Because I’ve experienced the same thing. I’ve been out with girls or at a party and sometimes I don’t want to socialize anymore, especially with girls. But the thing is, I’ve realized why this is the case. I’ve been out with the hope of getting laid, and if the girls were significantly drunker than me, making it hard to have a conversation, or they all were clearly showing interest in other guys, I would start to feel anxious and would have to desire to continue to socialize. But I wouldn’t this was because I’m an introvert, it’s because my expectations were too high, I started to feel anxious when they weren’t met, and my social battery went to empty as a cope. What I find is that I never get this feeling when I’m having a good time or my interactions are going well, only when I face rejection, have awkward encounters, etc. which reinforce my social anxiety.

You’re not an introvert, you just have social anxiety
