You say socializing doesn't interest you, but you also say you get paranoid about how people perceive you. So NO you do care about socializing, you're just looking for an excuse.

I'm not sure.....I think that it is possible for a person to not want to socialize but still worry about what other people think at the same time. In other words the person doesn't want to make new friends but is still worried about what strangers think of him.
