Birdcrazy...I think everyone is odd including myself!! I think being genuine, and kind and loving, and treating others the way you would want to be treated speaks for itself whether you are socially challenged or not. You will attract the same kind of people. I am very shy in social situations and have found that if I look around and search for that one person sitting by themselves and plant myself next to them, we hit it off pretty well. They usually wind up being just as shy as I am, and just as fabulous!! Then I just keep adding to the group. I'll get up, invite another person sitting alone to join us and so on. Next thing you know you are surrounded by shy but fabulous people, and you can just be yourself!!!!
