    Could this be why I was rejected as a teenager?

    And BTW: One thing has changed in my mind/heart since then: I have developed care for others. So, now, instead of just wishing that 'I' would fit in, I am caring about other's pains and sorrows and joys and pleaseures, which has reduced my own need to feel like I fit in. That looking back I do...

    Could this be why I was rejected as a teenager?

    Hello from a boring clod

    A dullard, a gauche person, one who is socially inept and boorish, unsophisticated. That's my definition, I'm sure Websters, et al, will have different. : - )

    Hello from a boring clod

    Hello, I'm a 64yo male clod. I'm not officially diagnosed, but I self-check almost all the boxes in the list. Never wept over any one close to me dying. Even attended deaths of friends and been rather unaffected. Never understood how people could so easily 'know what to do and say' in this or...
