Why do I feel that I am rejected or neglected by people?

The feeling of being rejected and neglected by people comes from not accepting yourself for who you truly are. If you feel as if you are not accepted by others or are often neglected, think "Do I love myself for who I am" and remember that you are loved, accepted, and great. Realize your self-worth, and that you are amazing and perfect just the way you are. Sometimes, feeling rejected and neglected may be because the other person is going through something as well and they are expressing feelings like rejecting and neglecting others to cope. Just remember that the end of the day, you are amazing and worth it.

Humans generally forms opinions on others quickly. They come to conclusions very fast without analysing the reality. In that process most of the times people blindly follow the herd or community opinions on someone. It means if some of them create a certain opinion on some individual, automatically majority of other individuals too blindly go with them. So we need to understand why those people label certain bad opinions on particular individual. It can happen beacause of two reasons the one is the fault in others. As judging an individual by his appearance or background or etc etc where that individual do not have any fault within them. The second reason is some communication glitches in respective individual. These two reasons will be accountable for getting a feeling of mass rejection or neglection from society. So in the former case the neglection or rejection is limited to certain people it won't escalated that rapidly. And by giving some clarifications from our side people do understand us and get along with us. But in the second case where there is some communication fault with in us. Then that problem keeps on reappearing again and again in any area if life. So in that case ,it's important to improve our communication skills. In all verbal, body language, diction, clarity in speech and selection of topics to discuss with others etc etc will tremendously improve our situation in communication field. So some amount of work needs to be done to self analyse where we are getting wrong. This practice will also nullify the former case of rejection/neglection from society.

I had this issue before finding a purpose, before knowing anything about myself. Once I came to inner peace with myself I started seeing life differently, And I was able to converse better with people, respecting them and doing my part. I had to be myself around other people. Doing my part, The rest is up to their character. "You can make people laugh, You can make them smile, But whether they are happy or not, Is their responsibility and their responsibility alone" - Will smith. And that's how I eliminated that feeling. I hope my humble experince would help anyone.

There is no certain answer as to why as it is based on personal experience and the relationship with others and yourself. From personal experience, I have learnt when I have felt rejected it was because I had put myself out there, I felt very vulnerable so when something I did or expressed wasn't accepted by the person to how I expected them to receive it, led me to feel rejected. I felt disappointed as my need to feel accepted wasn't fulfilled by that person. I realised it had nothing to do with them at all. It had to do with myself. Acceptance comes from within, not from others. When you learn to accept your vulnerability and presenting it to others, it will put you in a better place because you will no longer need the acceptance from others. So if they do not react how you may want them to, its ok because you accept that's how they are but also as long as you are happy within, the rejection isn't there. It's quite similar with neglect. If your needs aren't being met, it's not because of the other person involved. It is all to do with you. When you love and nurture yourself, you won't need anyone else to do that for you. That is the most empowering thing ever!

It is possible you may feel that way because of how you communicate with others or with which people do you communicate with. There are people who will pay less attention to you for whatever reason, but you should always be on the lookout for that group of people that will take you in as their "comrade" or good friend. If you think you are in a group of friends that normally treat you well but you feel neglected, let them know how you feel. They will try to listen and understand your situation and find ways to help you out. Communication is necessary to feel less neglected. Don't forget that you are in control of your life, and it is okay to leave certain toxic people that will purposefully neglect or reject you. Do what makes you happy and free, and make sure you have a voice in your group.

I had always been feeling the same as well. The best things to deal with it are: 1) Accept that not everyone is going to like you, but remember there is someone or even a group of people going to like you for being who you are. The uncontrollable laugh of yours, your awkwardness, your kind heart and anything. 2)Massively invest in yourself: from your appearance to your inner world. You don't have to buy trendy things in order to look good. It can be taking a shower every day, brushing your teeth, and kinds of stuff. As for your inner world, you can try reading, taking up/exploring your hobbies, going to parks and such. 3) Engage in more people without expecting to be their friends. In case you're introverted, don't force yourself on meeting new people in a short time. It can be as simple as accepting the invitation or visiting a house of your neighbour or acquaintance to leave them some flowers, fruits or bakeries you baked. 4) Leave toxic or negative people around if possible. Take some time out to evaluate your social circle. Are they good for you? Do you feel comfortable around them? If they are actively trying to tear you down, take a note about that in your heart and try to reduce the time engaging with them and eventually cut them out. Don't care if they are yelling at you for not being their friends anymore. You have got to cut it out since they aren't good for you either. Why should you being a doormat for them? 5) Don't compare yourself to anyone. Even the most popular person has their bad side to deal with. Be content with whom you are.

this could be anxiety. the feeling that the people around you dislike you or reject you even when you know that they do or they have told you before that they do like you it can be hard to believe sometimes. especially when it is our own brain telling us that people reject us or don't care about us. have you tried asking the people around you for reassurance. you should never feel bad for asking for reassurance, its something that everyone needs some more than others and that's normal. another thing that could possibly help is trying to tell yourself as well that people do care for you.

We feel this way because we tend to go after people who do not value us. We tend to always be chasing other things and forget to appreciate what we have right now. Sometimes, no matter how bad someone treats us we still stay because our emotions and love for them take over. We surround ourselves with people who are not a good fit for us just because we want to fit in with them so bad. Love comes naturally and you can not force anyone to love you or accept you. Remember that if they wanted to, then they will.

It could be due to an event that happened in your past or it could just be due to anxiety and/or depression. Many individuals have a feeling of rejection or being neglected because they have certain expectations about how other should treat them because they would be willing to do it for them. Being neglected by someone you love can lead to depression. Rejection is something where a person outright tells you that they do not want you. You know that you are no longer part of their life and you can chalk out your future plans alone in terms of recovery. But when you are neglected your mind is always thinking of the reasons why you are being neglected. It creates so much negativity in the mind that you start looking down at yourself and slip into depression. You start devaluing yourself and think that you are not worth. You stop thinking rationally. You do not share your emotions with anyone.

Because they don’t speak to me or spendtime with me as often as I would like which sometimes translates into “they don’t care about me” but I have to remind myself that sometimes other people are dealing with their own issues and maybe they are the ones needing someone to reach out to them too. Also when I am in a negative place, tunnel vision tends to develop and before I know it everything I think of is associated negatively, at that point I know that it is time for me to seek prefessional help because they can offer me tools to bring me out of that negative thought process.
