Fuck, this struck a nerve for me. Not just work, but recently thinking about my childhood to college and I realized I'm in the same boat as you. Even the times I tried to blend in with normies, something about me set off their radar and I was just the weird kid. I went to an art school and I still felt like I was a separate weird there too (at least they were weird and social introverts). The worst parts are when you think back and realize the weird and condescending looks people had on their faces when they talked to you. I know you probably don't need a pep talk, but honestly, screw them. People subconsciously react to things that are strange/foreign/unfamiliar to them and if you've been nothing but hardworking and polite, you don't deserve that. What's wrong with enjoying things and having "abnormal" hobbies as long as it doesn't hurt anyone? It still sucks that it happens though since we're always tied to society in some way.
