Sometimes I have difficulty going to class because I'm afraid I'll be judged, or God forbid the professor puts us into a small group to do an activity.
Any thoughts or opinions are welcome.

Yep. I've felt this way for awhile now, in fact I talked to my wife about it awhile back when I left our sons 21st birthday party early cause of the big crowd in the bar that night. I think she just kinda blew me off as not wanting to be sociable.
Sunday at both my mom's and her sister's house for Easter I just sat outside by myself at mom's. There were some people with me at the other place but one was my son so that helped and the other was my nephew and we talked football the whole time. Otherwise I didn't talk to anybody else all day at either place.
I just hate being around crowds and making small talk. I would rather just stay home in my own surroundings in my Chiefs Man Cave and chill.
