I know the concept and have read about it.
Had to do with me. I had a hard time early in life. Nearest neighbor was 2 miles away, was not related to as a normal child, really. Dyslexia and no social skills for my age group was a real set-back. Never had a social group until Jr. High. Spent the first part of my life solitary, even when in school surrounded by kids, I was alone. I had my nervous disorder and other things I don't talk about.
I learned very quickly to tell people what they wanted to know. Things in my teens made it worse.
Blame is futile... you do what you need to do to make things happen for yourself. If I ever let other's opinions affect me in any way other than a challenge I would be dead. It is not an excuse.
We are all alone in our skin, I learned that from day one... day two, it is not so bad alone.
