[Margaret Pilkington]

The forum is like a conversation in general.
Conversations meander, but often get back to the point in some strange way.
Like Dotti, I have never come across anyone who doesn't want to be liked for some part of what they do in their lives.
It is what motivates many to do the things they do....and become good at.
We learn this behaviour as children, and continue it because it makes us feel valued.

If you go out of your way to be disliked then I have to conclude that you are a very sad person(and I mean this in the emotional sense...rather than the insulting sense) and if this is the case I do feel really sorry for you.
You must have missed out on some of life's most wonderful and satisfying experiences.
