So many of the things you said rang true for me.
"If you're a true introvert, your biggest enemy is yourself."
I was very shy when I was younger, I spent most of my time in High School by myself, and there were some very uncomfortable times, but looking back I was fine being by myself. I preferred, and still do, single-player games to anything else. I like watching movies and listening to music on my own or in a small group. I feel like I can absorb things and enjoy them better that way.
In High School it made me self conscience because everyone expects you to have friends. Those "find a lab partner" moments were awful.
There's nothing wrong with being an introvert if that's how you like to do things, but like you said, if you don't reach out to anyone, they aren't likely to reach out to you. Friendships take more than one person to work.
