If we really didn't like other people, we wouldn't all be on this website answering each other's posts. Everybody wants companionship, it's just the rejection that we're afraid of.
I like to be with other people, but I prefer to meet in a non-public place and not visit with too many people at a time. Also, unless it's someone I'm really close with (like my sister) I like to keep the visits short.

But perhaps they mean that they don't like to meet people in person.

I want companionship, I like being around people, it just depends who it is. Most people I don't like. To be more clear, I should say I don't like "normal" people I guess. Everyone I've ever liked and all the friends I've ever had have been people who most people would consider weird, geeks, introverted outsider types. I find people like that more interesting to be around than normal people. Plus I'm not all anxious and nervous around people like that, I feel...I don't know...more at home around them. I'm not afraid they will judge me like other people do. That's why I like coming here and reading what people write, we're all a bunch of social misfit weirdos, I love it.
I thought when I was out of school things would be different, but all life is like high school. The same people who were jerks in high school are jerks at work and every other part of life. I've had a lot of the same experiences working as I did in school, people taking advantage of you, making up crap about me...stuff like that. I can't trust anybody. It's sad. I want to, but it always comes back to bite me on the ass.
That's why when I read people complaining about how they want to be part of society, all I can say is why? Have you been out in it lately? It's pretty crappy out there. Not only are most people mean and selfish and bullies, but they are....I'll be nice and just say stupid...
I've always had this conflict about that too, especially in my teen years, I hated everyone cause of what they said about me or did to me and cause everyone was just a carbon copy of everyone else and it bothered me. Yet I was terrified of their judgment of me...I never understood how I could be so fearful of people and hate them at the same time. If I hate them, what do I care what they think or say about me?...it's really confusing. Still is.
I love people and care about others very much.I just have a fear of rejection and think people are out to hurt me sometimes,so i protect myself by not letting others in at all,only my closest friend.

Some people I like, but some people I cannot stand as they have given me no reason to like them or have shut me out of their world. I like caring people who do not think solely about themselves.
i very much like a lot of people, but i just dont want to be involved with them because my outward personalitiy is too easily overwhelmed by most people.
