Not socialising is bad for your social skills.

Internet socialising is not enough, I mean you need real life face-to-face interaction to keep your social skills sharp.

I don't think having any kind of knowledge or opinions is going to affect things.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Real life socializing is necessary? Damnnnm.

Oh well, I DO socialize with my family.

I am thinking of philosophizing and analyzing becomes such a habit that it is hard to not compulsively slip it into normal social chit chat even if it's not the other person's bag (baby) probably means oneself is rather too obsessed with philosophy and analytics.

Depends what kinds of friends/social structure you want to have.

As for me, all philosophy and no reality people I rarely interact with. But it's the same for assholes so take that for what it's worth.
