Hi all,

I’m a f28 moving to the area from work. I am not very familiar with Apple Valley/Victorville/Lucerne, but I am originally from the Imperial Valley area so I am familiar with the desert scene. The only company I will have with me is my medium sized dog. I was looking at renting in the Lucerne Valley area, but the commute is around 30mins, but I like the more rural areas? Maybe seems more charming? And safer?

Any advice appreciated!:)

Hello all!

I have noticed that upon meeting people, classmates, coworkers, general strangers, I get the vibe that they don’t really like me. I of course have close friends and family who do, but to the general public I think I am generally unlikable. I have noticed this trend over years, and tried to not have it bother me…But after years of trying not to care, I still do. Compared to my sister and brother, people are generally adverse to talking to me and are more likely to be rude to me. The same goes for my husband, people are noticeably more friendly to him, and generally tend to like him. It’s almost night and day how I see the general public react to him vs me. Even somewhere as simple as at the store.

I have analyzed this for a while, I tend to my hygiene, I fight my RBF and try to look nice and smile. I know a lot has to do with appearances, and I think my siblings are generally more objectively attractive than I am, but I maintain fitness and am not too shabby (I hope). I notice people are more open to me if I wear makeup also, so I try to do this on days that I feel like it bothers me. Sadly this has pushed me to even considering cosmetic procedures at times, nose job, breast augmentation, etc, just to look more like my sister ultimately.

What suggestions do you have for generally being more likeable? Again I have tried not to care, but it itches the back of my brain.
