Unusual Specimen

Humans are social animals. That much seems apparent. Genetic diversity, though, is a powerful thing, and there can be variation even in what are otherwise central characteristics of a species. Based on results, I am apparently an aberration in terms of lacking some key capacity that would allow me to interact successfully with other human beings in families, friendships, romantic relationships (most definitely!!), organizations and groups (clearly), and societies and governments (as the many who've dropped me for my political/social postings could attest). Unfortunately I did not also lose out on the genetic capacity to desire such interaction. I suppose as long as I am aware of my limitations, I can adjust my expectations.
