being yourself is good whether you're the same or different

Whether being different is good or not depends on your ability to handle people's opinions of you. If you care about what others think, being different can be very difficult. If what others think is the most important thing to you, then being different can destroy your psyche and ruin your social relationships/standing.
Just realize that it's not being different per se that is harmful, it's how you perceive others' opinions of your differences. If you understand that you're different and are positive about that fact, and if you understand that how others perceive those differences is not the be-all and end-all, then you should get along just fine, as long as those differences don't actually cause harm to others (and I can't see how wearing cozy slippers does that). Your opinion of yourself is what's genuinely important, in my humble opinion.

Being different can be very good, I know I don't want to be like everyone else. I just want to be myself.
But it sounds like you are very different from most of us in a lot of ways. All I can say is just try to do the best you can, people might like you because you're you and there's only one you.

All people is different in some special way. That´s make life interesting. If all of us were the same, life would be boring!!!!
About making friends, sometimes is difficult to find open minded people, but I can assure you, that all kind of people exist so sooner or later you´ll find friends.

I am the same way. It is always good as long as you know who the real you is and you don't let anyone else define you. Don't take what other people might say about you offensive, that just makes everything hard, but be your self and keep your spirits up.

liking "underground" music and wearing slippers is not unusual or unique.
trust me, there's thousands of people just like you.
you are not a beautiful and unique snowflake. you are the all singing, all dancing crap of the world.
no, but really, get over it, be happy. if you want friends, make friends. if you dont want friends, then be happy.

At the moment, i'm just thanking God that there are people like you who are different. Never give that up. Never. We all need to get over our image and over judging people and accept or acknowledge diversity on the deepest level.

That depends.
Being different to the point of wanting to hurt others is where I think it's bad.
But I'm totally the oddball in our school. I'm crazy. :P But everybody loves me because I'm different.
Hope this helps. :)
