Hi, I'm new here, and I'm just wanting to be where I can relate to others. Outside of the web I just can't seem to get it right, even after studying human behavior for years(including a degree in Psychology), building scripts in my head from this study as well as from movies. Ever since I was little I was always an outcast. I remember that when the other kids would play pretend, it seemed to me like they approached each other and just started the game like magic. So I would start pretending to be a monster, or Luke Skywalker when I came up to the other kids I wanted to play with. I was then teased for years due to that. I was interested in electronics, science, and how machines work, I was bullied for that as well. The bullying continued all through school, I got in trouble for being bullied, reading past the other students, and for reacting to noises that hurt my ears.
I thought it would end as an adult, but alas it continued causing great hardship as I seem to not be able to work without some NT finding me a bother to them. The most messed up thing is that I go to work, do my job rather than slack off with chit chat, and I'm the one that gets in trouble???? 8O 8O I continue to be bullied at almost 34 years of age as well as still feeling like I'm a different species trying to reach out and communicate with the other kind.
:alien: :alien: :alien: :alien: Argh! it's so frustrating :(
I do apologize for my rant, and thank those who may listen.

I love Biology especially wetland wildlife related Biology. I also love certain eras of history such as the Viking age, and the same time period in the Celtic lands. So to any others who like the same things I would like to hear any information you have :D

Welcome to WrongPlanet!

Your rant is totally understandable. I highly doubt you'll experience bullying here, and there are many others here who have been bullied or are like-minded to yourself.

Hello and welcome from a fellow newbie. Please don't apologize for ranting. I can relate to being picked on, especially in junior high school..it was brutal. As for work, I'm not employed so that isn't a factor at the moment.
