No idea where to put this, but it's bothering me and I wonder if other people have the same thing happen to them.

I consistently get people telling me that I am weird. Not in a mean way, just in a ... I don't know what way. The people who tell me that I am weird to my face are the people who like me. The ones who don't keep their distance.

Anyway, I am annoyed because after all these years (approaching 40), I still don't really understand WHY people say that. They do not believe me when I ask them what I do that is weird and tell them that I don't understand. My boyfriend last night told me that I 'went out of my way to be weird' which is so far from the truth - I am trying to seem as normal as I can stand/figure out, but apparently other people think I am doing it intentionally????

Does anyone else have this happen? I don't really think there is anything I can do, the disconnect between what other people perceive as normal and what I think they see as normal seems to be quite vast.
