Not interested. I'm an introvert.

  I understand the impulse. Truly, I do. But there's pretty much no human being alive that requires zero social interaction to feel good. And GP's point is that you gotta make friends while you are more able. You may not be interested now, but the worst case is finding yourself needing a friend and unable to make one.

    > there's pretty much no human being alive that requires zero social interaction That may be true, but my threshold seems too low for other people. And it doesn't mean interacting with others helps against feelings of loneliness, usually it won't or even does the opposite. The last person I met who I kinda vibed with expressed interest in living as a hermit, so I guess I'm not gonna be fun at parties very soon.

  From one introvert to another - you can and should still make friends. Sometimes it’s more work for us than it is for others, but that doesn’t mean the work isn’t worth doing.
