People and the problems I have with them

And when I say people I do not mean it in my usual sense. For once I am not talking about people as in "people"; as in a vast, seething mass of human beings I don't know. Crowds and the like. No, when I say people now I'm talking about every single human being on the face of earth. Because you see, I, also being human, am completely different from every other human on the face of the planet. But maybe I'm different in another way as well, a way that isnt explicitly human. You see I have trouble relating to other people, I can understand how people feel and what their motivations for feeling that way are but...I really have trouble contemplating why this is so.
See, I cannot deal with other human beings. They aggravate me, annoy me, sadden me, and I dont know what I can do to change it. Because everything is telling me it shouldn't do this to me, that I should be better, more empathetic, more human than I am. But the simple fact is I'm not. Have I lost something? Am I somehow less than any other person because of this? Or is it freeing in a way? Does my lack of connection to the desires and understandings of other people make me more capable?
I dont know anymore...what am I?
