A young man, ex neighbor, friend to my sons, moved
from Los Angeles
to Upper New York state, but he's online so we still talked,
occasionally.
He confided that he felt People in the Small town where he lived didn't
like him and felt he needed to move
on. 
I wrote him. "Don't move on too fast and lose this great opportunity.
Enjoy and explore this situation. Village suspicion is a very interesting
problem and for you, a real challenge. You told me that these small town
New England folks suspect you, judge you, look down on you or just dislike
you. YOU THINK. THE weather, the vibes 'out there' have accidentally, (you
think,) soured.And as you tell me, the cops are onto you and so are the killer criminals.
Wow, what do we do for all these stormy conditions? As you are a high
ole human, elegant, smart... (in spite of being a card carrying schizophrenic with paranoid delusions) you gotta do the spade work, the research,
detective work for the REST OF US and discover or find the MODEL BEHAVIOR
THAT TURNS PUBLIC OPINION AROUND. At that point, whether you
stay in that village or move to some more open climate is not important,
what is important is that then you teach the TURNAROUND method. What I've
discovered so far is:
WHAT TO DO IF THEY SUSPECT YOU OF nasty STUFF cuz they really don't know and they're projecting their own 'garbage' over you. OK, they don't KNOW so they only suspect.
a.) Do things that show up as saintly. Working with small children no longer works in our society as they SUSPECT THAT WORSE than anything.
b.) pick up trash in park.
c.) get a brigade of teens to do same, or do public fence and wall painting somewhere. I know you don't have graffiti, but some old building? Like an ad hoc vintage restoration project?
c.) volunteer work at the park. Teach volley ball, buy a new net Spalding ball and give it to the park and rec director.
IF THEY JUDGE YOU :
a.) cut your hair regularly.
(he has a shock of black, smooth hair down to his collar).
b.) improve your posture. That hunch? Only cuz you aren't doing full
stretches.
c.) Get a volunteer job at the library, to come in after school when
kids are there. Wear a suit and tie or at least freshly ironed sportshirt
and get all kids interested in loftier books. Talk up the great
ones. You may have to read for a bit to find your own favorites.
If THEY LOOK DOWN ON YOU:
a.) Read the Wall Street Journal at coffee shop. Ole farts will come
over and discuss investment.

REALLY bone up . http://home.earthlink.net/~astrology/invest.htm
These are free online schools for stock investing knowledge. I checked
out all those urls, made a list. FUN READING. You instantly make pals with
men of all ages, when this is your rap.
b.) learn about that phenomena called the "breathing" of the stock market, monitoring it intuitively, which you are good at. For instance, STOCK ups and downs relate to news headlines. Just yesterday MARKET took a big 300 point surge up after many surges down. Haven't a clue myself why this happened. Discussing this 'breathing' at Starbucks with ole farts is a great pastime. They invite you to their parties, you meet their daughters. These guys talk you up to the women folk saying you're a real brain.
IF THEY JUST OUTRIGHT DISLIKE YOU.
a.) They won't if you're Charlie Charming crossed with Jesus! One by one, pick off the real haters. Find them at work. You shower them with praise, acknowledgement, pos-quips, joy juice which can be jokes, celeb gossip, opinions and viewpoint which I know you don't do often as it's so BS but...do it now. MIRROR them like a golden mirror where they look better than they are. Even if they're sulky, spitting nails, clinging to their attitude, be bright mirror. Salute them gaily, walk off.
b.) Then, give them some time. LET THEM 'COOK' Digest and cook. They will. Most probably they will reconsider. They will come up a notch. Next time you meet them, there's an upgrade. Work them again. By the time a few accidental meetings go by, they will be gladrapping you to the village.
c.) Give Holistic massages to ancient people in the park, shoulders,
base of brain is about all you can do in a park. NOBODY turns you down
once they feel the juice climb to the brain. Go to OLD AGE HOME, give same
massages for 5$ a piece. Or tip if they want.
d). You have a car, do what I used to do. Hit
bakeries at night, cooks would give me dozens of unsold loaves,
Healthfood stores would give me dozens of milk/ yogurt. Small markets the rat-hole dog and cat kibble. I'd distribute them to single mothers, sleeping bums on park benches.
THIS applying yourself to the chore as if it were a challenge to get in charge IS A KIND OF HOMEWORK. Consciously doing this daily will lift your own self image with them, but more importantly, with YOURSELF as you see that YOU have your hands on the dials and levers of your life. There is no accidental occurrence 'out there.' You create the 'out there.' You are responsible for 'out there.'
The Out There will never crowd you uncomfortably again. You are in control.
