The last 15-20 years I have fought this avpd without realizing it. Just had a thought here the other day, what about just accepting life as it is, that I generally dont like people and want to be left alone? What about not trying to be liked at all, if I dont like to talk, just **** it and dont talk. I have no friends and everyone I meet I feel I have to do the forced boring smalltalk which I am fed up of! WHat you guys think, anyone here that have approached life/people like this?
