Why Have People Been So Hateful Toward Me?

Question

I used to look pretty dull,I'm not saying I'm all gorgeous now or anything..but more people seem to be finding me attractive than before. I have lost weight, my hair looks better,my makeup looks better, my clothes look better. Nowadays I usually wear more expensive clothing like armani and coach. Ever since I've "transformed" people have been treating me like I'm some stuck up rich girl or something--at least that's how it feels, whereas before these people were pretty nice. NOTE: These are just random people in stores, restaurants,etc. I have not changed my personality, I have only changed my look. Why do you think these people are treating me so badly?

Answer 1

Because you ask absurd questions like this

Answer 2

Have you ever thought about how you come across to them? Sometimes when people who previously had self-esteem issues about their physical attractiveness, change their appearance and notice that other people see and approve of the change, it gives them a new sense of self worth to the point that it goes to their head and they become a little cocky and arrogant without realizing it. Now I'm not saying this is, in fact, the case with you, as I don't know you. You could very well just be encountering some rude people. It's just that, sometimes, when people start receiving positive attention from others that they've never received before, it gives them a good feeling and they may start to believe in their good qualities a little too much, to the point that they unintentionally come across as being a little snobbish. They also sometimes become hooked on the good feeling this new positive attention from others gives and may come to think everybody they encounter should see them this way as well, and, therefore they come to expect this type of attention from everyone they come across. Then, when this doesn't happen, they may take it as somewhat of an ego blow and believe it is someone's way of being rude to them. Now once again, let me say, I am NOT trying to accuse you of being one of these people. I've been where you are and I'm sure you've just found new confidence in yourself and don't, by any means, think you are better than anyone else. I'm just saying sometimes it can be hard to see ourselves in the way we are seen by others and it doesn't hurt to take a step back and think about it. Congrats on feeling better about yourself and good luck to you.

Answer 3

Nobody gets treated like that unless they are giving out attitude!!

You need to look at what you are emitting yourself!!

Answer 4

Do you like the changes that you made to yourself?  Don't worry about what other people think.  Be confident in yourself.  You'll attract the positive and self confident people if you feel that way about yours self.  If you have low self esteem people will sense it.  Don't let them.  Good luck and have a great day.

Answer 5

well i hate to say it ... but alot of people base others on look alone ... when you change so does your enviroment .... if ur used to an old one .. then all you can do is slowly mould to the change ... whatever you do though ... try to maintain yourself as much as possible .. you will be happier that way

Answer 6

People are EXTREMELY superficial.  When I wear black people act afraid of me.  When I shave and look younger people treat me like I'm a retarded child.  People are very finicky and the way they treat you will hardly ever have anything to do with who you actually are.
