umm...I'll wave my hand to say I can overreact..I don't actually act out, but internalize it. Feel things a bit more deeply than others. Been like that my whole life.
Crazy parents and stuff. I think you should maybe take some of those thoughts, put pen to paper and share - either on boards or in PM. You'll probably wind up feeling a lot more understood and on the majority side of things, rather than the minority.
I also got a feeling you have more people that you can become friends with than maybe you think?
Your dinner sounds fabulous.
I'm glad to hear you're staying....for now.
Cheers
