I know this is supposed to be funny, but I have to admit this one actually hurt a little.
I’ve struggled with this for most of my life. I know I have a tendency to take things more seriously than other people, and I wish I could explain how exhausting that can be sometimes.
It’s not that I don’t understand humor or that I can’t appreciate a joke. It’s that my brain immediately starts looking for the meaning behind things, questioning the implications, trying to understand why something is funny in the first place.
I’ve spent years wondering if there’s something wrong with the way I engage with the world. I’ve lost connections with people because of it, and there have been plenty of moments where I’ve walked away from a conversation wondering why I couldn’t just be normal and laugh along with everyone else.

Sometimes I just want to feel like I belong.
biggest part of ‘belonging’ is to just be yourself.
if you’re just acting the part you’re going to end up keeping up appearances.
