Comment on Once you are over 30 we no longer want to go out - we want to be left alone, with a beer/wine, a blanket, tv, and tacos…

  Yeah. For me it was before my 30s even, but it’s less to do with a specific age and more to do with the fact that as an introvert you sooner or later realise pretending to be an extrovert isn’t worth the energy and effort.

    Also, even as an introvert, I didn’t want to hang around the house while I was still living with my parents…

    This comment reflects such a weird mentality that I see sometimes, conflating being social with being extroverted. The two go hand in hand, but they are not the same. I love having time with myself reading or playing games, but I am consistently at my overall happiest when that time is punctuated with going out and socializing with friends or occasionally meeting new people. Never going out doesn’t make a person introverted, it just means they are antisocial.
