I'm curious, do you not like big groups or being with people in general? I get really quiet with lots of people and really need to be alone sometimes but if other people didn't exist, I really wouldn't have a reason to live.

What are your balances? Do you find purpose or meaning in other people, even impacting others indirectly despite being reclusive? Me personally, I focus a lot of my alone time on my friends, like trying to unravel their emotions and thoughts or even just making gifts.
