I understand your problem. I've been there myself. I chose to isolate myself. (I have big memory problems so that influenced my decision.)

Actually I'm perfectly happy to be by myself. Well sort of...
I don't remember my friends
I don't remember my life
I don't remember world news

However, I finally realized I was missing out on what was going on in the world.

I have celebrated my "over the hill" birthday so many times I'm losing count. There are at least two generations younger than I am. So there is a lot to learn. What music do they listen to, how do you use a telephone to send text messages, 72" TV screens. Just a lot and I wasn't keeping up. I wasn't unhappy but I felt like I was missing out.

Maybe if you try either smaller social contact or maybe extra large social gatherings (like a rock concert) where no one knows anybody and can't expect any communication. You can't even here yourself think at a rock concert.
