The world is generally an intimidating place for me, because I lack qualities people expect others to have such as charisma, and it is filled with offensive odors and noises that assault my senses. Usually I am worn out, when I get home. I generally have to take a nap, but before I do, I have to change my clothes and wash the 'odors of the world' off of me.
Recently I found a place, where I feel comfortable, and where I am respected, so it is definitely possible to find one's place without being a charismatic extrovert.
I'm naturally drawn to things(not people) and noticing details and patterns in them. This makes me excel at reverse engineering, fabrication and repairing anything mechanical. I'm also artistic.
I generally find people mysterious especially ones that are my gender (female).
My weak point is socializing and making friends. I'm able to make friends and have a few, but it takes a long time. Most people seem to misinterpret my quiet disposition. I've been accused of being intimidating and indifferent a lot.
