At what point is it bad to be antisocial?

Question

At what point in your life should an antisocial person be like "s***w it, i have to get out of my house and meet people.'' What are signs that your antisocialness might be killing you? im 17 and sometimes i like being antisocial, and sometimes i wish i had groups of friends to go out with.

Answer 1

I'm 18 now, and I would say I was kind of anti social about 3 years ago. I still am kind of but have improved a lot. If you really want to be in groups of friends then that's a big sign that your antisocialness is killing you, I was like that and so I just decided that I'd jump at every moment I could to meet people. Now is a good time to start hanging around with people if you can as it's a good experience.

Answer 2

i was antisocial for three years and then i said "f*ck it, im getting laid' thats how u know its killing you

Answer 3

i think when your a teenager or like 10 or 11 its time to start getting out and finding friends and start being more social.

Answer 4

i'm only 15 but i'm pretty much the same way as you--i like having my alone time but at other times i really wish i had a best friend or a group of close friends to just talk to whenever and about anything.

but i honestly can't help you with this question--i'm still trying to figure it out myself.

goodluck =]

Answer 5

I think that there is no point at which being antisocial should end because there sohuldn't be a point where it should begin. Being antisocial overall is bad for you. I know that there are times when people jsut want to have some time to be alone and clear their head but there should also be times when they are social because being social will help so much in life as for your own self and the way you feel. But some signs that show that your antisocial might be hurting you is that you feel alone and feel as no one cares about you. Or you may feel depressed, bored, angry, and have a low self esteem. THese are signs that are telling a person that they need people in their lives to talk to and to have fun with. They need that support and that confidence knowing that there are people out their who they can relate to and talk to.  If you wish you had friends then don't wait for it to happen by itself, go out their and make friends.

Answer 6

I'm anti-social but I'm part of a sisterhood (like Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants) so whenever I'm feeling crummy I can talk to them. Seek out people like yourself and bring them together and you can create a circle of friends that's right for all of you.
