I am highly unsocial and people irritate me to death. I don't like being around people. I don't get sleep at night thinking all kinds of weird things and how angry I am at people for no specific reason. My boyfriend is highly social and I feel he doesn't understand and sometimes ignores my social barriers and just assumes I am also like him. He includes me in his comments and general assumptions. His family is also the same. They are too much of the type of family people while it just gets of my nerve when I see them sticking to one another all the time. I can't handle it. And the worse part they feel I also should stay happy, smiling and together together everyday just like them. While the truth of the matter is I am not happy and it takes me immense energy to pretend to be like them. It's just so so irritating. And the list goes on.

Hi. Every one has their own personality traits. If you don't like being social, that's ok. The only thing that you need to do is to have a Frank talk to your boy friend regarding how you are and the need to respect each other's personal boundaries. In case, you feel like making a change in your behavioural pattern, you can seek a consultation from a psychiatrist or a psychologist in order to undergo behavioural therapy sessions.
Next Steps
Talk to your boy friend regarding the need to respect personal boundaries.
