I love talking with interesting people, having lively discussions and so on. And then after that, I like to go somewhere quiet and recharge for a while. I've noticed that if I am fully-charged and feeling good about myself, those social times are great. However, if I'm already worn down, then I do things to avoid being in social situations. It's sort of a protective response. I agree with her – I can be social, and I need to regain some energy after those times.
