Everyone in school thinks I am bitter. How can I change their minds?

You can't change their minds, but you can change your mindset how you will start feel more satisfied. Once you achieve that, people who accepts you will start coming into your life.

If the school thinks your bitter try and start by just making one friend. If you know someone that is lonely, you can go and become friends with them. Once you have been friends with someone you will gain more and more friends.

When I hear someone state "everyone thinks"...I always wonder what the common denominator is...and try to put myself in their shoes. Killing them with kindness isn't just a cliche it really does shift your own moods and others around you. Smiles and kindness can be contagious. Perhaps instead of seeing negatives try to task yourself to see the positives or have an opposite reaction to your instant reactions...try to pause and be mindful to your attitude and outlooks :)

There is no way to change their minds, but you can change your mind about how you perceive your current circumstances. The most important opinion you have is about yourself, not about how others view you.

The only way that you can change their minds is with your actions. Sometimes the best way to change others opinions of you is to change your own actions. Try smiling, being kind, loving, compassionate and caring. Each day is a new day, don't give up!

Simply move on. The best way to proving you're happy, and satisfied with your life is to simply live it to the extent that you would actually be happy.

The best thing to do here is try to be more open and approachable. Ask some friends if you come off as bitter and then ask them why this is - or why you seem like that. If there are issues there which you agree, then perhaps take small step-by steps to alter that.

Perhaps involving yourself in social activities more will help if you don't do so already. It's kind of human nature to make quick fire assumptions against someone and getting involved more can help people to see the real you.

To start, how do you act around your schoolmates? Why do they think you are bitter? Being kind and grateful will help you with your schoolmates. Ask them why they think you are bitter. Don’t change yourself, just take feedback from your friends for example!

Managing other people's mind can be challenging. I believe that showing them your positive side will automatically change their perception of you.
