    That may or may not be true, but that still doesn't solve my issue haha. I just want to be left alone (not that I'm a selfish a-hole or anything, I think I'm actually usually pretty warm/amiable/nice, especially to my parents/family/random strangers I encounter.)

    tell people youre not interested in that youre not interested. This is the real world now your days of being a basement kid in highschool are over you actually need to interact with people outside of the house, if you didnt want to do this you should have stayed at home. upu cant please everybody and the sooner you realize that the sooner you will become successful in life. you think youre going to stand out in an interview trying to play the nice guy who doesnt step on any toes game... maybe at the aspca or some nice non-profit for profit.

    People have a right to be alone. In University there's plenty of guys that just want to focus on academics and save the relationships for when they have a career established.
    Take a break from politics once in awhile, it's good for you.

    I'm only 19, so a ring would be very peculiar this early. Even then, who knows if they are even romantically interested in me? It's just the interactions that I want to reduce lol.

    Honestly it's a very stupid problem to have. Just turn them down gently when they give you their number.

    Yes, that is true. I don't think I'll ever want a relationship (I like to think of myself as relatively celibate), though, as it doesn't seem like something that's for me. I'm not gay either (addressed to one of the posters above that asserted so) as I know I'm attracted to females.

    Guess you're just gonna have to cowboy up and tell them to kick rocks. In a nice way, of course.

    I guess.

    I know you have to interact to be successful in the private sector, but that's not where I want to go with my career; I'd like to join the USAR as a General Surgeon provided I can make it into and through Medical School. I am really apt at social interactions when I deem it necessary (i.e., university admissions interviews), but when it's just small talk or a pointless interaction, I am really amateur at it.

    Yea... I'm thinking the OP is just trying to stir up some controversey.

    They'll only hit on introverts if they're very sexy, or putting an air of being a "troubled teen" that they find challenging/exciting.

    All the women I know gravitated to the tall handsome smooth-talking funny man. Not the introvert in the corner or the extroverted slapstick idiot with the lampshade on his head.

    Interviews aren't social interactions. They're interviews.

    I still think it's just a show off thread.

    I'm not the introvert in the corner or the lampshade guy and I'm certainly not trying to stir up controversy. What's even controversial about anything I've said so far? sigh

    I suppose a better way to describe myself is someone who only talks when needed or appropriate, such as in a study group, cooperative project, or an admissions interview, for example.

    Well obviously they are just trying to befriend the OP in order to steal his study notes!

    Then get a pet rat. Or a wolverine. No, get a spider... a snake. One from Australia. Nobody'll mess with you then.
