That's a great quote, and something I've thought a lot about.

I'm sort of the same way with friends. I've never had many, and don't really like having a lot. When I lived in Chicago I had a group of International Relations students that I'd "meet" with a few times a week for Model UN, and we occasionally went out to dinner, but that's about all the socializing I can stand, it just sucks the energy right out of me. Which is weird, since stuff like job interviews and public speaking don't affect me at all, and I actually enjoy that sort of thing - it's less personal, that's probably why.

That's pretty much how I feel too.
