Am I doing something wrong when not everyone likes me? I want everyone to like me, and I try not to offend people, yet I have people that don't like me.


One of the goals every Christian should have is not to offend others. However, we all can offend without even knowing that we are doing it. The important thing is to do what you are doing and strive not to offend anyone. It is also important to realize that not everyone is going to like you - no matter what you do or how you live your life. Some people just want to be mean. Notice what Jesus said about this:
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, "He has a demon." The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, "Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners." But wisdom is proved right by her actions.
(Matt. 11:18-19 NIV)

Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.... But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
(Luke 6:26-28, 35-36 KJV)
You will always have those who do not like you, and if everyone does like you, then you are most likely doing something wrong!
