When I say they

I was thinking about my social life and I've noticed that some of my friends think it's weird that I like to hang out with people who are considered to have difficult personalities.  I have always gravitated toward people who are a little bit unusual.  Like slightly off from society's expectations of behavior, but not like they are doing anything bad, but maybe a little unconventional, maybe they just talk a little bit faster or louder or maybe they over share sometimes or maybe they laugh at unusual times or stuff like that.  I always learn from them and I'm inspired by them too.  They have a way of being fearlessly authentic and expressing their ideas that I admire.  And when I say they, I also mean myself, because I'm the same way.  I wasn't really taught social skills as a child so I had to learn them.  Sometimes I can be awkward.  I've learned to blend in with people by being quiet and cautious.  But when I'm in my purest form, I'm a little weird haha.  Most people don't know that because I hide it.  But when I'm with others who are a litt different like me, I feel more comfortable just being myself.
