You feel that way because you not prioritizing yourself, learn to love yourself first, cause when you show yourself some love, it will reflect on your personality and this will help you feel better and those who really want to mingle or be involved with you will come on its own.

Your differences in beliefs and behavior might give you the feeling of rejection. We cannot avoid this feeling but we should learn how to get up and do not let it feel you down for so long that it affects how you socialize with others.

A lot of the times we place such a heavy emphasis in our minds about social relationships, and if one does not work out we feel that the onus was on us, and that we were neglected or rejected by someone. Sometimes we just need to take a step back, and try and push emotions aside, to really assess a situation.

Have you actually been rejected or neglected before? Is it possible that you expect it so you read things into what people say and do that might not really be there?

Rejection and neglect are hard feelings to deal with. Believe me, I understand. It's hard to give a detailed answer when I know so little about your situation however. I don't know if you are being actively rejected or simply feeling that you are. I don't intend to invalidate your feelings by saying that. Have you been actively trying to get closer to people only to be told "no", or are you not putting yourself out there in the first place? Do you radiate an open, welcoming vibe (through smiling, etc.)? Or do you look more closed off (head down, arms/legs crossed, staring at your phone, having headphones on)? If you look more closed off then I can see why people may not want to approach you, because they assume that you don't want to talk. Again this is just generic advice, I need to know more about your situation.

I think sometimes people feel that way because they have fear of rejection. By fearing something, you may feel as if you can never overcome problems. By keeping your head high on your shoulders and a little confidence can go a long way and grab people's attention.

As an extrovert I process my thoughts out loud so the experiences or the feelings of being rejected or neglected is everyday experiences. U feel these feelings based on the words I heard like ignore her she is like that you don't need to waste u time responding to her. She does not mind. The fact that u boss comes into the room and ignores u talked to your other colleagues. The fact that u observe how people gives more respect to u colleague than u. The fact that people seek u colleagues opinion even thought u 2 shares the same title. The fact that u colleague can send u around in a wild Chase to find something that is not true or to do her errands and u being could not say no and many more.

You could feel this way for a variety of reasons. Lack of self-confidence, difficulty feeling comfortable or accepted in social situations. But sometimes we are neglected by others, and that's difficult, but we can always choose not to neglect ourselves and our own mental well-being.

If you feel that you are being neglected maybe you should have an open conversation with that person and tell them how you feel. It is ok to express and talk about your feelings.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
