Abso fucking lutely.

If you are not social, that means you are disincentivized to practice social interaction. That means you have a hard time socializing to not feel lonely when you do feel so.

I have always felt lonely as hell. And since I was not fucking stepping out to keep relationships alive and practice human interaction, I dug myself deeper into this hole. Now I cant even fucking make friends.

I would love to stay home and chill out. But I know Im wasting away in this virgin hell every single day.

I mean I am not social either, but I wouldn't go back to the office just because I lack social interaction I would rather take up some hobbies that take me among people.

Also a huge benefit for me is that the time I would spend commuting I spend walking my dog instead.

not to mention I get up when I get up, absolute freedom.

the downside is lack of separation between work and home since I can technically work anytime I want.

There are many ways to socialize beyond work. I have a few work friends but I have many more friends with deeper connections whom I chose to stay in touch with outside of work.

Work friends will always have an essence of “if I didn’t have to interact with you every day I probably wouldn’t seek you out on my own” and many of them are very aware of it.
