The last year made this very obvious but I’ve noticed that in general my social skills deteriorate quite rapidly when I spend a day or two by myself at home.

The thing is I could be at home messaging girls all day or I could be in public just chatting to an old lady at the shops - the latter is still better at enhancing my social skills overall. Even just being around people without necessarily talking to them.

When I spend time alone I become withdrawn and dull, and it takes me a while to swap into the social mode.

Does anyone else feel this way?
