How do you get people to like you?

People have always seemed to like me and I've never understood why, and I'm not being modest. I'm truly not a very social person but am friendly.

I think people mostly want to like each other, as long as you show interest in others and treat them with respect they will like you.

Well, if you're a bully that's not going to work. So look in the mirror and do a self-check. Clean it up and then be your new self.

I have never been a bully, but I have done things that if people knew about, they wouldn’t like me. If I were to be introduced to you, your impression would be that I was a gentleman and an all around nice person, but that’s not really the case at all.
 
If you want people to like you listen to them. Most people want to be heard. Listen and dont judge. Golden rule. Treat them the way you want to be treated. I look for things I have in common with other people. I try to be positive. I have lots of friends. You cannot have too many friends. Especially as you get older.

Many, if not most, have done things that other people wouldn't like. Including the other people.
 
There are those that will not like you, ignore them.

There are those that will like you, concentrate on these, they clearly have more brains.

I think I'll apply for that Agony Uncle job. 😊

If it's a man who clearly dislikes you and makes it evident, and you are a woman, then you can accidentally on purpose stand on his toes with your stilletto heal shoe, giving it a good twist, then flutter your eyelids and say, "Oh, I'm terribly sorry, I didn't see you there."
This is probably why I suffer so much with my feet. 😊

Warning though!!!!!
The above doesn't work if it's a woman standing on another woman's foot, because that's more likely to start WW3, or at least an angry catfight. 😊

I am not a bully, but there are things worse in this world then being a bully. Everyone’s heard the adage “You only get one chance to make a good first impression.” Anyone can fool anyone by cleaning themselves up and looking like a gentleman, but underneath, that person could be a serial killer. If you doubt me, look at Ted Bundy.

Bundy once said ‘Women are the weakest, dumbest people in the world.’ One of the Marshalls asked him why he would say that. Bundy said ‘Where else can you go and put a sling on and pretend you can’t get your suitcase into your car and a female will be the first person to want to help you, even if there are 10 men standing around.’
 
I love to meet new people and am very interested in their stories. It costs nothing to be friendly and many people have said they felt like they have known me from before. When I go to have a coffee, I always ask the girls their names and enquire about their day. Next time I see them they always come over and have a chat.
