Going to weddings for people I don’t know and office parties where I don’t work come to mind.

Even going to weddings of people I do know is sheer torture to me. I hate weddings.

I also feel like a fish out of water at parties, and very rarely enjoy them. Usually they're just depressing and leave me wondering why I'm spending time with these people.

Same. 'Going out' is just stressful and/or depressing.

Honestly, if you are wondering "why I'm spending time with these people", you should find a different group of people.

People you are excited to share with, see and spend time with.

Good groups of people are hard to find, but make a big difference.

I’ve thought the same but view it as a weakness
