Hello /adv/. The last year and a half has really taught me how unusual my upbringing was, and I'm having a hard time fitting in to normal society. I grew up in a commune, and only really got a full dose of the outside world since moving to college, and frankly it's weird and scary.

How do I learn to be more normal, or at least learn to better relate to normal people? I'm tempted to drop out and go back to where I came from. I just have so much difficulty relating to people here.

show interest in other people and their lives. ask them questions. share some of the differences you have in your upbringing.

Personally liked it a lot more than where I am now. Less personal space, but it didn't feel as necessary. It felt like everyone was one team, rather than everyone for themselves. Lots of sharing.

Actually, on that note, that's one of the strangest things to me. People have locks on everything now, and even if someone has something they aren't using, it's still expected that everyone else would just leave it.

I try, but I just feel like I'm from an entirely different planet.
