to be blunt...

Pull your head out of your ass.

The world works as a social organization.

You don't have to sacrifice beliefs, but you do have to actually socialize.

And yes, that does mean going to parties and learning how they work just like you go to class and learn how to do homework.

You're right. I'm also depicting the social organization - and my resistance towards it - in rather polarizing terms. A large part of the problem is choosing socializing over doing something fun/interesting, which I've learnt, only a while ago, that you gotta do.

And your assumption that socializing isn't fun or interesting...

Not sure. Probably because I tried a few times and was bored - and just wanted to get back and do stuff.

But I get your point. Thank you.
