NTs who hyperfocus on quirks

Post Reply New Topic

I hate when people hyperfocus on my quirks. It often happens when I try to explain things to people. Instead of people focusing on my message they hyperfocus on the way I word things.

I often coin new terms because I don't know what terms other people would use. They just focus on how "cute and unique" they are instead of the actual meaning. When I find out what terms people use, I use them instead of my neologisms.

I've always been self-conscious about the way I word things. I often spend hours and hours trying to figure out how normal people would say things that pop up in my head.

this happens to me so much and i hate it. i try to teach people things and they think im different and dont focus on what the heck im sayin.

Yah - I have my own full version of the Englsih language, a much more logical version.

Only in the English language do you:

"Park your car in the driveway"

and

"Drive your car on the parkway"

People around me seem to have gotten used to the way I speak but I still do get a few smiles from others when I do.

At my school. This. BIG TIME. I had enough with it.

Some kept saying I get a special treatment. HELL, no one said I should be treated as. Despite that I kept telling them not to, yet they still do. If one of them give me a failing grade for something reasonable, then no problem! I wont complain. But nopes, they didn't. Instead, they kept threatening me to get rid of the special treatment. Why is that?? Who seriously told people to treat me any differently? I asked them why, they all just kept telling me that I'm "smart", "pretty", "unique", etc. -.- They never paid attention to what I said.

Being silent, and shutting up about everything even didn't worked out last I checked.
