Do you like everyone? Probably not. Just because people don't like each other doesn't mean something is wrong. You can even love somebody and want nothing to do with them.

Walk away, go home and enjoy your life. Block them if they're online pricks.
Move on, carry on, smoke a joint and pet a kitten or puppy or something.
The last time I and my surrounding people rubbed the wrong way, I asked why. I sought to see if something was wrong and at once they told me, even if in the second instance I was not informed. If there is no coordination, how they treat me is their doing. Years of being beat around would reinforce this. If the masses do something wrong, contrary to how many think of it, it doesn't become right just because they're the masses.
I go in assuming no one will like me and then I'm just pleasantly surprised whenever they do. Like, only 5% didn't like you? Not too fucking shabby, well done!
Well I dont like everyone, so I have to assume that not everyone would like me.
There's the old saying if you're not pissing someone off, you're not doing it right, also some people love to complain when given the opportunity, so take that with a grain of salt.
If the majority of feedback is good, then you're fine, fuckthem whinging pricks, you keep smashing it in spite of the 5%.
I’m too old to care. I like me and so does my family. That’s all that matters to me.

Do they not like you for things intrinsic to your being or for you actions? If the former their opinion should hold little weight, if the later proceed to step two.
-
Reflect on why someone of their perspective might feel that way about your actions and assess the merits.
-
If you feel after sober contemplation that their critiques of your actions were well founded, adjust yourself going forwards. Otherwise remain as you were.
If it is as low as 5% I'd imagine it reflects more so on where they are in their lives, having little knowledge of the situation.
Once you come to terms that most people don't like you, you just have to work backwards a bit.
It may sound a little silly but when I get good feedback on something, I pop it in my journal under a specific tag so I can revisit it from time to time.
It’s unfortunate that people are unfair to you, possibly they are younger or otherwise have incorrect expectations about your fallibility as a human.
I used to respond to things like that but these days I let the positive comments speak for themselves. Just remember to ask for feedback- a lot of people otherwise won’t do it unless they’ve got something negative to say.
"I, ShinigamiOokamiRyuu, like your way of doing things and send her best wishes."
There, you have a journal entry to finish the day with.
