My dad loves to accuse me of being anti social and saying "that's why you have no friends". We were at a friends place and there is a single guy there who I see a couple times a year. We aren't friends (acquaintances) and we do not share interests. That night he invited me out w/him to a symphony for the next day, just him and I. I turned him down and when I told my family what happened, they jumped down my throat and told me I was missing out on a social opportunity. Most important, I have a bf and I know he would be hurt if I went alone w/a guy to a concert. Also I don't find him all that interesting anyways, even as just a friend. Had this been a group thing, I wouldn't have said no. What in the heck is my family's problem? They find it weird that I wouldn't want my bf going alone w/some random chick as a social opportunity. This kind of stuff is extremely frustrating and makes me feel self conscious.
