Thanks for the encouragement.

I think you're right DIMF, if I'm going to make meaningful friendships I'm better off finding people whom I relate to more easily.
It's just so discouraging, all this negative feedback I get from people. Even colleagues, who one would think would relate a little more easily to me.
But, I don't want to stop trying though, I know it can't be possible that 100% of people would reject me.
