Thanks Avarael, Drew and Angel. I guess I'll see how it goes.

Lucky Strike, I didn't know the girl. I think she was in year 8 when I was in year 10 or 11. It wasn't exactly grief I guess, more shock/panic/uncertainty.

By shock I mean, other people were shocked. I was unfazed. And thanks.

There was this time in a school assembley where the talk was about breast cancer, and the teacher at the front said "In some cases it can lead to amputation of the breast".

There were about 840 people in that room, and only one of them laughed.

Guess who.

Sure.

One of the reasons is cause I've noticed over the past few years that I behave differently to other people, like I have to learn how to react to things such as grief or friendship.

For example, in high school a girl got hit by a bus right in front of me and I didn't react at all, nor did I honestly really care if she died or not. Everyone around me was freaking out and I had to pretend that the same was true for me. I didn't really feel anything.

For friendship, most of the time I'd much rather be solitary but since I'm in college you can't really help but join groups of people.

A similar thing happened in front of me when I was about 14, I was waiting at the school bus stop and I saw someone get hit by a car (silly sod jumped out of the bus fire escape and landed straight in front of the car.) Everyone else rushed over to see if He was okay, I on the other hand just looked on. I didn't feel a thing, I then just casually walked over to the next bus that came along and got on without a seconds thought as if nothing had happened.

My friend was actually laughing about it as we sat on the bus, (Don't know who was worse, Him for laughing or Me for being completely neutral about it.) I certainly didn't find it funny, but I didn't care either.

Laughing at something doesn't mean one finds something funny. Laughter comes as a form of shock. Your friend probably just didn't know how to react.
 
I do the same thing when I hear bad news - I smile and sometimes crack up laughing. REALLY doesn't go down well anywhere. Ever.

Worst time was when I had to deliver the news to someone that a mutual friend of ours had been killed in a car accident before Christmas. She thought I was about to tell a really awesome joke, the way I was giggling all the way through it.

Seems we have a little in common. I cover my mouth really hard, try not to let anything out and hope that it'll be interpreted as something else. I've pretty much told my friends about it now but I think when people are caught up in the moment it's hard to understand. If I had to try and talk like you did however there'd probably be a similar result.

I think another problem is sometimes I just won't need to laugh. (yay) I don't even know what distinguishes the cases and I'm pretty sure it's just me. Others may feel differently.

And there's that too I suppose. haha
 
Turns out I likely suffer from "chronic loneliness" and may even be bipolar.
