So, you are saying that people should always feel what others assume is normal? If not, they have to change. What if the other person is really ok, more than happy, and satisfied with what he is feeling?

I don't see how you could take what I said as "people should always feel what others assume is normal".

Your initial post sounded super fucking optimistic (please tell me if there is a place I can exist) so I tossed out the idea that you could change your path.

I'm the last person who's going to tell you who you should be but at your age you should at least try out being different kinds of people. I tired being all kinds of people and I learned a lot from it. I still don't know who I should be in a very consistent manner but I'm also pretty comfortable with the way I muddle along.

20 year olds are dumb. They can't help it. They've done and experienced soo little, how could they be anything else? If you hide away on an island you won't grow much past where your are now as a person. That might be just the ticket for you, I don't know you.

Good Luck

It's true that 20-year-olds are dumb. I will try to live my life in different ways and experience new things. Thank you for the suggestion.
