Things we do to fit in
"When I was fifteen," writes No3L, "I curled up in a Budgens trolley while someone pushed it through the supermarket doors to nick vodka and Benny Hedgehogs, just to hang out with my brother and his mates."
What have you done to fit in?

No fella
It's not a question of being average, it's a question of other people growing up and learning to accept difference. It would be reasonable to surmise that you are either that weird you just haven't found your niche yet, or you have no concept of social skills. The most important thing I found, is to relax, don't try and force anything, and just let it be. From what I can tell you're trying to project a forced image of yourself- as if you're being contrary for the sake of it. Which may be why you're not exactly the social butterfly. And what you interpret as smugness, in my case, is far from it- a gratitude that I was intelligent enough to be able to pull this trick off. There are still lots of places I don't fit- dance clubs, chavs at bus stops, or dogging groups in car parks. I just avoid these like the merry plague. In short mate, you need to get out there and let life happen rather than force it.
