I usually feel excluded whenever I attended a new school or when I enter into places where I don’t any one or have any friends. The most recent occasion was when I went to a large conference with people from all over, I knew no one there. I sat by myself and took in the presentation but did not speak or take part in what was being said. I felt very excluded and like I was out of my league. I’m not one to make friends immediately, so it was a very lonely experience for me.
