Insecure people, myself often included, believe they are disliked when overlooked or treated poorly. This is not usually the case.
Most people who you interact with, will have no opinion of you at all. After you leave their cone of vision, they will not think of you again. The small group of people who do carry an option of you after the present moment, are most likely friends.
If you sometimes feel disliked or overlooked, realize that most people do.
The average stranger is too concerned with their own problems to have one with you.
Their treatment of you is a reflection of their own mind, not yours.
Thinking of yourself as a problem because of an interaction with a stranger is unproductive. The best antidote to this feeling is honest investment in close friends. They will help you build self worth and if they are good friends, will discover areas of yourself only found from the outside.
Others peoples opinion only matters if you care about it, and you should only care about the opinion of those who care about you.
