and positive posts can get hateful comments.
Even the most generous and well-intentioned people can have their naysayers. I know folks like that.
Awful, I know.
Unfortunately, it appears that this is exactly how our species is structured.
Some people just can’t stand you no matter how much love you receive from others.
Feeling that some people detest you is normal, but you shouldn’t let it get you down or jump to conclusions.
I am available to lend you a.
What follows is a rundown of the ways in which someone who secretly despises you acts.
Alright, let’s begin!
1) Keeping one’s gaze low
Words fail when it comes to expressing disapproval of someone; deeds always do the talking.
Ultimately, it’s easy for anyone to put on an act and say they like you.
Therefore, focus more on their eye contact and other nonverbal signs of body language.
Put these 5 practices to rest if you have lost any sense of self-worth.
As a defense mechanism against showing your disapproval, avoiding long periods of eye contact is a natural reaction to people you detest.
It goes without saying that the inverse is also correct.
When we want to show someone we care and establish rapport, we look them in the eyes and try to connect with them on an emotional level.
2) Reactions that are brief or uncaring
I used to text ladies when I was younger and still in a relationship; I could tell how interested they were in me by their brief, uninterested replies.
When we’re not really into someone, we tend to ignore them or ignore them a lot. I think most of us can relate.
If someone likes you, they’ll be outgoing and friendly; if they don’t, they’ll subtly withdraw, displaying their true feelings.
So, most people aren’t fond of you if they respond to your conversation attempts with short, uninterested statements.
3) Message replies that are late
You are more likely to respond quickly when you like someone.

Developing a unique bond with them is something you look forward to doing since you love spending time with them.
Someone clearly doesn’t care about you if they often wait hours—or even days—to respond to your messages.
True, in a fast-paced world, it’s acceptable to miss a text every now and then. But when it starts happening frequently, it’s usually a sign of something more serious.
“Apologies, I’m just seeing this now. I’ve been so busy…” is just one of the many excuses people can come up with a week after receiving it. however, the reality is that when someone’s responses are consistently tardy, it indicates that you aren’t valued in their life.
Keep it simple.
4) Surrounding you with a lack of excitement
We tend to act more vivacious and enthusiastic when we’re in the company of people we enjoy.
Naturally, this is happening.
Now what happens when we dislike them?
As you might expect, most of us end up in the same boat as that one individual who is a true expert at playing the plastic card game.
Without meaning to, most of us will unconsciously show a marked decrease in energy levels while we’re in that person’s presence, subtly expressing our dislike for being in their company.
5) The art of nonverbal communication
When someone hates you, they will often show their feelings through a variety of unconscious body language cues, including avoiding eye contact.
To that end, focus intently.
After all, research shows that when we’re face-to-face, body language accounts for the great bulk of our communication.
When people cross their arms or lean away from you, it’s a sign that they are trying to close off their body.
Your presence may be misunderstood if the second option is true.
6) Hypocritical praise
The way some people convey their disapproval of you can be incredibly cunning and sarcastic.
“Backhanded compliments” refer to praise that is laced with criticism or a hint of subtle but cruel irony.
Perhaps they will compliment your style, knowledge, or classiness while adding a qualifier, such as “you’re a lot smarter than you look,” or “I love how you dress like you don’t care what people think.”
In the second scenario, they’re merely trying to be flattering when they really mean to criticize you… However, beneath the surface, their goal is to undermine your self-esteem in their own unique manner.
So, it’s likely that someone has given you a backhanded compliment if they often congratulate you but you never understand their meaning.
7) Ignoring your presence in group discussions
My high school pals and I are chatting in a group chat.
Even though I currently reside in a different nation from them, I am grateful to have a platform where we can digitally reconnect from time to time.
Naturally, not everyone in school loved me. I don’t know why.
Even after all this time has passed, these very same individuals still ignore me when we’re in group chat. Shocker.
Despite being very outgoing, social, and active in the forum, they will never respond to my messages—whether positive, negative, or humorous.
Where am I going with this?
The ezoic
In person or online, those who dislike you will try to make you feel unwelcome by omitting you from conversations in a subtle way.
8) No in-depth inquiries
If you’re related to someone or in the same social circle as them, that person may feel pressured to interact with you and may even act that way.
Because it requires work and investment—things they aren’t prepared to do—they don’t want to improve your relationship and make it more meaningful.
Therefore, they will refrain from probing you with personal questions on your background, hobbies, health, etc.
Rather, they will make an effort to keep things superficial, showing little interest in developing a more meaningful relationship.
Last remarks
The fact that some people dislike you shouldn’t bother you too much.
A person’s baggage and fears are usually at the root of their disdain of you.
However, you may want to reflect on your life choices if you’ve come to terms with the fact that you repel a lot of people.
Remember that you are not alone in your pursuit of perfection and that you must remain committed to your own personal growth.
As long as you maintain your direction, nothing can derail you.
Your very presence here indicates that you have taken a positive step. No problem.
