> Sorry to hear. But surely you have to agree that your introversion has handicapped you significantly in life? Not significantly. Yes, but which is the cause ? My personality or the standard people deems normal ? Not saying I'm normal, but maybe it's a chicken egg problem. There are tolerances and expectations at play. Oh and by handicapped I meant like introversion is overlooked as a mental illness, like lonely people are somehow retarded. > you can't really blame a school or employer for rejecting you if you refuse to learn to overcome your aversion to working with groups. I'm not blaming anybody, but at some point people have to learn about it and not just run with it like it's a standard. Also, higher education programs should not be meant to teach people how to work with groups. How do you really expect people to learn something technical by forcing them to socialize ?
