I couldn't have said it better than my telekinetic friend. I thought you were a girl, both by "bitch" and by the nature of your post.

Basically, quit trying so hard. My wife is the same way in some respects. She tries to be a stereotypical libra, always trying to make everyone happy. She tries too hard, thus she gives off a weird vibe and gets shunned. We all do it at some point, but there comes a time when you must claim your independence from all and let them come to you. Only at that point will you be accepted, and that is only because you set the original precedence. Think about the difference between the popular kids in school, and the kids that tried to be popular. It's along those lines.

The only difference between you and anyone else is probably that you make this a habit. That and if this has been since you moved close to your friend, maybe it's because he sees more of you than ever before, and it's a bit too much. Consider his point of view, not just yours.

It does when they've only been neighbors for 6 months.
