What is the living strategy of social people?

thank you  I don't think I am one either

I think he just looked at my past and my cold shoulder and wrote me off. He is like one of those generic hospital doctors that has hundreds of patients.

I am going to see another doctor - I want to at least get tested for AS. I just hope the new doctor wants to give me sleeping pills, that's the only thing holding me back.

I live alone and love it. As renaeden was saying, I recharge by being alone. I socialize enough at work;
I go out socially maybe 4-6 times a year, and every time, I'm happy to return home and come back here!

Wow, I need to go out a lot more than that. I just had my best friend at my house last night. And I used to be a barfly although I paid no attention to the people around me except the person I was with.


Ive been told I can be very charming, but I think it's real

I think so too.

Being able to understand other human beings, what they're doing, why they're doing it, and what they will do in the future, is overrated.  Sometimes it's useful but god DAMN it can it be frustrating.

I have a much higher social need than I used to.  I'm not entirely certain what made that happen; I think being around others routinely and getting a taste for it is a large component.  Another potential reason, right now anyway, is that being around other people is (for me anyway) a good distraction from inner pain- at least if I'm around the right kind of people and doing the right kind of things.

I wonder as well.  I think he drifted off into the ether.

I score fairly high for schizoid.

I talk with the neighbors here and there, or the parents of my son's friends, and spend time up my mom's. That's about it for my socializing .

I find people tiring for the most part, and I'm clueless as to what pleasure anyone gets out of most social occasions, after 20 minutes I normally spend my time looking for an exit door.

 I cannot talk to anybody socially that I don't already know. I can talk to anybody about things like business, but socially I am at a total loss
