What's so bad about one keeping to themselves?

I was asked if I have always been this quiet. For majority of my life, yes.

Why do people make this out to be a bad thing?

I had literally just come back from lunch, in which I sat and socialized with 5 other people. I came back into the work training on time, and waited for the next session to begin.

I was sitting quietly to myself and that's when the comment was made. Mind you, we'd been in groups, exchanging info, and learning the entire day .

Some people need a few moments to themselves.
Why is that so hard to understand?

[c=004A59]I don't know. I'm the same way and always wished people could just let me be. When I was working, some days I went to lunch with everyone and some days not. On the days I went out to lunch with family or did errands, I got called "anti-social". On occasions when I read or studied through lunch hour, people got upset that I read classic lit and history instead of trashy novels. Everyone is always wanting to take me on as a project and "fix" me.[/c]
