Incorrect thinking IF she is an introvert. (This is a common misperception of extroverts in relation to what SHOULD be healing.)
Yes, social interaction IS in general a good thing, but if she is an introvert, she would be much better suited to one on one interaction, or maybe a get together with a few friends.
Parties are not so much fun for many introverted people.... And before you make a snap judgment as to whether or not she is an introvert.... An introvert is simply someone who energizes through alone time whereas an extrovert is someone who energizes through contact with people. So you energize through all that social contact, but that may not exactly be up her alley.
Try to encourage smaller activities instead of large parties. Not everyone is a party animal....
