It happens a lot that people dont like you if you dont share their views. This has happened often with me.

I don't think it's about sharing their views - it's the lady at the pharmacy counter, the guy that delivers groceries, the library lady. We don't share views. But somehow I did something wrong and I don't know what.

I know exactly what you mean.

Do you remember the part in "A Wonderful Mind" where one of Nash's "illusions" (the man in black) asks why he's alone, and Nash says something charming and ends up with "But the truth is that most people don't like me." That is such a *huge* moment for me. He's so handsome, so charming, so brilliant - and most people don't like him.
