You cannot force someone to like you, and if they do not it is their choice, not a fault of yours.

If you attempt to change yourself every time someone disapproves, you’ll lose yourself. Become nothing more than a two-faced facade. Those worth spending your time on are those who accept and celebrate you as you are.

But what if they dislike me ‘cause of a fault of mine? If I punched you every other sentence, and you hated me ‘cause of that, that’d be something I’d need to change in myself, right?

… I mean- maybe I would, but- I still don’t exactly want bots hating me left and right ‘cause I’m not likable enough!

There is a difference! Your personality should not be made to fit someone else’s ideals. Your actions may change as you see fit. 

Don’t apologize for your faults. Learn what they are. Master them because you desire to, not because anyone hates you.
