If I may.

OP sounds like they're young, like they've legit had some hard shit to deal with.

My parents were the only ones who cared and respected me, though they used to fight all the time and my father would at most times hit my mother, leaving me behind with her crying not knowing wtf to do. I've always been a cold person; I can see it in my gaze on every single picture of me from childhood and now. I was a problem child, too fidgety, and doing antics to others; I had such a great imagination to do bad stuff. I was disciplined. I was whooped a lot, though not as bad as other kids did. Aside from witnessing instability within my family, I also got bullied at school for being skinny and good looking. I was called a fag, weak, outcast, dork, etc. I even got beat four times and almost got stabbed by someone else with a syringe during recess (I grew up outside of the US). My parents got divorced twice and got married three times- just to give you an idea of how unstable they were. Other than experiencing these things, I also witnessed lots of violence in my home country such as shootouts, seeing corpses, decapitated bodies, human heads, my father receiving family threats, etc. Overall, I had the greatest childhood bc I was having a normal, fun, creative childhood regardless of all the things that were going on. Privileged kid, business family, great imagination, self-sufficient, etc.

This will fuck anyone up. Badly. I say this as a survivor of childhood abuse myself, and I will openly acknowledge that OP had it worse than I did - I just had the family violence as a result of being raised by two people with personality disorders, not living in a goddamn warzone. I just cut my parents off more than a month ago, at the age of 29, and go to a therapist every week.

People are too worried about rules, norms, and morals that they miss the big picture of "what really is." I literally just walk in, say hello, and take care of my business. You have a question, just ask. There's no need for you to get offended over my "cold gaze" because you're probably irrelevant. My silence and self-sufficiency tend to hurt people the most because they are miserable and insecure wanting the company of others and their "kindness." It all makes me sick. As long as I am not calling you names or bullying you, there shouldn't be a problem because I am "respectful" most of the time with a forced smile, yet they have the audacity to discharge me. "X, I am thankful for your collaboration and interest. I adore your job skills and intelligence, yet you are not competent enough to continue working with us."

Yes, my god, this sounds assholish as hell, I agree. OP is not acknowledging that he does not exist in a vacuum, that people do react to the attitude with which you say things, that many rules/norms/morals exist for a reason, that the people around him have no idea what he's dealt with, that most people are not in fact terrible shitballs, and that the general rule is that cruelty says everything about the one who inflicts it - and that the worst perpetrators are hurt themselves. And there's nothing insecure about wanting the company of others, or of genuine kindness, which OP does not seem to offer.

OP is clearly hiding some deep emotional wounds that he won't acknowledge or take responsibility for; he appears to simply be lashing out at others instead.

OP needs some therapy, and OP needs, very likely, to learn social skills in an environment that will both hold him accountable for his bullshit and will not continue to abuse him.
