Same. Sometimes to the point that a sense of dread kicks in anytime I think of social interactions and I’m unable to use them.

Bingo. It’s not that us introverts can’t make friends, it’s that we won’t

I just accept that the thing I’m really good at is being weird. It’s like a super power at this point.

Happens at work all the time, I don’t wanna be a manager and tell people what to do, I just wanna be in my corner and do my work. I’ve been forced to develop these social skills but still hate doing it.
