As a new semester of college begins I will be forced to confront the fact I will have many chances to befriend and connect to others, but in those moments I will have no desire to. How tf can I want friends but have no urge to reach out until I’m sad?

It is genuinely ok to be a private person and not want to connect. It is not a moral or legal or human *obligation* -- you are not violating anything by keeping to yourself most of the time. Try to examine how the sadness waa conditioned - for me yes there is natural desire but it's largely society to blame for making me feel like shit about a choice I preferred making. Your job in life is not maximizing friends and that's okay.

It’s good to recognize both your desire to connect and your limits for socializing and overload. Finding the right answer for you will depend on your context, but it begins with that recognition.
