Lifesaver

If someone has a personality, preferences, or interests that differ from the social norm, then I think as much as possible they should try to figure out a way to be able to do their own thing and not have to change. The world being what it is, there are times we all have to be practical and compromise , but overall people are more content when they can stay true to their nature .
Since hardly anyone perfectly fits the social ideal, I think everyone does the things below to one degree or another.
