Nobody will be able to accept who you are except yourself; if anyone would accept who you are, they are your parents. If you have been trying to get others to accept you, why not try harder to be who you are?
Or perhaps, start to accept others as who they are, hoping that they will accept you as who you are too.
Life is short, why not just learn to be yourself. We need to take care and love the people we love but to what extend that we need to become someone that they want us to be? How much we can sacrifice to let others to start accepting us? Or is it necessary to sacrifice in order to exchange for acceptance? Can't we just accept the fact that we cannot satisfy everyone, not everybody will like us and we cannot do anything about it. It is just a matter of attitude.
If we need to change ourself to get acceptance, are we being sincere to others? Do you expect people around you change for you? Would it be more scary if everyone is not being themselves?
Well, many may think I am being selfish, but who is not?! If being ourself is called selfish, then who is not selfish then?!
