People in my local village and town used to be very friendly with me, often chatting etc. Of late, people seem to avoid me suddenly, or just give me a few brief moments of their time. I can't seem to get on the 'inside' of any group. Am I paranoid? Has the social climate changed. Is there some odd rumour or gossip that has spread about me (I don't live a remotely outrageous or scandalous life). Is it that I'm older and more grey and not as girly looking so not as approachable?. When I go to another town or village, people treat me more normally. It makes me think that a rumour has spread or something. I'm very happy in my life, with two ds's which I adore, a rough diamond partner, and a house I love. Are people envious. I wish I knew what was going on?
