I m a free spirited person ,but in this small condo I can't fit in . I don't enjoy bingo or and I don't know these people ,every attempt has been thrown back in my face. I enjoy reading dressing up my iPad and family I'm 67 and I want to live sat peace instead of looking like the enemy any suggestions? I have tried speaking to them smiling and helping when needed. I have this problem mostly with the ladies. I consider myself to honest compassionate and a kind person. However I'm not ready to dress and act likeIm finished living and thinking for myself. Not belonging to the so called click is annoying but not devastating it's like they want me dead or conform to their ways.

Hi sweetbonez,
I'm sorry to hear that. It can feel alienating when we don't seem to fit in with a group. Do you have a family member that suffers from BPD?

Hi Sweetbonez,
I’m sorry you are feel you don’t fit in, but it is early days and these things can take time. Finding common ground is a good place to start fitting in. You all live in the same place, what other common ground, interests are there ?
