lol I know what you mean. I always complain of being alone and the moment I get invited to something I always think 'I cant be arsed...I'll have to talk to new people'.

We work in weird ways Wink

Actually I really understand what you're saying. I guess we get this feeling because of conflicting feelings and motives. We feel uncomfortable when we're around people because we want to give good impressions but don't believe we can do so and thus become anxious in social situations. on the flip side, we might become unsettled when we're alone for too long because we might keep thinking "man I should really get out there, face my fears and be around people". So it's kinda complicated you see.

Peoples behavours and the way they interact tend to get analyzed by us and it has some effect especially with me anyway
This happens i think because we assume people are analyzing us when in actual fact that part of their brain is dormant whereas ours is hulka-mania!

Our active minds....... Rolling Eyes

We can be intimidated by small things from a person such as, their stare, their smile, their laugh, their voice even so theres no wonder we dont want to interact

Watching how other people behave just makes me feel like an outcast
