I just hate dealing with people. I want to be liked, but I'm not very likable, and I always feel like I'm being judged, or put on display. I've turned down offers to do things because I'm so self-conscious, and I feel uncomfortable when I'm wearing jeans and a T-shirt. Anything less concealing, and I doubt I'd even go outside.
