It's just a bit frustrating, Phillipa. The sad truth are there are people who are easily liked by everyone they meet. People with good looks and effortless charm.
And there are people who swim upstream socially. Unattractive, lacking in social graces, social rhythm, etc. It's something our society doesn't like to recognize, and it's probably harder for people to discuss with those they care about.
But it's true.
Even my husband admits I'm socially challenged, and he loves me. Whenever I hold my own socially without sinking like a rock, he is sooo happy. He's one of those people who is easily liked.
Ah well. I know it's a hard topic for everyone.
My therapist says I have a beautiful smile that lights up my face. I don't. My mouth is way too small to have a beautiful face lighting smile. It's just something people say to the unattractive.
