ah okay then I'm an introvert I suppose. I don't have a problem with people and can talk to them just fine its just my preference to be independent and by myself but on the same hand when I do socialize with people I try to aviod personal relationships mainly because I find it difficult to express empathy towards anyone really.

I hope when I get older I don't have a disorder.
