He's super smart, so maybe he can adapt quickly. I'm sure everyone around him tries to help him out.

I think Steve's ability to adapt is both a benefit and the crux of his problems. He's resilient and quick enough to adapt practically to his environment which has given the illusion that he's fine when he's struggling emotionally. It makes sense to me that as a soldier you have to prioritize the practical stuff first but then rather than tackle the emotional stuff, that all gets sidelined because technically on a day to day basis, you're fine.

Ascii steals balls of wool and collects them if you don't watch her.

When I lived with a cat, she used to build herself little forts with balls of yarn my roommate had lying around. You look up and she's asleep, circled by a ring of yarn balls.

Or maybe going to a Red Cross meeting with a bunch of woman and children, who all think he's sort of sweet for being there, but he doesn't notice because he's Steve.

I know everyone was super impressed by Chris Evans' physique as post-serum Steve (and yes, it is totally impressive) but I really liked pre-serum Steve and kind of miss him. He was so determined and noble. He was probably getting people who liked him to be better people way before he became big by just being himself.
