Why don't you listen to music? I'm not saying you have to because if it's not your thing it's not your thing. But there's music everywhere. At sporting events, in shows, even in elevators. So you must hear it sometimes. What about this instance made you feel disconnected

It’s not that I dislike music, I simply don’t ever feel the need to listen to it. It can play in restaurants, malls, friends can play it in the background (all though if the music is too loud and I can feel it vibrating it makes me extremely uncomfortable and makes me panic - not sure why)

I guess I felt distant because I realised that music is part of his world, and I felt like I take that away from him - all though he said that’s not the case. I simply can’t relate to people listening to music.

I used to listen to music when I was in high school - around when I was 14. I listened to Avril Lavigne, Billy Talent etc. It was towards the end of my high school that I stopped listening to music simply because I felt no need for it.

Are there other things people do that you can't relate to but that don't give you this feeling? For example I have friends who play video games. I do not. I don't relate to their conversations. But I still listen to them talk about it and I don't feel distant
