People with crippling social anxiety: I'm an just an introvert haha
Straight up, I don't dislike or quickly get exhausted socializing I just suck at it lol
I'm not sure if I should be labeled as an introvert or not. I just hate small talk and don't really care to get to know people unless they interest me. Not many people interest me, because I find people just bitch about the same things or the only thing they have to talk about is sports team, weather, or TV thing.
People who say I'm quiet, just don't know I hate talking to them. I won't shut up around the 2-3 people I actually like. I never had a problem throwing myself into social settings or just conversing with strangers. I'm typically the one coordinating people to get together.
I'm either the less introvert of the introvert group or maybe I'm a sociopath?
Anyhow I shut down conversations like OP all the damn time, just because I don't want to talk to that person in particular or I'm in a hurry.
You may also just have adhd.
I'm the same way. I like meeting new people but get disinterested easily. I know for a fact I'm introverted because I get exhausted in social gatherings and prefer alone time or casual convo. An extroverted introvert is what I've been labeled as.
TIL it's just social anxiety and not my need to avoid lengthy interactions with humans because I dislike them.
