Why do so many people on imgur hate being social?
FoxySpirit
Because Imgur is the place where people who hate being social go. Though hate is a strong word. Just a very very low need.

yes, because you're the only person on the gargantuan website that is imgur who has ever felt antisocial you special snowflake you.

In extreme cases it sure can feel like it

This depicts introversion not shyness, social anxiety or anything else.

Most of my friends these days realise that I'll come out occasionally but if i don't, it's not that i don't like people.
Panda4hire
Please can this be a thing. Being social is so much work.
IamtheGreatQueenSnugglewombs
It is. Ive had vacation for 2 weeks and the only people Ive seen are my cats and my SO, but he's kinda like a cat
eyedontlie
This IS a thing, you just say "I came out last week"
Phrasing?
warick
Does going to work count as going out?
Yeah just say you're tired from work
MOTHERFUCKINGBIRDJESUS
Yea if people invited me to things I'd go but no one does so whatever
Making the connections so that people invite you places is hard work.

Great trick. Since I mastered It my life is 100 times better and I actually get laid!

i feel like i'm not living my life when I'm in with Netflix. so i just feel guilty that i'm letting myself down.
SJDanie
I've whittled my social circle to about 15 people. 10 acquaintances and 5 or so good friends. No drama, no bullshit.
ForestRed
Well. More than me.
That's so many
Me too, but I whittled it down to just me. Feels good.
My best friends are "Me", "Myself" and "I", so that makes three! And they're all friends with benefits! Best relationship ever!
Imgonnatipyouwell
Actually the trick is to have kids and then all of a sudden you'll be desperate for social interaction.
RandyMarshThoughtThisWasAmerica
Don't sto me now!
ocegur
Yeah but sadly we are social animals, so we need a minimum of social interactions to survive. The things is to pick them well.
MadScientistInTraining
Imgur is where i go when i want to talk
Good pick!

140 characters limit... that isn't talking, that's a sentence.

It's not always limited to one sentence. Sometimes it's two. Some posts can contain as many as three or even four. That's about it though.
Course then you can always do this 2/2
WowSoSparkly
I asked my doctor if online interaction counts, he said yes ^_^
By doctor you mean WebMD?
Of course. Learning that I probably had ebola didn't help with the anxiety, but hey, I know now that sharing it with people here helps.

KatInTheCorner
See, for me it's not about the other people, it's just the amount of stimulus in a club/bar is overwhelming. Why so loud?!?!
droomph
it's not even the loudness, it's that they've made the audio so bass heavy they might as well just play an 808 track
internetheroxD
Whoawhoa, no need to shout!
Pilgrin
Definitely too loud sometimes
Hambidestro
Some people like more to dance and have fun and less to talk-->loud music and alcohol. But the world offers much more than this, you choose
GoodChange
And why so hot, it's always crazy hot and bad ventilation. Too top it off you're supposed to dance around and get even hotter.
RemainsspacebarUnknown
for me its deff new people. i just cant get comfortable. but its deff. gotten better as im getting a little older.
That's because you're going deaf, which takes us to why some thought "It should be louder" was a good idea and we go full circle.

I don't like clubs or big bars. I'm all in for a meetup with nice people in a quiet bar/at home/park/restaurant or whatever.
iDrinkDrano
Even this can make me jittery sometimes. I *want* to socialize. ;~;
Then again people always want to drag me into some noisy places where you can hardly understand anyone or the purpose is to get drunk
And in the end they wonder why I'm so 'anti-social' o.O
I feel you.I just want a quiet place,too.Clubs are full of people who wanna fuck and that's gross.Im staying at home.
ShnazzyMJ
I think AsSeenByMacaroni's point was that he/she has stopped caring if people call him/her antisocial when he/she stays in
