Do you consider yourself Anti Social?

It's called being in introvert. Own it unless you want to change. If you're fine with how you are then don't worry. I myself am an introvert by nature and though I would like to be just a bit more out going, I am quite comfortable spending time with myself. Just don't waste all that alone time, many of the great thinkers were and are introverts. The more I give advice the more I notice how much of a hypocrite I am....meh.

I myself use to think I was anti social, but then I realized I just don't have a lot in common with the average Joe since I don't like getting wasted, high, or chasing tail. I don't know what it is like where you are going to school or work at but almost every conversation at my job starts out "last night I got so hammered" or "so I did this chick last night", which I always have to reply with "I don't care".

I'm not exactly anti-social, but like SolarFlareKC said, its more that what I enjoy doing, specially at my age bracket, most guys at that age dont play video games, watch anime, or fight in medieval armor. Which is why most of my friends are the ones who at least do 2 of the three. I'm one of the few who watch anime. But when I am out, I make friends easily, specially if we have something to talk about in common.

The last I checked, I have an INTJ personality type, which is known to have problems with socializing and personal relationships. I don't consider myself anti-social anymore, but there are some cases where I withdraw from people.

IM SOO EMO. On a real note though, I have a pretty easy time opening up and carrying on a conversation for a first meeting. After a while however, all the talk is really shallow if the other person and I don't have a lot of intersecting interests. I find it SUPER irritating having that kind of conversation and usually do my best to break away from that person. Since anime is my passion and I'm currently enlisted in the Navy, it's hard for me to find people I can genuinely connect with. Although anime isn't my only interest, it is definitely my biggest interest, and I think that's pretty much the reason I'm here now

Im not really anti social, but Im not really social either. I'm kinda inbetween. I have called a loner before, by friends I might add.

You are anti-doingrhingsyoudon'twanttodo. if you found people who did what you want to do, you would be social. I'm the same way. I don't look at it as anti social tho..more like, "you people are boring me so I'll just chill and do actual cool shit.

I think being social is about finding bridges of interest that connect you with other people and crossing them to create some traffic. Find out what you like first. Then at whatever social situation you find yourself in, attempt to find some of those "bridges" and talk/build upon that. If you don't have that many interests, then you'd have to find the right venue to hang out in. Music enthusiasts go to jazz clubs, anime lovers go to conventions, sports fans to the games, etc... There isn't a point in a biker fan going to a ballet. It's unlikely they'll find someone with the same interests. If you believe yourself to be antisocial, try getting a genuine interest in new things. Even introverts can talk for hours on end about whatever it is that they are passionate about. anyways that's my spiel on it. to answer your question using what i wrote above as a reference, i'm both social and antisocial depending on the circumstances.
