I wouldn't take that as a negative thing (again, not knowing more context). It sounds, as someone else said, merely like an observation. It's also personal to him. Probably some others find it easier to connect with you, some less. If you were more similar in some ways for some given X's, X=[x:x ~ culture, level of intelligence, religion, values, etc.], maybe it would be easier for HIM in particular. Connecting is a 2-way street.
You're not a failure. You're just so far from the median in certain ways, e.g. intelligence, trauma history, etc. that the number of people who are enough "like" you is smaller than for most.
You've been a great success lately in very important ways.

thanks impy. im sad because he's been the easiest person for me to find a connection with. he used to say before how alike we were and how he could easily talk to me for hours.
i though we had a connection too.
i know i've been putting up walls. we sit in silence a lot. so i think i've pushed him away. i didnt mean to.
