I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like that, because it seems like everyone else loves hanging out for hours and I end up feeling awkward when I leave early.

I think I can only happily handle socializing (going out, partying, etc.) in very small doses... usually after a few hours out I'm already dying to go home, shower, spin, watch some tv and relax Socializing always seems more appealing/rewarding to me in theory than in practice

I have come to that decision begrudgingly however. I find I can "perform" well enough in social circumstances even with high level types of people, but I can only keep it up for a couple of hours and then I want to murder them all. It's hard hard work for me. The reason I don't recommend getting too comfortable with being alone is that when you are older, alone is TRULY alone, and it becomes a physical liability. People do really need each other in later life to be safe, cared for, and for mental stability. I don’t recommend supporting being antisocial for positioning onesself for later life.

Even in his clique, he doesn't quite fit in. His actions are very random and they don't follow the social norms at all. It makes him come off as anti-social, but I think he just over-analyzes every situation and reaction to the point where he doesn't know how to act anymore. However, I don't think he's conscious of this, whereas you are. I think I’ve met someone like you before. Even in his clique, he doesn’t quite fit in.

Everyone may think I'm anti-social, but I just think that everyone else is high maintenance. I must admit, I’m the same way.

It's come to the point where most people cannot understand no interpret my actions anymore. It's a painful curse. Some days I wish I can do better without being with people.
