I really don't. And it is not like that I don't have anything to talk about. On the contrary, I am very knowledgeable in many areas from the history of chess to analytical number theory to giallo movies to another esoteric field. But whenever I talk to a person, I sense that he/she is not listening to me or he/she doesn't care about it much. If it's some kind of a discussion, I am usually sure that I cannot change his/her viewpoint, and same for him/her too. So why bother? Besides, there is this thing that I sometimes pause to find the best/most optimal words/phrases and person's interest is easily shifted to something else at these points.

Sometimes I feel that I am the outsider even among the other outsiders, and think of totally immersing myself in doing the things (often solitary) that I enjoy and speak only when I have to! But this attitude probably will make others dislike me even more, right?

    It sounds to me like you might be autistic. I have been like that too in the past and I had to learn the art of conversation, while it comes naturally to others.

    Find people that you find worth talking to.

    You need to indulge in a different type of intercourse.

    Talking is overrated if your not a feely or needy person. In my experience the people who talk the most often talk the loudest and have jack shit to say.

    Okay, thanks for the comments, but I have decided that it's actually normal to not want to do anything with these ... people. I will go on my way and create something completely original because I am very intelligent.

    It's a shame they don't interact better. Maybe you could learn to better interact with them though?
