i was thinking about the extreme social needs of a few people i know and i came upon an interesting discussion.
i questioned..."Do I' need people...
i thought about this for a bit, and here is my conclusion.
i believe that in this body there is a biological and emotional Need to be loved and understood and to belong(or share with like kind). i feel that inherently, i do need social interactions of some sort.
But i dont understand why i would need social interaction...i mean, i dont necessarily like it, i normally cant wait to get out of it, and for the most part, i wish that i didnt need it. for starters) most people annoy me, 2)most others' topics are Incredibly mundane, 3)a persons appearance seems Way too important during these 'meetings', and there is all this Etiquette of what to say and not say...regardless of whether or not its true.
so to know that as a basic need this social interaction must take place, allows me to be mindful of when i am approached by someone who starts a conversation. Im usually thinking in my mind, do i smile now? oh yes, nod...ok and heres a Great chance for me to interrupt and leave.
