I made it a new years resolution to become more social, you're definitely not alone in this. As a developer I sit in front of a screen for the better part of eight hours a day with very little social interaction other than a few emails and IM's and whoever decides they need something and wants to come up and talk. Social skills are like a muscle in my opinion, the more you use them the better they'll be, I'm a good developer because I use those muscles five days a week and I'm a bad conversationalist because I don't conversate much. Just like making a resolution to hit the gym more often in the new year, as a developer, I'm making a resolution to have more conversations.
