this is the solution for everything just get a bigger hammer. make the peg fit yes that would be it. I feel like the peg more often than not, forced to do things i don't want to, the best way I can describe how I feel is..."When everyone is dancing, I feel alone in the sea of faces." Does this make sense to anyone out there. I can't fall in love or b ...[text shortened]... alone. does this make me a non conformist not by choice but by rejection. Is there a difference?

No one here or anywhere has the right to criticise you and try to tell you how to live your life!!!!! You post as much as you like and whatever you like!!!!!!! ooooooooh!!!!!! that makes me mad!!!!!!!!!!!!
even here I have been shunned to a point. often times, I like to read posts and respond to them, but recently have been told that my presence is disturbing and I am overdoing it I thought I was just blowing off steam since then I have been more selective with my posts.
Originally posted by elvendreamgirlWell, for me, relating to people is usually an intellectual effort--I have to figure out how it's done in most cases and consciously do it. I'm also not particularly charismatic or good-looking, so I can't take any easy way out.
I am wondering if alot of people have always felt outside the group?
I have tried to be part of things, but I have mostly felt like I didn't quite fit in?
I also like to talk about things, which apparently went out of fashion at all places other than RHP several decades ago.

Poeple a so foolish to judge on looks, but I suppose we all fall victim to that curse. I love the internet, though, where you are judged purely on your intellect.
I think you are a great person, chicken.

I don't know if judging people based on their intellect (for good or ill) is any more justifiable than judging them (for good or ill) based on their looks, but in most contexts where I care I'd rather be judged on my intellect.

Why are people so insistent that everyone conform? Why are we forced to follow rules that are ridiculous?
You are onto the basic understanding of our (homo sap) relationship to Chimps. The only reason we do anything is for recognition
Two chimp credits to you for recognizing a great truth that is so obvious that we almost never see it.

Is it possible to not conform though? As the old saying goes, we become our parents. We are molded and shaped according to our parents morals and beliefs and ethics, we are conforming to their lifestyle. even when we are older we tend to acclimate to environment that were similar to those of our child hood. if we fall out of our traditional norm we are still conforming to rules of society.
Will you dance with me dream girl, takes all the cookies and gobbles them right up except for one that ones for my kitty.
