Is it normal to feel rejected from society?

I do not feel I have any true friends. Additionally, whenever I see people enjoying their time with each other, I feel a mix of hate and jealousy as I cannot experience what they are experiencing.

    You haven't been outright rejected I think, you just haven't found a place where you belong.

    I agree with Short. The key to making friends seems to be having an activity you truly enjoy that can be done with other people. Then you interact, hopefully with a fair number of people, and end up finding people you are comfortable spending time with. But you have to be willing (and so does the other person)to make the effort that friendship requires. I have a friend who fails to value our friendship just because I am not a peer. He always makes friends with people older than him, but hides those friendships because it's his peer group he wants to make friends with. But when we try to help him see what his peers might object to about him, he refuses to make changes. I'm sorry, I want to say, but if you insist that hand washing is bad for you, your peers may be repulsed by your grubby hands. If you make odd statements or use unusual humor, it will cause people to be standoffish. So if people who are nice to you give you advice, that is generous of them and you should consider their words. It could be the key.
