eh, people don't ask me why, they just deal with me as they would or wouldn't.

All of my life...the only ones that didn't do it were my parents...because they were just like me.

It sucks. Most really don't want to know why and still they ask...notice that they normally tune you out after the first couple of sentences...basically I think they do it just to make themselves feel more superior and maybe make their own self-perceived flaws seem much more trivial in comparision.

I used to say,'I don't know..' But now I just say it's what I'm like, it's what I prefer.
