The guys at work call me Shrek, I spend time with my family or out in the shop, my kids come first, not a lot of spare time left after that for grown up social time.

the voices in my head keep me company its all i will ever need other than the wife and kids to pull meback to reality.

i too run a buisness on call 24/7 for you poor souls locked out of homes and cars. but more than that my wife is my best friend.. most my good friends or aquaintences, however you wish to describe it, are of the online nature.. does this make me a nerd maybe but its how i met my wife 10 years ago lol. i just found the friends i grew up with ended up being more fake and used me for help but never returned the favor than the ppl ive met in game rooms and forums.

so yes im a hermit with no life other than my family and my new found love of this hobby. andthe voices can be entertaining

I work a lot. And all my work is interaction with people. But every other night I do go out with my girlfriend. So I'd say I'm pretty social

I'm fairly social. Often go out for lunch or socialize with co-workers on my lunch break during the week and I go out with friends or family during the weekend. However most evenings during the week I like to relax on the couch and watch T.V.

I had a pretty hard time with 'friends' in elementary and junior high. Good bullied bad enough it led to pa pretty bad low between then and highschool. Finally things changed in highschool... I started to make friends. I've now grabbed hold friendships a lot more enthusiastically, and my desire to be a 'social butterfly' is causing me problems with university. I go out regularly wednesdays (drop in soccer and wing's night), and usually a friday or saturday. I hardly drink but I like to spend time hanging with people and doing activities even through the week. Even during school daytimes, any friends I see or talk to, I end up hanging out with. I also have ADD. I need to develop some more control.

Seriously...
Between waking up at 5 am for work weekdays and performing weeknights at second storey theatre there is just no time or inclination for social endeavours.

It doesnt help that my job basically constitutes bull ****ting and maintaining fake realtionships with people i could really care less about.

Thats wears on a guy and really makes the relationships you actually care about seem annoying.
