Ditto pretty much everything you say about the pleasant but also often difficult work for maintaining friendships. I was never good at it; past friends who didn't know me as well as I'd hoped often erroneously took my loner-behaviour personally. My current friends do not . . .I hope. I also love being with friends---particularly in small groups, as opposed to parties---but the acts of making the connections and making it out to the social gatherings is often extremely hard for me; many times I've simply lost my nerve. I guess it's the whole fear of rejection thing. ::sigh::
