not a guy here.. but just don’t revolve your life around getting validation from others. not everyone is going to like you, sometimes people don’t have reasonings. opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, but everyone shits out differently. when you revolve your life around others’ opinions, it can come off as desperate. guys typically like it when girls have their own personality & life outside of them (coming from someone who has several guy friends& this is what they tell me)
when you aren’t your own person outside of that relationship/situationship, you could lose yourself in the process & only see yourself in that person’s life & become codependent. a bunch of guys aren’t huge fans of girls being codependent. pick up a hobby, have your own friends, take accountability in the wrong or mistake (even when you don’t think you did something wrong, cause they may have a different opinion), have fun with your life, don’t revolve your every single minute life with the dude
