If you and your SO are happy then who are we to judge. Should you find things change and you want to try it differently join some groups or volunteer - do something you can be passionate about and you’ll meet new people at the same time.
A lot of brilliant successful people have adult Aspergers diagnoses including top leaders at companies like Apple, Microsoft, FB...and this is sometimes a trait. maybe you just aren’t wired to be social. Make life work for you; don’t worry about comparing yourself, love yourself for whoever you are.
People a lot. I enjoy having time alone, with my SO, and with family and then friends sporadically throughout the year. I don’t feel the need to communicate or be with people a lot. I see pictures of people in small groups going out with their friends and I like that but at the same time I don’t make an effort really and don’t feel like I’m missing out. I feel like I mentally and physically don’t need a lot of people in my life or a lot of interaction. Weird? Common? Anyone?
Sounds like you may want to try - so why not get out of your comfort zone and either alone or with your SO do a group volunteer activity - maybe it will help you but it will definitely help the charity.
Also I’m talking about my personal life as opposed to clients and teams I interact with at work.
No. You’re just an introverted person. It’s in your dna. Do some research on introvert and extroverts. Education is power
I am the same except I literally have NO friends at all. It’s depressing sometimes to see everyone else with friends. If I didn’t have my SO or my family idk what I’d do. Sometimes I think about making an effort to try and join some groups and make friends but I also like staying in my comfort zone and having my free time to myself which is enough to keep me from making the first step.
