I understand what you're saying. Sometimes I feel like I have a "mental chasm," too, but only in the sense that I tend to intellectualize everything, which, here, is Weird. But my consciousness of this only makes me egocentric. At the same time, people really interest me, because I can apply them to various theories I've come up with regarding Experience, Relationships, Change and other pretentious capitalized subjects--although I wonder if this interest is, in itself, just another intellectualization of my stupid and stereotypically feminine tendencies to "target, make lists, obsess, etc," which probably hold me back from that which is Truly Important and make sure I've filled my "annoying girl" quota.
the self-perpetuating tendencies of intellectualization and egocentrism...this sounds brilliantly familiar. i'm not sure how much sociological interest i take in people; it comes and goes. right now i'm in a Most Humans Are Subhuman phase...but last year i did an ethnography of the cafeteria. twas basically awesome; people have odd habits.

But whatever. Emotions are overrated.
