Last night I wrote this post that explains my issues with having girl friends.  I came off as high anti-social and as a person who does not like people .  OK–I ended the post stating that I am anti-social.  Perhaps I was a bit too harsh on myself or in stating how I feel.

I like people in general.  I like being around people.  But I need my space as well.  Probably more than most.  Being around people exhausts me because it takes a lot of energy and effort on my part to hold conversations…because I am naturally an introvert.  I can’t change the fact that I am an introvert.  All I can do is make the effort to be around people.  And then, after, take some alone time to recharge my proverbial batteries.
