Losing interest in socializing: Is anyone else feeling this?

It used to be different; I was constantly out grabbing coffee, glued to my phone, texting, hopping on Skype—you name it. Now? I don't even have a Facebook account. If someone calls me out of the blue, I’ll cook up any excuse in the book just to get out of it. Honestly, I just don't have the energy. I know deep down that if I keep this up, I’m going to burn through my entire social circle pretty fast, but at this point, I truly couldn't care less 🙂
Maybe it’s just a phase. I really hope so.
Same here.😢
It's actually starting to get pretty annoying. My girlfriends are getting pissed because I never want to go anywhere. They think I'm being weird, but when they ask what's wrong, I tell them nothing is. And honestly, nothing is. It's just like I'm perpetually exhausted, so talking feels like too much work. Even when I am out with people, I'm barely contributing—my answers are basically just two or three words long. I actually have things I want to say, but I just feel so drained that I end up thinking "it doesn't matter," so I keep it short and move on.🙄 People literally have to pull words out of me like pulling teeth.🙂
