Do you generally find it difficult to fit in with the people around you?

sometimes, depends on the group.

i don't communicate with people much, i just moved to the south and people down here do not like those of other faiths. i believe in Wicca and would much rather be quiet than to let people know. my neighbors come over like almost every sunday, sometimes during the week to ask if i want to go to church. so i just say no, but not too sure what to say if they ask why. anyways yes i find it very very difficult to fit in with the people around, especially when everyone around is against my beliefs and automatically assumes im a devil worshiper. even though there is no devil in Wicca.

Depends, if I`m around people that have similar tastes of mine I feel really comfortable, like people who likes comics, video games, I`m a bit nerdy hehehe

But normally I don`t find much people with that kind of tastes so I find difficult to fit too, I used to get stressed because trying to like people for a person who is a bit shy is harder, so I said one day, I got enough, suddenly I began to be myself, quiet, but being kind, always saying hello and bye and helping people as much as posible and I found that people answered to me very well even if I don´t say much words, people began to like me, and I prefer that way, but if I find a person that is easy to talk to or has my tastes, I become way more talkactive.

Don´t stress yourself trying to talk to everyone, but be always kind and helpful, people see that and will like you, at least that works on me

sure,it rather is. you will consistently be a gaijin. stay there one hundred years, and you will nonetheless be a gaijin. you will possibly be able to make close jap friends. Even a lover or better half. yet you will nonetheless be a gaijin. the type you will slot in relies upon on what hobbies you have and your jap skills. No jap and you have already shrink your self off from ninety 8% of the inhabitants. communities in many situations stick mutually on what hobbies them. Noh human beings dangle around the Noh human beings...

Yeah ever since 7th grade(last year) i have completely changed....I became self conscious with the way i look, i became kind of a loner,Started to care what people thought about me, My music style changed,it became harder to start conversations with my friends becasue they all liked ke$ha while i liked The Beatles....this school year im gonna try not to give a sh*t about what other people think of me :P

I know I do. I'm a single teen mom and although people my age are in college and moving on with their lives, it seems they don't understand. Maybe it's the new maturity level but it's just really hard to connect.

I have a hard time fitting in. I always kinda feel like I don't belong.

See the key is not trying your best then u won't have to try at all

No,not really,but sometimes I am just not in the mood for people and need my space.

I dont know, because i dont try to fit in.

yes, i'm a geek and most people around me are complete narcissic twats, and they even manage to fail at behing narcissic!
