I read all of these and I see myself. I'm also an only child. I've never felt in touch with this world at all. What's more is that I feel time-displaced as well as world-displaced. I've always felt that the world I belong in was something like America of the 1930's. I love that era - the clothes, the cars, the all around atmosphere. Modern technology to me is a nuisance. But quite honestly, I'm lIke many of you on here - an only child and a loner who, even now in my early 40s prefers my own company. I'm not antisocial - I have many friends and even someone I'm interested in, but still I like being by myself. I write poems and short stories and I'm now writing my very first novel. I tend to live inside my head alot. No-one understands me, and I feel like an outsider I'm this world. Sometimes it depresses me to no end. But it's how I am, how I've always been.
I've always felt that I don't belong in this world, is this normal?
