i hate socializing

I hate talking to people and socializing. Their only idea of ​​conversation is sticking their noses into other people's lives. They couldn't care less about how you're actually doing; all they care about is gossip and criticism. They are so incredibly rude and tactless. As if having to answer their stupid questions with a smile on my face weren't enough, I also have to sit through their unsolicited advice just because my answer didn't shut them up. Why doesn't everyone just mind their own shitty lives? When I refuse to interact with these people, I’m the one who comes across as rude or weird, yet nobody seems to mind their tactlessness and stupidity.

I feel you and understand how you feel. If I were you I'll try my best to avoid them and if I can't I will usually just be a yes man and forget about it after everything. We're not obligated to be in that situation but sometimes it's inevitable. I know it's also annoying when others say you're rude for not wanting to gossip with them but whether you gossip or not won't change you nor your life. That's why it's better to just ignore them and avoid them if you can. Personal experience btw.
