So I remember how awkward it was, sometimes nobody wanted to be with me

I was always hoping to have many friends when I was in school. I dreamed about hanging out with them, but never really had that chance. But then college came around and I started making many friends... but I disliked keeping up with everyone, so I went back to being alone again.
I think there are advantages to being alone, as well as being with others.

@Gaiia I think most people would wish to be popular. I know I did. But I guess I changed my mind thereafter.

@LookingForSomethingNew the reason that doesn't work for me is that I'm too much of a loner to enjoy popularity, to enjoy following others or being followed, I often need space, so yeah, while I may enjoy inspire others, I don't like "popularity" itself

@Gaiia I see. It sounds like you realized that about yourself earlier on. That's good :) It took me a long time to figure out the same.

No. Every time I was cruelly excluded, ritually excluded and told to get out I was glad to be away from the group.

So much of this makes sense to me.

It's a hard lesson for some kids to learn. If you want to be in a group you've got to fit into it. Not muscle or annoy your way into it.

I am sorry Gaiia. I understand the need for space but when you feel like you don’t fit in, it’s such a crappy feeling too.

@iamonfire696 yes it's tough
