You know,

I think it's a perception. An acquaintence saw me the other day and I said something quite dryly to her. I always thought she hated me or thought that I was strange. She laughed hysterically and said something like "haha, you're one of the funniest people I know." I was taken aback, I thought she hated me.

Maybe we just have extremely skewed perceptions , and there isn't anything 'wrong' with us in how the world sees us, only in our own perceptions? Or, maybe everyone else gets the same 'reactions' from others, but because they are self-validated and sure of themselves, they don't have problems with it? Just a thought...
