I thought this was just me!
My parents didn't really let us have people over when I was growing up. Playing in the yard was okay but not inside, so I went to friends' homes to socialize. That has carried over in my adult life. I have one or two people who can come over any time, but for the most part, company causes my anxiety levels to go through the roof!
I really don't want to be like this and I'm trying to work through the anxiety so that I can lead a more social life. I'm in therapy but so far, that part hasn't improved.
