If you’re constantly battling between being the life of the party and hating people with a passion, you’re (most likely) not crazy – you may just be a sociable loner, living at the intersection of Care Bear Road and Grumpy Cat Place:
- You’re conflicted when a friend cancels plans: On one hand we’re really disappointed; we were totally looking forward to checking out that new restaurant…but then we realize that we can now spend the entire evening watching the ID channel…
- You love parties!: The music, the people, the alcohol. Especially the alcohol, without it, putting up with the people would be impossible.
- And you really, really love texting: A way to communicate with people without having to actually talk to them?! Dreams do come true!
- That goes double for Facebook: I “like” your pictures of Burning Man, it looks like you had a blast! Glad I wasn’t there…
- When you do go out people are constantly asking if you’re okay: Why? Can I not be sitting here, not talking to anyone, and still be having a good time?
- You have to suppress the urge to strangle people who actually call you: Hang up and text me! What is wrong with you?
- You tend to confuse people with your complex personality: Just because we smile and greet you warmly doesn’t mean we actually want to talk to you…
- You enjoy being the center of attention but are easily annoyed when people don’t “get” you: Today’s topic of conversation is rainbows, get on my level people!
- You occasionally have a problem with over-sharing: Due to lack of practice interacting with other humans, we have no idea what forms of conversation are socially acceptable.
- You have been known to have entire conversations with animals: Have you ever talked to a cat? They’re awesome!
- You’re completely confused by dating: A person who adores us and takes us on creative outings? Great! Wait, will I be expected to actually pay attention to them after this?
- Clubs, concerts, etc are a conundrum: We want to go but…there will be other people there, people we don’t already know…
- You believe a “night-in” trumps a “night-out” any day: We want to be with people…OUR people, that’s all.
- Whenever someone volunteers you for something you’re equal parts flattered and irritated: Wow, they want me? How nice! Now, how can I get out of this?
- You always take your own transportation to parties: That way, we can leave whenever we’re ready, without having to bother anyone else.
