Major in Psychology: 6 Things We Are Tired of Hearing
3. I’m antisocial
This one is more of an annoyance to us than anything. Antisocial behaviour is NOT wanting to avoid people and sit in sweatpants watching Netflix. That behaviour you’re referring to is “asocial”. According to the Encyclopedia of Children’s Health “antisocial behaviors are disruptive acts characterized by covert and overt hostility and intentional aggression toward others”. I’m sure when you say you’re feeling antisocial you don’t particularly mean “I would like to do things considered hostile and unacceptable in society”.
