I'm very introverted which, in the past, used to bug me because I felt like something was wrong with me. I kept feeling like I should try and be more social. But, a few years ago I took a Myer's Brigg personality test which categorized me as an INTJ. It was at that point I realized that, hey, the "way" I am is simply my personality type and not due to something being "wrong".
I genuinely enjoy my time alone and I've never felt lonely (don't have a girlfriend nor do I want one). I enjoy talking to people at work and we often go out for lunch or a movie but that's the extent of my desire to spend time with them. Most everyone likes me and I seriously doubt anyone thinks I'm an asperger weirdo.

Yeah, this whole thread is just describing life as an introvert. Message boards are full of introverts. They are also full of INTJ's. INTJ's are supposed to be like 2% of the general population but when people do personality tests on boards I participate in they come up like 15-20% (I am one as well). I don't think IQ has anything to do with it.

I guess I did it wrong. I'm not saying I have a high IQ, but while sick I went thru a lot of stuff my mom saved and apparently in middle school I took an IQ test and she said she didn't show me on purpose lol.
I always figured it was better to be in a posistion to hire/fire people than worry about making friends.

She said I was too smart for my own good lol. I remember taking test but I thought it was for the gifted program and I decided I didn't want to go hang out with those people on another campus. My parents never pushed me to do anything.
The people I consider really smart are smart from a practical stand point. Not really book learning or the ability to solve a math problem that has no real world implications for most people.
