For non-parents - of course it is! It's like listening to people blathering about soccer when you haven't watched a match since Italia 90I mean it shouldn't surprise me, but it can be awful dull.

That might change. I'm much better now, at almost-48, at socialising than I used to be when I was younger. Small talk just comes easily to me now, somehow - and moving beyond it and getting to know people a little bit without having to hang out with them for years. I just needed practice, I thinkI find my social anxiety has gotten worse with age
Agreed! After SUCH a social and busy December, I'm only just now coming out of winter hibernation. I MUCH prefer 1:1 or small 3-4 people groups.
I find my social anxiety has gotten worse with age, too, which kinda blows. But I also care less about forcing myself into situations when I feel socially awkward, which is also nice.
This is vital. The majority of my friends have a lot more social energy than me and for a while, I was telling myself there was something wrong with me. I'm practicing saying no more now and its helping. Its OK to not want to go to everything.Mine got kind of bad for a few years but has really improved over the last year or so, as in like I almost hardly notice it anymore. I just learned to stop putting so much pressure on myself to go out and be mr. social. Definitely helped. Like you were saying about having a busy December, I took it way handier this year and just met up with a handful of friends instead of going nuts trying to meet up with absolutely everyone. Think it helped, didn't get all run down and sick like I've done every other December over the last few years.

I am AWFUL in social situations. It’s ridiculous.
Any of you - if we ever meet, please don’t take it personally.

Very much in keeping with @ann post 's interpretation of wokeness being equivalent to 80s Irish public Catholicism
