Strange Famous

And they all say stupid stuff like how I am really funny or really sweet.

I'm guessing that what they are meaning is either:

a) "yeah, you could be ok, except you are kind of ugly and really pretty fat, so no thanks"

b) "well, you make me laugh, but at you not with you, I might have liked you when I was 18, but now I want a real man and the whole alienated, mad at the world thing is so passe"

I mean, seriously, I get on well with people, and I get on well with girls - I don't really have a lot of confidence and I don't meet a lot of new people. but I think nearly all the people I know like me, and I dont know of anyone who really dislikes me... I probably am not very physically good looking, but I mean, it could be worse, its not like Im freak show fat or that ugly, Ive got quite a few good female friends, and I make people laugh, I am probably at least as smart as average, I have a Masters and I got a First in my bachelor's degree - I dont have a brilliant job but its ok and I earn an ok salary, I have my own car, my own place, if I had to defend someone's honour I'd have a go, I used to box when I was younger so I can probably still fight ok... what Im asking is, how do I make people LIKE me as in maybe wanting to be with me, rather than like me as in thinking "oh, he's a nice guy, he's really sweet, or he makes me laugh, blah blah blah..."
