feel like an outcast

Don't worry, I get a similar feeling OP.

All of my friends and pretty much everyone else uses social media way more than me and are always talking to people, I tend to avoid it largely because I like having alone time without having to respond to constant messages. I do find it tends to distance me slightly though, especially as my friends are often on Skype every night as well which I largely opt out of. Makes me feel kind of aloof and like I'm the odd one out.

Pretty much exactly in your situation. Seems like all my eggs are in one basket with my current girlfriend. Not sure what happens if we break up, my social life is dwindling and I am not at all active on social media.

Don't be sad OP I'm kind of like you. Apart from talking to two or three friends occasionally I am not every active on social media. As a matter of fact, I sometimes force myself to post bullshit like "wow great song" or "great movie" with a YouTube link just to get it over with. Just use your Facebook to fill out your hobbies and what bands you listen to, what movies you like, etc. so people get to empathize with you and maybe talk to you.

i'm like you OP
i've realized the older you get the less that shit matters
seriously who gives a fuck, i don't
i'm happy with the few friends i have, fuck it

Nah. You're not alone. I even feel separated even from my own family. You don't need to force yourself to fit in. I never really got in too social media and i am now used to being in isolation. Though i do try to socialize from time to time just to stave off insanity.

This shit sucks, mane. I wonder how many messages does the usual guy/girl receive and send using Facebook. I can logout and stay away for a month and I won't receive any. It feels I'm missing out.
