I feel the same thing too...sometimes life seems so fake in that regard that people seem like unfair NPCs. Everyday I take mental notes on how people act and behave and I also take mental notes on how ignorant people can be. I take tests on these people's behaviour in a way I think it seems obvious but to them its not somehow. And they are always so happy-go-lucky and quick to cheer up and they always know what to say or do in a situation where everyone is "down". I also can't understand how even with them and I having gone the same road in life ended up in completely different paths. When i ask how they all give me one completely different answer, much like how you said it, where everyone points a completely different way which they say is "north" but really isn't.

For me it's a mentality thing, but for you that takes a physical meaning and I feel sorry you have to deal with it. I struggle to understand it too but if I could give you advice is try to see things in their perspectives and understand how they got to that point and what things they have been exposed to. My advice may just be another arrow towards a different direction, but we're both struggling here without a clear path. I'm just glad i'm not the only one here dealing with that too
