I confess I'm used to people looking around me instead of at me. I am mentally unprepared to handle when someone notices my efforts. 33 years old and I've always been basically invisible.3

But you're married so someone looked at you...perhaps you're not as invisible as you think you are?
I grew up sort of kind of on stage...it was an ice rink but from a young age I learned about having all eyes on you...and it's still hard to accept when people acknowledge my efforts or talents. Why is it so hard to accept people's appreciation of us0 -

It's because you, aren't a; narcissist & thus, you're modest!0 -

I used to have a big group of girls I hung out with but one of them had a cheating boyfriend and asked me what I thought about it and I told her I thought she loved him very much but that he didn't love her that much and that was it.. I was out of the group and she lied to everyone, told them I said he didn't love her cause he didn't bring her flowers (WTF?) and the "group" split was so ugly as she and her best friend went out to destroy me and started telling the other girls lies about me and to my utter surprise, they all choice to believe them.
That was 6 years ago and now I'm way to scared to let anyone get to know me. I'm afraid I'm not good enough, that people won't like me, that I'm not funny or smart. And that hurts to confess and it hurts to feel like that.
So I just walk around with my back straight, my chest puffed out and my chin up, playing the confident girl so that no one will know how lonely and how closed off I am when in reality I'm in so much need for human contact and friends that I'm breaking on the inside. I just want a group of friends again to laugh with, party with, go to the gym with and enjoy life with but I just have my kids, my SO and my family but we don't talk much anymore cause I'm pushing them away as well cause they're nothing like me and we don't get each other.
And now I'm doing this NLP seminar and people there even believe I'm confident and sure of myself cause I'm not gonna admit to them that it's all an act. That deep down I'm so lonely and scared and in so much need of acceptance that it's embarrassing.
I completely understand this. I'm the same way.0 -

I love my husband to pieces... but he's never been one to comment on how I look, good or bad. 8 years together and it still throws me off when he tells me I look nice or something. Blessing and a curse, really, because I wouldn't know how to react if he did start saying something anyway.
As far as accepting appreciation... I don't know about anyone else, but for some reason the bad stuff is easier to believe. I'm probably not the only one that feels that way.1 -
