>According to most psychologists, humans are inherently social creatures; contact with others isn’t just a want—it’s a need. People infer "social" to meaning talking, making friends, going to parties, etc, but there are more useful definitions here. The greater social need we have is to be judged and make judgements of others. This behavior evolved into us long before language did. The modern hermit need not talk to anyone. They simple need to have a presence in some internet community to fill their social cup.
