Why can't anyone be proud of me? I never complain I have all A's, I put hours of my day into cleaning trying to be helpful, I always respond immediately, and I always pay for my own things so as to not be a burden. Not even one person can find something about me to love.

Bored
Sometimes Iām bored of this life. When I was younger I had so much excitement and life then you hit your late 20ās, people start settling down, sacking you...
I'd say, that an internet stranger who just read your post is proud of you. Proud that you've done so much in the background, who may not be immediately recognised.
That said, perhaps the desire for the affirmations of others is less needed. Perhaps you can be intrinsically and internally proud of your achievements and approach towards life. I know that getting A's and topping academic scores for me, was never actually fulfilling, even when I had the slightest recognition - but maybe that's not at all how you perceive things.
I don't know if you're catastrophising or focusing on negative experiences, but if you are, it helps to be aware that you're doing it. Otherwise, in due time others will find something to love about you. That is an absolute.
And since "not even one person" currently, in your life is proud of you, I am.
Kind regards,
Internet stranger
