How do you deal with people who do not like you?

even if you do not like a person you should still be nice and respect them, because when you fight fire with fire it just makes a bigger fire.

I could always sense the animosity in the air as someone looks at me like a alien from another world because of my no nonsense looks and stance.I have learned from my experience that people don't tht much like sophistication.To them it means honesty,dicipline and sincerity which they find very hard to be adepted with.Well I just go my own way whether I am liked or not.I am happy with the quality people who like me.

Hello kalav56 , my answer may sound rather stupid to u..but so far I have not been able to work out any strategy for dealing with people who I sense do not like me..I usually try to avoid such situations when I shall be confronting those people..or if at all we come across, I become very introspective & reseeerved in such person's presence so that interaction is avoided.have a nice day,....bye

It sometimes happen in the workplace when there are conflict of ideas. Sometimes, I try to be diplomatic so as not to aggravate the situation. If I feel that someone doesn't like me or hate me, then the best way I think is I'll just stay away to avoid friction or treat them nicely.

I do feel it on some people. In such cases, I do the same as what you do. I do not really mind such person or people. If they do not like me even without reasons, then it is up to them. After all, I have done nothing to harm them. I am a friendly person. But of course, I do not force myself to someone that does not like me.

I basically ignore them and tell myself that they are not supporting me or anything so who cares. I feel that people dislike other people because, they grudge them for something they wish they had.

When I am able to sense that a person has a dislike for me I would try to the maximum to avoid coming into his way .The best is to keep awy from such a person rather earning his displeasure and then brooding over the entire situation and thus making the atmosphere a hell for ourselves as well as for our family.

smile to them .never let them you hate them.never let them know that they can make you anger.

None of us is perfect,we all make mistakes,, I would rather find faults in myself,,before coming to any coclusion,, staying far is a good choice,, another formula I like is to find out what the problem is,and find a solution to it,,and this only comes out after a DICUSSION,,If I can't change the other person,I know I CAN change myself,,

It is really very awkward to be on this kind of situation but as human we cannot do anything abou it but face the fact that at one point in our life, we will meet someone who dislike us. I usually handle this kind of situation as calmly as possible. If I have to work hand in hand with a person who don't like me, I often do the best that I can to do my part. I just hope he/she won't pissed me off meaning he/she won't make things harder on me and would expect that he/she be fair in treating me. I don't want us to be friends but I want us to do what is expected of us to accomplish. When it comes to people who I don't work hand in hand and I feel that he/she doesn't like me then I think I will also do the same as you do - that is to avoid this person.

i have experienced something like that before. well, what i did was, said something nice and then after that never talk to the person again. well, if they ask me something then i would answer but that's all. i never really want to get close to people who dislike me even in little ways. i stay away from them too, there are still more people that i can become friends with.

hello kalav i think that first if i have provoked dislike in another person and if the person is a good person than i will try to sort out all problems to restore things to normal.and if the person who dislikes me has his own set of reasons for disliking me than i will stay away if that person if insignificant for me.if you are confused that the other one dislikes you or not than leave it to your heart as it always speaks the truth.if you dont like that person stay away and stop worrying that he likes you or dislikes you.now i request you to keep smiling as it will remove away all dislikes from anyones heart.

show you doesn't like her/him. being plastic towards person you do not like is a crime, be true to your self this is the real thing. you doesn't like her/him. then be prank.

you cant avoid people to do things which you dont like.. bcoz all of us have different personality.. at first it maybe hard to sense their personality but as the days goes by you will find out.. you dont have to judge once personality as every people are unique... what matter is they dont hurt you or hurt other people... its on the matter of acceptance and understanding...

Like you, I stay away too unless that person was a very close friend earlier. If that's the case, then I will try to talk and see what the problem is and if it can be rectified. Otherwise, I'm fine with people not liking me. Sometimes, it's mutual...both of us don't like each other and we stay away. Sometimes, it's only one way...I don't like them or they don't like me. Either ways, I stay away. If I don't like them, I make it clear that I do not want to spend time with them....I might be cordial...but that's the extent to which I will go. If they don't like me, I'd expect the same from them...to stay away and not pretend to like me and then turn around and talk nonsense...or worse...stab me from behind!As long as they make it clear to me that they don't like me (I don't even need to know the reason), I'm fine and not at all sensitive in that matter. The way I see it..you like some, you don't like some! Simple as that!

Hi Kala! I find that you have already received so many responses to your post, because this discussion of yours figured in 'Mylot digest'dated 2-8-2009. Now back to your question, I try to be polite and humble with every one I meet, however, I've offended any one and I come to know about it, if possible, I try to clear my position, I would iron out the misunderstanding, if any. If it is not possible to clear him/her the exact position or my stand, I try to take the things easy. If other fellow's behavior towards me does not change, even after me not highlighting the issue, I start avoiding that person, as you have stated.

Hi Kalav56, Many years ago my husband iinvited his friend and his girlfriend round to me place for dinner and from the word go she did not like me and yes I sensed it, I go with my gut feelings always, and she didn;t hide it either, and later we all went out for a drink, ther she just ignored and then when she went into the ladies room I followed her and asked her outright why she disliked me, and she just wouln't say so I told her the feeling was mutual and walked out, that was many years ago and yet eversince then up to today, she sends me Christmas cards she is married to y husband friend and has two children, I haven't seen her but she never forgets to send us cards, strange women.

Hey, Well if I know that someone doesn't actually like me, I just don't hang around them. Actually I don't really talk to them that much, because they don't talk to me. If they don't talk to me, I don't see why I should talk to them. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Hi kala, it happens many a times when you dislike a person the very firt time you meet him/her. In my case this feeling has always proved right, when I have later , after many dealings and interactions with the person have felt that my initial feeling was right...I am not saying here that first impressions are right, just a few exceptions where the feeling has been strong. It may be the same for someone else about me...i am able to sense it and try to keep away or ignore the person....I feel that, that is the best thing to do...I have not had many such experiences but people do not show their feelings and pretend to like you- in certain ways and instances ,their dislike for you comes out openly, probably without their being aware of it...But again ,in some cases , because of my liking for certain people I have pretended not to have noticed this and carried on ...Happy Ugadi kala, have a great day

i would stay away with people who don't like me. i know we cannot please everybody and i've never been someone not to like people but i do know this happens. if someone doesn't like you you can just doing what you had been doing all along as long as you know they're right and you are not hurting anybody. maybe the issue is not myself but that other person...
