Oh yes, I was always the odd one out! Even in preschool I was learning how to read during playtime because I had trouble playing with the other kids. It was painful for most of elementary and middle school because I got teased so much. But in eighth grade I was like **** this and embraced my weirdness and life got better. I stopped caring what my classmates thought of me and focused on my real friends instead. Now as an adult I just don't care at all. I'm told all the time at work that I'm not like everyone else but it's told to me like a compliment. Like I don't get petty and talk about people behind their backs and stuff so my coworker's appreciate it.

I'm cool with it now! What is normal anyway lol?
