[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's my honest answer: I'm shy, hate small talk, and only enjoy socializing one-on-one. So I am fine with having a friend over, or meeting for coffee, or taking a walk. But I hate the stilted conversation of having a couple over. My husband is even worse at small talk than I am, so it is usually uncomfortable. If I have to be in a social group setting, I prefer to do it in someone else's home or in a neutral location so I can leave whenever I want. When it's in your own house, you're stuck. I try not to accept invitations to dinner parties because I don't want to have to reciprocate. And so over the years, we rarely get invited to anyone's house. My socializing is limited to meeting friends for coffee or taking walks. Personally, I am fine with this, but I can imagine most people probably think I am strange for it.[/quote] I don't think you are strange. I'm the same way.[/quote]
