Greetings brother, why do you think socializing will be bad for you?
Without socializing you are cutting off the possibility to:
-Have many laughs and happy times, it is true that most people are much more happy and have many more laughs when they are with their friend.
-Have help, friends can help a lot of times both emotionally and in any way, they have a different set of knowledge than you and they might be able to help you with a lot of things, but also just be there for you emotionally. They can stop you from bad decisions and so on. On the other hand you should be your own boss and not do bad things just because of your friends.
-Similar to the above, it can give you a huge advantage if you have a big network of acquaintances.
-If we take in account these forums, as this is also socializing, if you are not here you are missing out on a ton of knowledge, wisdom, information, and help. Very very essential for a Zevist.
-so on.
Many part of life is about compromises, but in my opinion friends are less about compromises, then having no friends. You'll have to make compromises as well if you are not socializing. Or you don't even want to work? Because working itself is a compromise and let alone what compromises you'll have to make on the workplace itself.
But you shouldn't be worried about compromises, the whole point of compromises is that it's good for both or all parties.
You are not free at all, by not socializing, in fact you are tying your hands, faltering your potential, and missing out on an essential part of life.
