It's as simple as that but Alex is Alex, and he is his own self.

I've been a part of this site since gosh knows how many changes were made!

If I didn't like it here, would I stay?

Our mission has remained the same!

I don't understand most of the topics (or anything) or here.

:( I might leave WP for good because autistic people like me don't belong here.

Two possible solutions:

Ask more questions

-OR-

Start some Topics of your own.

That way hopefully you won't feel left out.

Yes, I often find some of the most popular threads to be very boring, too.
You need to find a niche, that's all. :D

Just like an area or group of specific topics that you enjoy.
For instance, I like the quizzes people find on the internet, and I often take them and post the results.
I also like giving advice.
People who enjoy the same things on WP will also do the same things, and we will post together.
I do have to admit, a lot of the stuff in love and dating I don't understand, either.

Why?

Is that because people go on and on?

If you take the time to notice, you will notice that particular members tend to lurk in certain areas. Since they all post in generally the same threads, they learm more about each other, then they are statistically more likely to make friends with the other people who post in the same areas.
Of course, this is based on my own observations, so I could be completely wrong, but it does explain why people sometimes get upset about the (non-existant, in my opinion) clique problem on WP.

I'm so sorry!

But that's just us, isn't it?
