I think awareness helps alot with these kind of issues.

It's not about people not liking you. It's about the implication of this fact which is that you might be a bad person. Are you a bad person? Or are you a good person which happened to have a behavior which turned others against you?

Second, is good to meditate on this idea of the image you are trying to keep consistent with everyone. It's almost like slaving away to make all people like you. But that's impossible because whatever you do someone might think you're an asshole anyway.

So just focus on being a good person in your eyes and the rest will follow. And be kind to yourself, we all make mistakes.
