[Again, it's a good question, and one he has to think about.]
It highlighted the differences between me and them, I believe. They seemed so naive and directionless, whereas I always felt that I was meant for something more, even if I couldn't articulate what.
But just the same, they liked me, and they respected and trusted me. It was different to anything I had experienced in the compound, and in Umbrella as a whole. I liked the attention, and I liked the admiration; I think I enjoyed being validated as a whole back then, almost more than anything else.
I did enjoy being on my own and away from the strict rules of the compound; I remember smoking for a while, though I quit soon after I took it up. I seem to have gotten in a relationship as soon as I could. I think I liked the freedom, for a while, though after some time I think it did start to grate on me. It was all fake, and I knew it, but I think I enjoyed living a life that technically wasn't mine to have for a while and I didn't know what to do with that.
