More than a physician

I went to the doctor with my mother the other day. We have a PA that we always go to, and have for years so we know each other pretty well. We're even on a first name basis, he's Ron. 

After the obligatory small talk, he asked me if I have very many friends. I was super confused as to what he meant, but I reluctantly responded that I did. 

He then asked if I felt like a lot of people understood me, and I was confident that very few do.

The advice he gave me was this: You're not everyone's type Megan. When you go to school, don't expect to fall in easily with everyone. You're different, and it's a good thing. I'm the same way. Just don't let yourself feel let down when you feel like no one understands you. It might just be that no one understands you. That's great, because when you find someone that does you'll know it, and you won't worry about how you're gonna let them in. They'll already be there.

Lately, I feel like no one understands me.
