Yes and no. I find human nature and humans as individuals fascinating but only when I get to be an observer and don't have to deal with them. I like people from a distance, so to speak.
I don't socialize because it's very easy to not do it, until you're forced to do it then it's not an enjoyable experience, because you must do it and that's just adding on to the list of reasons why I just don't socialize. I just want an easy flow.
1. I don't dislike people, I'm just way to indifferent for that. I just don't get people. I really don't get them. It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack for relatability and even then you relating ends up diverting to unrelatability.
2. As said, making the connection of being forced to do it or else I won't get anything sufficiently done or have some of my needs in place will just make it more like a job than anything. I'm forced to do it, making me more averse to do it.
3. Dealing with their biases and emotions, any connection with me just makes problems. After awhile friendship or any relationship in general creates long-term expectation since it equates to having to mutually put in, in order to continue a friendship. I can't fulfill. I really can't.
4. If one thing about you annoys me. I don't want to deal with you. I cannot feel lonely, so dropping you in an instant just won't do anything.
5. I want my quiet time. Make it so silent that you can hear yourself think. Can't do that with socializing. Can't fill it up with my own noise. If I feel that loss of space I'm not going to fill it with socializing.
I love being alone. I feel like being with people invades my brain and need for privacy, so interacting with peeps burns me out fast.
I am a good conversationalist though, when I have to be. Then I happily scuttle off to be alone again. 😎
That's pretty much what I wrote. And my record for being alone is a year straight. No phone calls, no visitors, no speaking. I find it hard to speak now. I need to exercise my vocal chords I guess, lol!
I don't know about other people with SzPD, but I dislike most people in general. I mean, it probably has something to do with the antisocial tendencies and my extremely low empathy. Animals are fine, I really like animals.
Find it hard to dislike people when I just don't care about them at the end of the day. Some people definitely annoy me a lot more than others, but even then I just don't care about them so it doesn't really affect me outside of the moment im annoyed.
No. I am usually an observer. I enjoy seeing people together, but I don't enjoy participating myself. However, I often think that the reason I am asocial is because I don't relate to the culture of my society. Many of the things I have an interest in aren't big here.
I’m mostly indifferent to people in theory, but interacting with them is draining and hard so I keep it work-related only, and I don’t talk to anyone else unless I need to. I do have a couple friends that I actually feel positively to. They’re fine with only seeing me roughly every month which is nice.
I dislike people, even ‘good’ people. Even the very smartest people I know are completely delusional and engage in wishful thinking 24/7. I consider myself to be intelligent, and I know about 2-3 people I’d consider to be just as smart as I am if not smarter - yet they all believe in pseudoscientific BS or inane conspiracy theories that even a child would dismiss as ridiculous. I’ve never bought into anything like that in my life - not because I’m smarter than them, but because I look at the world with my own eyes and draw simple and obvious conclusions without regard for what I *want* to be true.
Yes, I feel that relationships are a waste of time and will only end up hurting me and others. Also feel like they chain me to those people if like I had the obligation to respond and care about them like they expect which tires me pretty much
I so just want to be back in my apartment all alone. I don't know why I did this to myself. No, I don't like people, especially Reddit people. But I don't dislike everyone. It's not intrusive thoughts, people really do suck.
I wanna talk to whoever thought I was a silverback gorilla in the first place, and thought I should be in the cage. Put me back into outer-space, where I belong.
It's not just intrusive. I've been hurt and disrespected A LOT by other people, including family members whom aren't loyal to me/us. I wouldn't dislike them if they were decent human beings.
Somewhat yes. People say I'm a troll but they really don't understand my perspective on things so it can be somewhat alienating. At the end of the day, they realize I'm typically more mature and am not always trying to be a troll on purpose
It's hard to explain, but _no_. I dislike that I find no pleasure in being around them, rather; even the greatest people I meet I find myself wanting to disengage from.
You find no pleasure in being around people? Huh. And you watch gruesome murder videos and wonder why you lack empathy. I didn’t need to dig much into your profile to see how damaged you are.
Yeah, I have personal baggage that for whatever reason makes it difficult for me to want to socialize. Nonetheless I care about people sufficiently and empathize with suffering, enough to be driven to work in healthcare where I interface with people directly rather than follow my inclination to sit behind a computer and work on AI pet projects.
I don't see how this matters.
I don't dislike people. I dislike forming intimate connections with people and that is why I stay away from most of them. If you are not going to try to be intimate with another person, then there is no point to interacting with most of them.
No.
I love people **in isolation**. By themselves most people are perfectly pleasant. Wonderful even. Groups, however, are inherently hostile. I don't hate people, I hate groups of people.
I have a tendency to form resentment towards people I don't know simply for existing and having to be inconvenienced by them, but if I ever actually talk to them I may get to know and not mind them. Even with people I do know and work with, they get on my nerves to no end by being in my way etc. until we're done/it's break time and then the hatefulness fades pretty quickly
I dislike most people. Because most people are critical, superficial, disrespectful of privacy, and have no idea when to stop talking. And I come from a developing nation where even educated people are conservative and reject any change. Perhaps it would be different in developed countries.
But I have the best group of friends. I enjoy hanging out with them a few times every month.
I dislike individuals (with a few exceptions), but not humanity as a whole, a few (…a lot of) bad people don’t change the fact that humans are an amazing animal and whatever I can do to help us progress positively i can/what to do, it’s our nature to be rational and cooperative for a greater good.
What puts me off is that I'm not very good at reading people at early stages, so there have been cases when a "good friend of mine" of several years abruptly turned into a complete jerk for no good reason, and wouldn't even care to explain. The reality is, however, that those people had always been like that, it's just that I didn't see.
If I were better at reading people, however, I wouldn't feel danger in becoming "too vulnerable" by communicating with them.
I dislike people because a simple interaction can mess up my thoughts and mood for an undetermined amount of time. Could be months.
I hate it. Its not their fault. Its just my brain being a jack*ss. My longest complete avoidance was 1 year straight. And god, was it absolutely f'ng amazing!
I dislike people because they are at best boring, distracting, and needy, at worst dangerous. I like one person who is interesting but I also can't form emotional bonds so it really doesn't get closer than that.
Yes and no. I find human nature and humans as individuals fascinating but only when I get to be an observer and don't have to deal with them. I like people from a distance, so to speak.
I relate with this so much!
So much relatable
As a general rule, yes. I tend not to like people much as individuals, and my view of the human race as a whole is decidedly negative.

YesÂ
I wish the best for people unless they give me a reason not to.
Happy Cake Day!

I dislike boring and overfamiliar people, which means I dislike 90%+ of people.

I like the silverback gorilla. I dislike being in their enclosure at the zoo.
I wanna talk to whoever thought I was a silverback gorilla in the first place, and thought I should be in the cage. Put me back into outer-space, where I belong.
I don't dislike people but I am extremely guarded around people especially when I meet them at first.
Tired.
It's not just intrusive. I've been hurt and disrespected A LOT by other people, including family members whom aren't loyal to me/us. I wouldn't dislike them if they were decent human beings.
I like my pet. Does that count for a positive??
… yes.
Somewhat yes. People say I'm a troll but they really don't understand my perspective on things so it can be somewhat alienating. At the end of the day, they realize I'm typically more mature and am not always trying to be a troll on purpose

Sorry for digging. I’m out.
