It’s okay to feel sad when people don’t like you, it’s like being left out of a game you really wanted to play.
Imagine you're playing with your friends in the park, and suddenly someone says, “I don’t want to play with you anymore.” At first, it hurts, maybe even makes you cry. But just because one person doesn’t like you doesn’t mean everyone else won’t. You can still play with others who are happy to be with you.
Sometimes people don’t like you because they’re having a bad day or they’re confused about something. It’s not always about you, it might just be that they're tired, or maybe they’re mad at someone else.
You don’t have to be liked by everyone to be happy. Think of it like this: You can still eat your favorite snack even if someone doesn’t want to share with you.
What if no one likes me?
That’s okay too! Even the best players in a game sometimes feel left out, but they keep playing anyway. You can still have fun, make new friends, and maybe even show those who don’t like you that you are happy just being you.
